EN 1317-5:2007+A2:2012 (E) 6 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this European Standard, the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1 testing laboratory competent laboratory, which measures, examines, tests, calibrates or otherwise determines the characteristics or performance of materials or products within the scope of this document. A laboratory accredited by a signatory of EA (European co-operation for accreditation) or the appropriate statutory instrument, within the scope of this document, in the territory where the test was executed may be presumed to be competent 3.2 working life period of time during which the performance of a product will be maintained at a level that enables the product to fulfil the requirements of this document (i.e. the essential characteristics of a product to meet or exceed minimum acceptable values, without incurring major costs for repair or replacement). The working life of a product depends upon its inherent durability and normal maintenance NOTE A clear distinction should be made between the assumed economically reasonable working life for a product, which underlies the assessment of durability in technical specifications, and the actual working life of a product in a works. The latter depends on many factors beyond the control of the producer, such as design, location of use (exposure), installation, use and maintenance. The assumed working life can thus not be interpreted as being a guarantee given by the producer. 3.3 durability ability of a product to maintain its required performance over time, under the influence of foreseeable actions. Subject to normal maintenance, a product should enable properly designed and executed works to fulfil specified requirements for an economically reasonable working life of the product 3.4 manufacturer (synonymous with “producer”) organization with legal responsibility for placing a CE-Mark on a product (see Annex ZA) 4 Requirements 4.1 Performance under impact 4.1.1 Safety barriers Safety barriers shall be tested to and shall conform to the requirements of EN 1317-1 and #EN 1317-2$. 4.1.2 Vehicle parapets Vehicle parapets shall be tested to and shall conform to the requirements of EN 1317-1 and
