4.1 General
The main function of geotextiles and geotextile-related products used in the construction and
rehabilitation of roads and pavements subjected to thermal, fatigue and reflective cracking is to reduce
the amount of cracking in a new pavement or asphalt overlay.
In addition, a barrier to top-down water ingress to the subbase and/or subgrade may be provided for.
This is achieved by reinforcement, stress relief, (interlayer) barrier or a combination of these functions.
The producer of the geotextile or geotextile-related product shall provide the data based on the results
of tests specified in this standard, as described in Tables 1 and 2.
For the assessment of durability aspects (weathering, alkaline resistance or corrosion resistance) the
tests described in Annex A shall be observed.
The characteristics shall be declared as described in the test methods given in Tables 1 and 2.

4.2 Presentation of characteristics
The characteristics specified in Tables 1 or 2 – except for durability – shall be expressed as mean values
and tolerance value(s) corresponding to the 95 % confidence level. They shall be given by the
manufacturer, based on the statistical interpretation of his internal quality control measurements.
Information on durability (weathering, alkaline resistance or corrosion resistance) shall be expressed in
accordance with the guidelines of Annex A.
4.3 Verification of Values
The compliance of characteristics with the values defined in Tables 1 and 2 shall be based on
measurements made on two representative samples (A and B), taken from two different rolls. Sampling
shall be made in accordance with EN ISO 9862.
The characteristics given in Table 1 or 2 shall be measured in accordance with the corresponding
standards on specimens prepared from sample A.
If the test results for a particular characteristic are within the tolerance value(s) given by the
manufacturer, the product is accepted as complying with respect to this characteristic.
If the test results for a particular characteristic are outside 1,5 times the tolerance value(s), the product
does not comply with respect to that characteristic.
If the test results for a particular characteristic are within 1 and 1,5 times the tolerance value(s),
specimens prepared from sample B shall be tested.
NOTE The 95 % confidence level corresponds to the mean value minus (and/or plus) 1,0 tolerance value(s).
If the test results of the sample B specimens for the same characteristic are within the given tolerance
value(s), the product is accepted as complying with respect to that characteristic. If the test results are
outside the tolerance value(s), the product is not accepted.
4.4 Characteristics relevant to specific conditions of use
The specification shall define which functions and conditions of use are relevant (see Tables 1 and 2).
The producer of the product shall provide the necessary data based on the requirements and test
methods described in this standard.
4.5 Dangerous substances
Regulations on dangerous substances may require verification and declaration on release, and
sometimes content, when construction products covered by this European Standard are placed on those
markets.
In the absence of European harmonized test methods, verification and declaration on release/content
should be done taking into account provisions in the place of use.
NOTE An informative database covering European and national provisions on dangerous substances is
available at the Construction website on EUROPA accessed through: https://ec.europa.eu/growth/tools-

5 Assessment and verification of constancy of performance - AVCP
5.1 General
The compliance of Geotextiles and geotextile-related products for use in pavements and asphalt
overlays with the requirements of this standard and with the performances declared by the
manufacturer in the DoP shall be demonstrated by:
— determination of the product type;
— factory production control by the manufacturer, including product assessment.
The manufacturer shall always retain the overall control and shall have the necessary means to take
responsibility for the conformity of the product with its declared performance(s).
5.2 Type testing
5.2.1 General
All performances related to characteristics included in this standard shall be determined when the
manufacturer intends to declare the respective performances unless the standard gives provisions for
declaring them without performing tests. (e.g. use of previously existing data, CWFT and conventionally
accepted performance).
Assessment previously performed in accordance with the provisions of this standard, may be taken into
account provided that they were made to the same or a more rigorous test method, under the same
AVCP system on the same product or products of similar design, construction and functionality, such
that the results are applicable to the product in question.
NOTE 1 Same AVCP system means testing by an independent third party [only for products covered by system
1+, 1 and 3], under the responsibility of a notified product certification body [only for products covered by system
1+ and 1].
For the purposes of assessment, the manufacturer's products may be grouped into families, where it is
considered that the results for one or more characteristics from any one product within the family are
representative for that same characteristics for all products within that same family
NOTE 2 Products may be grouped in different families for different characteristics.
NOTE 3 Reference to the assessment method standards should be made to allow the selection of a suitable
representative sample.
In addition, the determination of the product type shall be performed for all characteristics included in
the standard for which the manufacturer declares the performance:
— at the beginning of the production of a new or modified Geotextiles and geotextile-related products
for use in pavements and asphalt overlays (unless a member of the same product range), or
— at the beginning of a new or modified method of production (where this may affect the stated
properties); or
they shall be repeated for the appropriate characteristic(s), whenever a change occurs in the
Geotextiles and geotextile-related products for use in pavements and asphalt overlays design, in the raw
material or in the supplier of the components, or in the method of production (subject to the definition
of a family), which would affect significantly one or more of the characteristics.
Where components are used whose characteristics have already been determined, by the component
manufacturer, on the basis of assessment methods of other product standards, these characteristics
need not be re-assessed. The specifications of these components shall be documented.

Products bearing regulatory marking in accordance with appropriate harmonized European
specifications may be presumed to have the performances declared in the DoP, although this does not
replace the responsibility on the Geotextiles and geotextile-related products for use in pavements and
asphalt overlays manufacturer to ensure that the Geotextiles and geotextile-related products for use in
pavements and asphalt overlays as a whole is correctly manufactured and its component products have
the declared performance values.
5.2.2 Test samples, testing and compliance criteria
The number of samples of Geotextiles and geotextile-related products for use in pavements and asphalt
overlays to be tested/assessed shall be in accordance with Tables 3 and 4.

5.2.4 Shared other party results
A manufacturer may use the results of the product type determination obtained by someone else (e.g.
by another manufacturer, as a common service to manufacturers, or by a product developer), to justify
his own declaration of performance regarding a product that is manufactured according to the same
design (e.g. dimensions) and with raw materials, constituents and manufacturing methods of the same
kind, provided that:
— the results are known to be valid for products with the same essential characteristics relevant for
the product performance;
— in addition to any information essential for confirming that the product has such same
performances related to specific essential characteristics, the other party who has carried out the
11
determination of the product type concerned or has had it carried out, has expressly accepted to
transmit to the manufacturer the results and the test report to be used for the latter’s product type
determination, as well as information regarding production facilities and the production control
process that can be taken into account for FPC;
— the manufacturer using other party results accepts to remain responsible for the product having
the declared performances and he also:
— ensures that the product has the same characteristics relevant for performance as the one that
has been subjected to the determination of the product type, and that there are no significant
