This European Standard specifies a test method for determining the mechanical viscoelastic properties of interlayer materials. The interlayers under examination are those used in the production of laminated glass and/or laminated safety glass.  The interlayer properties are needed in order to determine the load resistance of laminated glass in accordance with prEN 16612 [1].
From the tensile modulus in particular conditions of temperature and load duration, an interlayer can be placed into a family that relates to a specific interlayer shear transfer coefficient, .  This value can be used in the simplified calculation method described in prEN 16612 [1].
An informative annex explains the background to the determination of families relating to a specific interlayer shear transfer coefficient.

This European Standard gives a method of determining the design value of the bending strength of glass. It gives:
- the general method of calculation, and
- guidance for lateral load resistance of linearly supported glazed elements used as infill panels;
NOTE   Examples of lateral loads are wind loads and snow loads and self weight of sloping glass and climatic loads on insulating glass units.
This standard gives recommended values for the following factors for glass as a material:
-  material partial factors, γM;A and γM;v ;
-  factors for the load duration, kmod ;
- partial factor for actions, γG , γQ , and ψ ;
- factor for stressed edges, ke.
Most glass in buildings is used as infill panels.  Infill panels are in a class of consequence lower than those covered in EN 1990, so proposed values for the partial load factors, γQ and γG, are given for infill panels.
The action of climatic loads on insulating glass units is not covered by Eurocodes, so this document also gives proposed values of partial factors, ψ0, ψ1 and ψ2, for this action.
This European Standard does not determine suitability for purpose. Resistance to lateral loads is only one part of the design process, which may also need to take into account, for example:
- in-plane loading, buckling, lateral torsional buckling, and shear forces
- environmental factors (e.g. sound insulation, thermal properties),
- safety characteristics which cannot be calculated (e.g. fire performance, breakage characteristics in relation to human safety, security, containment).
This European Standard does not apply to channel shaped glass.

This European Standard assigns sound insulation values to all transparent, translucent and opaque glass products, described in the European Standards for basic, special basic or processed glass products, when intended to be used in glazed assemblies in buildings, and which exhibit properties of acoustic protection, either as a prime intention or as a supplementary characteristic.
This document outlines the procedure, by which glass products may be rated, according to their acoustic performance which enables assessment of compliance with the acoustic requirements of buildings.
Rigorous technical analysis of measurement data remains an option, but this standard is intended to enable the derivation of simpler indices of performance, which can be adopted with confidence by non-specialists.
By adopting the principles of this standard the formulation of acoustic requirements in Building Codes and for product specification to satisfy particular needs for glazing is simplified.
It is recognised that the acoustic test procedures contained within EN ISO 140-1 and EN ISO 140-3 relate only to glass panes and their combinations. Although the same principles should be followed as closely as possible, it is inevitable that some compromises are necessary, because of the bulkier construction of other glazing types, e.g. glass blocks, paver units, channel-shaped glass, structural glazing and structural sealant glazing. Guidelines on how to adapt the test procedures for these glazing types are offered in Clause 4.
All the considerations of this standard relate to panes of glass/glazing alone. Incorporation of them into windows may cause changes in acoustic performance as a result of other influences, e.g. frame design, frame material, glazing material/method, mounting method, air tightness, etc. Measurements of the sound insulation of complete windows (glass and frame) may be undertaken to resolve such issues.

This European Standard (all parts) covers the requirements for insulating glass units. The main intended uses of the insulating glass units are installations in windows, doors, curtain walling, structural sealant glazing, roofs and partitions.
The achievement of the requirements of this standard indicates that insulating glass units fulfil the needs for intended use and ensures by means of the evaluation of conformity to this standard that, visual, energetic, acoustic, safety parameters do not change significantly over time.
In cases where there is no protection against direct ultra-violet radiation or permanent shear load at the edges, as in structural sealant glazing systems, it is essential to follow additional European technical specifications (see EN 15434 and EN 13022-1).
Insulating glass units that are intended for artistic purposes (e.g. lead glass or fused glass) are excluded from the scope of this standard.
Glass/plastics composites are under the scope as long as the surface of contact with sealants is a glass component.
NOTE   For glass products with electrical wiring or connections for, e.g. alarm or heating purposes, other directives, e.g. Low Voltage Directive, may apply.
This European Standard gives definitions for insulating glass units and covers the rules for the system description, the optical and visual quality and the dimensional tolerances thereof and describes the substitution rules within an existing system description. It also provides informative guidance for the installation of insulating glass units in windows or facades.

This part of the European Standard defines how to calculate the energy performance indicators for road
lighting installations using the calculated power density indicator (PDI) DP and the calculated annual
energy consumption indicator (AECI) DE. Power density indicator (DP) demonstrates the energy needed
for a road lighting installation, while it is fulfilling the relevant lighting requirements specified in
EN 13201-2. The annual energy consumption indicator (DE) determines the power consumption during
the year, even if the relevant lighting requirements change during the night or seasons.
These indicators may be used to compare the energy performance of different road lighting solutions
and technologies for the same road lighting project. The energy performance of road lighting systems
with different road geometries or different lighting requirements cannot be compared to each other
directly, as the energy performance is influenced by, amongst others, the geometry of the area to be lit,
as well as the lighting requirements. The power density indicator (DP) and annual energy consumption
indicator (DE) apply for all traffic areas covered by the series of lighting classes M, C and P as defined in
EN 13201-2.

The decision on whether a road should be lit is defined in the national road lighting policy. This varies by country or municipality. Specific guidelines are usually available at national level for each country. This Technical Report does not give the criteria on which a decision to light an area can be made, nor on how a lighting installation should be used. Further guidance is given in CIE 115:2010 (Paragraph 1.2 and Annex A).
This Technical Report specifies the lighting classes set out in EN 13201-2 and gives guidelines on the selection of the most appropriate class for a given situation. To do this, it includes a system to define appropriate lighting classes for different outdoor public areas in terms of parameters relevant to guarantee the aims presented in introductions.
The methods presented in Clauses 5, 6 and 7 have to be considered as the starting points of a comprehensive approach for the normal road lighting. In that sense, the models cannot cover all the different road cases; they introduce general parameters and the impact on lighting requirements. Only the real situation and its unique characteristics (geometry of the road, marking, visual environment, difficulty of the navigation task, lack of visibility, risks of glares due to existing elements, local weather, specific users such as high rate of elderly or visually impaired people, etc.) can lead to a final determination of the appropriate lighting class applying risk evaluation techniques.
The visual needs of road users under reduced traffic volumes during certain periods of night or under varying weather conditions, and the positive benefits of reduced energy consumption and potential environmental improvements, are some of the considerations which justify the installation of adaptive road lighting. There are a variety of suitable instruments, devices and methods which can be used for the intelligent control of a road lighting installation. The control systems range from very simple to the most sophisticated applications. Annex B is of assistance in choosing the correct lighting level when adaptive lighting is used as it provides a more refined evaluation of the luminance or illuminance levels within the specific lighting class. Whilst the luminance or illuminance levels may be varied to suit reduced traffic volumes, weather conditions or other parameters the quality parameters of the applicable lighting class specified in EN 13201-2 should be maintained at all times.
Renewal or refurbishment of obsolete and uneconomic installations is important. It may be possible to obtain more adapted lighting levels with lower energy consumption using new designs and new technology. The upgrading of lighting and control systems will often give good cost-benefit ratios and short amortisation periods.
This document does not give guidelines on the selection of lighting classes for toll stations, tunnels or canals and locks.

EN 13022-2 deals with the assembling and bonding of glass elements in a frame, window, door or curtain walling construction, or directly into the building by means of structural bonding of the glass element into or onto framework or directly into the building. It gives information to the assembler to enable him to organise his work and comply with requirements regarding quality control. Structural sealant glazing can be incorporated into the façades (curtain walls, doors and windows) or roofs as follows: - either vertically; or - up to 7° from the horizontal, i.e. 83o from the vertical. This European Standard only deals with the bonding to glass surfaces, i.e. coated or uncoated or enamelled, and metallic surfaces, i.e. aluminium (anodised or coated), stainless steel, as considered in G.2 of EN 15434:2006+A1:2010.
