EN 13369 outlines specifications and basic performance criteria for unreinforced, reinforced, and prestressed precast concrete products. It also details the Assessment and Verification of Constancy of Performance (AVCP). These products are made of compact light-, normal-, and heavyweight concrete according to EN 206, with no appreciable amount of entrapped air other than entrained air. Concrete containing fibres for other than mechanical properties (steel, polymer or other fibres) are also covered.
EN 13369 acts as a reference standard for other standards to enable a more consistent approach to standardization in the field of precast concrete products and to reduce the variations brought about by a large number of standards produced in parallel by different groups of experts. At the same time, it allows those experts the flexibility to include variations in specific product standards where they are required.
Some European product standards refer to this document. They can include specific provisions that take precedence over the provisions of this document.
