EN 1090-1 – CE labeling for steel or aluminium structural elements

EN 1090-1:2009/EC 1-2011 regulation will be effect beginning on July 1st, 2014. There is a provision for CE labeling, according to the 305/2011 European guideline, concerning aluminium and steel structural elements in construction: from metal stairs to lofts, from roofing to entire buildings (or part of). Regulation introduces Execution classes and concept, in terms of requirements for the creation of an entire building, a single element or just a simple detail.

As a consequence, it specifies an appropriate quality level on the strength of the safety that is desired. CE labeling therefore indicates if the building is in compliance with the expected use.
