This document specifies a classification and terminology of assistive products, especially produced or generally available, for persons to optimize functioning and reduce disability.
Assistive products used by a person to optimize functioning and reduce disability, but which require the assistance of another person for their operation, are included in the classification.
The following items are specifically excluded from this document:
—    items used for the installation of assistive products;
—    solutions obtained by combinations of assistive products that are individually classified in this document;
—    medicines;
—    assistive products and instruments used exclusively by healthcare professionals or by teachers;
—    non-technical solutions, such as personal assistance, guide dogs or lip-reading;
—    implanted devices;
—    financial support.

-   connections with:
o   steel bolts and pins with diameter not less than 5 mm;
o   aluminium bolts and pins with diameter not less than 8 mm;
o   rivets and thread forming screws with diameter not less than 4,2 mm

EN 1999 applies to the design of buildings and civil engineering and structural works in aluminium. It complies with the principles and requirements for the safety and serviceability of structures, the basis of their design and verification that are given in EN 1990 - Basis of structural design. EN 1999 is only concerned with requirements for resistance, serviceability, durability and fire resistance of aluminium structures. Other requirements, e.g. concerning thermal or sound insulation, are not considered. EN 1999 is intended to be used in conjunction with: - EN 1990 "Basis of structural design" - EN 1991 "Actions on structures" - European Standards for construction products relevant for aluminium structures - prEN 1090-1: Execution of steel structures and aluminium structures - Part 1: Requirements for conformity assessment of structural components5 - prEN 1090-3: Execution of steel structures and aluminium structures - Part 3: Technical requirements for aluminium structures5 EN 1999 is subdivided in five parts: EN 1999-1-1 Design of Aluminium Structures: General structural rules. EN 1999-1-2 Design of Aluminium Structures: Structural fire design. EN 1999-1-3 Design of Aluminium Structures: Structures susceptible to fatigue. EN 1999-1-4 Design of Aluminium Structures: Cold-formed structural sheeting. EN 1999-1-5 Design of Aluminium Structures: Shell structures.

The Guide provides general terms and definitions concerning standardization and related activities. It is intended to contribute fundamentally towards mutual understanding amongst the members of ISO and IEC and the various governmental and non-governmental agencies involved in standardization at international, regional and national levels.
