Lighting columns - Part 3-2: Design and verification - Verification by testing
This European Standard specifies the requirements for the verification of the design of steel, aluminium and concrete lighting columns by testing. It gives type tests and so does not cover testing for quality control purposes. It applies to post top lighting columns not exceeding 20 m height for post top lanterns and to lighting columns with brackets not exceeding 18 m height for side entry lanterns. The requirements for lighting columns made from materials other than concrete, steel or aluminium (for example wood, plastic and cast iron) are not specifically covered in this standard.
Lichtmaste - Bemessung und Nachweis - Teil 3-2: Nach durch Prüfung
Diese Europäische Norm enthält Anforderungen an den Nachweis durch Prüfung von Lichtmasten aus Stahl, Aluminium und Beton. Sie enthält Typprüfungen; Prüfungen zur Überwachung der Qualität sind nicht behandelt. Sie gilt für gerade Lichtmaste für Aufsatzleuchten mit einer Höhe von bis zu 20 m und für Auslegermaste für Ansatzleuchten mit einer Höhe von bis zu 18 m.
Die Anforderungen an Lichtmaste aus anderen Werkstoffen als Beton, stahl oder Aluminium (z. B. Holz, Kunststoff und Gusseisen) werden in dieser Norm nicht besonders behandelt
Diese Norm enthält Leistungsanforderungen für horizontale Lasten aus Wind. Passive Sicherheit und das Verhalten von Lichtmasten bei einem Anprall von Fahrzeugen werden nicht behandelt; für diese Lichtmasten gelten zusätzliche Anforderungen (siehe prEN40-2.1999).
