General Information
Frequently Asked Questions
CEN/TC 459/SC 4/WG 3 is a Subcommittee within the European Committee for Standardization (CEN). It is named "Corrosion resistant reinforcing steels". This committee has published 1 standards.
CEN/TC 459/SC 4/WG 3 develops CEN standards in the area of Information technology. Currently, there are 1 published standards from this subcommittee.
The European Committee for Standardization (CEN) is a public standards organization that brings together the national standardization bodies of 34 European countries. CEN provides a platform for developing European Standards (ENs) and other technical documents in relation to various products, materials, services, and processes, supporting the European Single Market.
A Subcommittee (SC) in CEN operates under a Technical Committee and focuses on a specific subset of the TC's scope. Subcommittees develop standards and technical specifications in their specialized area, reporting to their parent Technical Committee. They may also have working groups for detailed technical work.
This document specifies product characteristic test/assessment method and the way of expressing test results for stainless steel as defined in EN 10088-1:2014 and designated as in EN 10088-1:2014 for the use of the reinforcement of concrete.
It applies to stainless steel products with ribbed or indented surfaces, which are in the form of:
- bars and coils (rod, wire);
- sheets of factory-made machine-welded fabric;
- lattice girders and hybrid lattice girders composed by stainless steel and by weldable reinforcing steel according to prEN 10080:2023.
Steels according to this document have a ribbed, indented or smooth surface.
NOTE The protrusions between indentations of indented reinforcing steel have the same function as transverse ribs of ribbed reinforcing steel. There is no definition, which specifies the difference between ribbed and indented surface geometry. Therefore, in this document, the same bond parameters are used for ribbed and indented steel.
This document does not apply to:
- pre-stressed stainless steels;
- indented strip;
- stainless steel tube filled with carbon steel swarf, which is then hot or cold reduced;
- stainless steel smooth bar with weld material deposited on it;
- galvanized reinforcing steel;
- epoxy-coated reinforcing steel.
