BCSA GETS READY FOR CE MARKING

摘要

The BCSA is preparing for CE marking (CEM) of structural steelwork to be mandatory across all member EU states in July 2014 (including the UK and Republic of Ireland). CEM is a way of ensuring a product meetsthe minimum requirement for health and safety. All steel sections and structural bolts are assessed against a "harmonised" standard. This standard is the same across all member states. "The standards list the performance characteristics for the product, the values for which are declared by the manufacturer on CE marking," says BCSA director of engineering David Moore.
