Sustainability of construction works - Environmental product declarations - Core rules for the product category of construction products

This European standard provides core product category rules (PCR) for Type III environmental declarations for any construction product and construction service. NOTE The assessment of social and economic performances at product level is not covered by this standard. The core PCR: - defines the parameters to be declared and the way in which they are collated and reported, - describes which stages of a product’s life cycle are considered in the EPD and which processes are to be included in the life cycle stages, - defines rules for the development of scenarios,  -  includes the rules for calculating the Life Cycle Inventory and the Life Cycle Impact Assessment underlying the EPD, including the specification of the data quality to be applied, - includes the rules for reporting predetermined, environmental and health information, that is not covered by LCA for a product, construction process and construction service where necessary, - defines the conditions under which construction products can be compared based on the information provided by EPD. For the EPD of construction services the same rules and requirements apply as for the EPD of construction products.

This draft amendment is submitted to CEN members for unique acceptance procedure. It has been drawn up by the Technical Committee
CEN/TC 350.

This draft amendment A1, if approved, will modify the European Standard EN 15804:2012. If this draft becomes an amendment, CEN
members are bound to comply with the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations which stipulate the conditions for inclusion of this amendment
into the relevant national standard without any alteration.

This draft amendment was established by CEN in three official versions (English, French, German). A version in any other language made
by translation under the responsibility of a CEN member into its own language and notified to the CEN-CENELEC Management Centre has
the same status as the official versions.

CEN members are the national standards bodies of Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia,
Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania,
Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and United
Kingdom.

Recipients of this draft are invited to submit, with their comments, notification of any relevant patent rights of which they are aware and to
provide supporting documentation.

This document (EN 15804:2012/FprA1:2013) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 350
“Sustainability of construction works”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR.
This document is currently submitted to the Unique Acceptance Procedure.

EN 15804:2012/FprA1:2013 (E)

1 Modification to 3.8
Replace "ISO 21930-1:2007" with "ISO 21930:2007".
2 Modification to NOTE of 5.1
Replace "See definition 3.4 and ISO14044:2006, clause 5.1" with "See definition 3.4 and
ISO 14044:2006, 5.3".
3 Modification to 6.3.2, first item in the list
Replace "dimensions to be specified” with “dimensions shall be specified".
4 Modification to 6.5
Replace the existing text of 6.5 with the following:
"The impact assessment is carried out for the following impact categories:
 global warming;
 ozone depletion;
 acidification of soil and water;
 eutrophication;
 photochemical ozone creation;
 depletion of abiotic resources (elements);
 depletion of abiotic resources (fossil).
The characterisation factors for GWP, ODP, AP, EP, POCP and ADP given in Annex C shall be used.
NOTE 1 The ‘accumulated exceedance’ method for AP and EP recommended by JRC is considered not to be ready for
standardization yet, because it needs a new regional set of characterisation factors, and because this method is not yet
common practice with the stakeholders nor available in databases. The method using the reserve base for ADP elements
recommended by JRC is not considered common practice.
If specific ADP fossil fuel values are known, these shall be used; any such use has to be stated.
Complementary and consistent factors may be used in order to achieve consistency between LCI data and
available characterisation factors.
NOTE 2 It is considered good practice to identify LCI data which has no calculated environmental impact within the
project report. This can help to identify the need for complementary and consistent characterisation factors for relevant LCI
flows."
5 Modification to 7.1, Table 2
Replace "Independent verification of the declaration” with “Independent verification of the declaration and
data”.
