This European Standard is for prefabricated reinforced components of autoclaved aerated concrete to be used in building construction for:a) Structural elements:loadbearing wall components; retaining wall components; roof components; floor components; linear components (beams and piers). b) Non-structural elements:nonloadbearing wall components (partition walls); cladding components (without fixtures) intended to be used for external facades of buildings; small box culverts used to form channels forThe enclosure of services; components for noise barriers. Depending onThe type and intended use of elements for whichThe components are utilised,The components can be applied-in addition toTheir loadbearing and encasing function-for purposes of fire resistance, sound insulation andThermal insulation indicated inThe relevant clauses of this European Standard. Components covered byThis standard are only intended to be subjected to predominantly non-dynamic actions, unless special measures are introduced inThe relevant clauses of this European Standard.The term "reinforced" relates to reinforcement used for both structural and non-structural purposes.This European Standard does not cover:rules forThe application of these components in structures; joints (exceptTheir strength and integrity E of resistance to fire); fixtures; finishes for external components, such as tiling. NOTE AAC components may be used in noise barriers ifThey are designed to fulfil alsoThe requirements of EN 14388.
