Scope
This European Standard defines terms used in the field of the assessment of the release, and the content, of dangerous substances from / in construction products.
The terms are classified under the following main headings:
- Terms related to products and substances (general; soil, groundwater and surface water; indoor air);
Terms related to sampling and sample preparation;
Terms related to test procedures and test results (general; soil, groundwater and surface water; indoor air, radiation).
An alphabetical index is provided.
Purpose
EN 16687:2015 needs to be updated, because new terms and definitions have been specified by the working groups of CEN/TC 351 since 2015. These terms and definitions should be taken on board in order to ensure a common language in all CEN/TC 351 deliverables. In addition the definitions of some terms, which have been used by several works groups, deviate from each other and will be aligned by the proposed revision of EN 16687.
