Committee:: B/542 - Roofing and cladding products for discontinuous laying
Categories:: Information management | Standardization. General rules | Construction | Construction materials and building | Building elements | Roofs | Building protection | Waterproofing

Scope

Scope statement of the proposed new committee (The scope shall precisely define the limits of the field of activity. Scopes shall not repeat general aims and principles governing the work of the organization but shall indicate the specific area concerned).

Standardization of materials and components used for roofs design and construction processes, as well as materials used for waterproofing in construction.

Purpose

Purpose and justification for the proposal. (The purpose and justification for the creation of a new technical committee shall be made clear and the need for standardization in this fieldshall be justified. Clause C.4.13.3 of Annex C of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1 contains a menu of suggestions or ideas for possible documentation to support and purpose and justification of proposals. Proposers should consider these suggestions, but they are not limited to them, nor are they required to comply strictly with them. What is most important is that proposers develop and provide purpose and justification information that is most relevant to their proposals and that makes a substantial business case for the market relevance and the need for their proposals. Thorough, well-developed and robust purpose and justification documentation will lead to more informed consideration of proposals and ultimately their possible success in the ISO IEC system.)

The creation of a new technical Committee "Roofing and waterproofing materials" will make it possible to develop a set of new ISO standards over the next years, whilst the current mode is slowing down its development. It will also allow to increase the value of global trade in roofing and waterproofing materials.
