This document gives complementary provisions to EN 1090-2 for the use of reclaimed structural components for the execution of steel structures to EXC1, EXC2 and EXC3 (see EN 1090-2). The provisions apply to products used in structures to be designed (see EN 1993-1-1) for quasi-static loading and not subject to fatigue loading.

NOTE 1 The conditions of implementation of this document in a country are at the discretion of the national Standardization Body. Non contradictory requirements, e.g. with regard to seismic loading, can be added.




This document gives requirements for the reusability assessment of reclaimed structural components and constituent products. This document also gives requirements for the quality assessment of plates, hot rolled profiles and hot finished or cold formed hollow sections in carbon steel used as constituent products (see EN 1090-2). This includes the declaration of mechanical and geometrical properties as well as weldability.




NOTE 2 The properties to be declared are those listed as required relevant properties to be specified as described in EN 1090-2:2018+A1:2024, Clause 5.1.




The requirements on quality assessment in this document also apply to the assessment of the mechanical and geometrical properties as well as weldability of fabricated products. The recommendations for the assessment of connections however, and in particular of welds, are non exhaustive and only informative. This document does not apply to cold-formed structural steel sections and sheeting as described in EN 1090-4, or mechanical fasteners.
