This European Standard EN 13480 for metallic industrial piping consists of eight interdependent andnot dissociable Parts which are:
-Part 1: General;-Part 2: Materials;--Part 3: Design and calculation;--Part 4: Fabrication and installation;-Part 5: Inspection and testing;--Part 6: Additional requirements for buried piping;:CEN/TR 13480-7 Guidance on the use of conformity assessment procedures;Part 8: Additional requirements for aluminium and aluminium alloy piping.
Although these Parts may be obtained separately it should be recognised that the Parts are inter-dependant. As such the manufacture of metallic industrial piping requires the application of all therelevant Parts in order for the requirements of the Standard to be satisfactorily fulfilled.
working is limited to corrections and interpretations related to EN 13480.
