Building technology in Europe. Final report of the EURATEK project; Suomalainen rakennusmateriaali- ja rakennusteknologia yhdentyvaessae Euroopassa. Teknologiavertailu ja tutkimustrendit EURATEK-projektin loppuraportti

Abstract

The unification of EC standards will, starting in 1992, facilitate the export of industrial products from one EC country to another without the need for preliminary inspection in each country. The extension of a corresponding system to encompass the EFTA countries is also under preparation. The directive on building products is ready and its supplementary documents are under preparation. Finland does have an opportunity to participate on the Technical Committee of CENm which is working on the preparation of the necessary standards. The issue of determining conformity with standards has already been agreed by the EC and EFTA, and the organizations coordinating this, EOTC and EOTA, have been set up. Various forms of cooperation between the countries of Europe have also been created in the field of building research, e.g. ENBRI and EUROTECH. Finland has an opportunity to participate in the EC research programmes by raising funding corresponding to the EC share at home and finding partners from EC countries. The development of building components is breaking the bonds that have tied us to traditional materials. Industrialized building technology will make readymade components uniform, whether they be steel, concrete, timber, combination structures or composites.
