BS EN 16508:2015 specifies performance requirements and design methods for temporary roofs
and encapsulations.It is possible to form the constructions in several ways:temporary roof which is supported by an existing permanent construction (Figure 1);temporary roof which is supported by a scaffold (Figure 2 and 3);temporary roof which is supported by another temporary construction (e.g. steel frame);temporary wall which is supported by a separate construction (Figure 4);encapsulation which is a complete temporary construction including roof, walls and corresponding
temporary supports (Figure 5).This European Standard sets out general requirements. These are substantially independent of the
materials of which the construction is made. This standard is intended to be used as the basis for
enquiry and design.Cross References:EN 1990EN 1991EN 1993EN 1995EN 1999EN 12811-1:2003EN 12811-2EN 12812:2008EN 13782All current amendments available at time of purchase are included with the purchase of this document.
