What is the EN 15088 Standard?

The EN 15088 standard is a European standard that defines the technical delivery conditions for structural products made of aluminium and aluminium alloys. It specifies requirements for production processes, material properties, mechanical performance, and quality control.

This standard is applied to ensure the safe use of aluminium structural elements and to standardize conformity criteria in international projects.

How is EN 15088 Conformity Assessment Performed?

Conformity assessment activities under EN 15088 are carried out to verify whether products meet the relevant standard requirements.

• Receiving the application and defining the scope,
• Reviewing technical documentation,
• Evaluating production processes,
• Checking material certificates,
• Examining mechanical test results,
• Assessing dimensional and surface quality inspections,
• Completing certification if conformity requirements are fulfilled.

After certification, periodic surveillance activities are carried out to ensure the continuity of product conformity.

Why is EN 15088 Applied?

The EN 15088 standard is applied to ensure the safe and controlled use of aluminium structural products.

• Improving structural safety,
• Verifying product performance,
• Standardizing production quality,
• Ensuring compliance with international standards,
• Strengthening traceability and quality control processes,
• Increasing acceptance in global markets.

What are the Application Areas of EN 15088?

Aluminium structural products are used in many different engineering and construction fields.

• Aluminium façade systems,
• Load-bearing aluminium structures,
• Bridge and platform structures,
• Industrial facilities,
• Light steel–aluminium hybrid structures,
• Architectural structural elements,
• Modular building systems,
• Special engineering projects.

EN 15088 Equipment and Techniques

In conformity assessment processes, compliance of products with technical requirements is verified through various testing and inspection methods.

• Mechanical testing equipment,
• Chemical analysis methods,
• Dimensional measurement devices,
• Non-destructive testing methods (UT, PT, MT),
• Surface quality inspection equipment,
• Material certificates and traceability records,
• Calibrated measuring instruments,
• Laboratory test reports.

Advantages of EN 15088

• Provides lightweight and high-strength structural solutions.
• Builds trust through independent conformity assessment.
• Supports compliance with international standards.
• Contributes to verification of structural performance.
• Offers long-lasting and corrosion-resistant solutions.
• Provides competitive advantage in global markets.

Disadvantages of EN 15088

To maintain compliance with the requirements of the standard, regular quality control and monitoring processes must be carried out.

• Need for regular audits and inspections,
• Continuity of technical records,
• Requirement for consistent quality processes,
• Obligation to continuously comply with standard requirements.
