BS EN 10088-4:2009 Stainless steels. Technical delivery conditions for sheet/plate and strip of corrosion resisting steels for construction purposes
BS EN 10088 is the European standard that specifies the technical delivery conditions for hot or cold rolled sheet/plate and strip of standard and special grades of corrosion resisting stainless steels for construction purposes in addition to the general technical delivery conditions specified in BS EN 10021 General technical delivery requirements for steel products.
It has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of the EU Construction Products Directive (89/106/EEC).
BS EN 10088-4 does not apply to components manufactured by further processing of the product forms listed above with quality characteristics altered as a result of such further processing.
