Standard Guidelines

The standardisation of FCR/MCR products constitutes the last step in the development of the technology. A standardisation of the product would cut out low quality producers or force them to improve their production. These guidelines aim at helping official institutions, which issue quality standards for construction materials and building regulations on a national level, to design their own standards for FCR/MCR products which are valid for their specific country, taking into consideration the requirements and characteristics of the local context. The guidelines also help architects, engineers, building control institutions and contractors to execute their own tests, in the event that national standards are not available or in case the quality of the product is questioned.
