Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2021/1183 of 16 July 2021 amending Implementing Decision (EU) 2019/450 as regards the publication of references of European Assessment Documents for certain construction products (Text with EEA relevance) THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION, Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 305/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 March 2011 laying down harmonised conditions for the marketing of construction products and repealing Council Directive 89/106/EEC OJ L 88, 4.4.2011, p. 5. , and in particular Article 22 thereof, Whereas: (1) In accordance with Regulation (EU) No 305/2011, Technical Assessment Bodies are to use methods and criteria provided in European Assessment Documents, the references of which have been published in the Official Journal of the European Union, for assessing performance of construction products covered by those documents in relation to their essential characteristics. (2) In accordance with Article 19 of Regulation (EU) No 305/2011, following several requests by manufacturers for European Technical Assessments, the organisation of Technical Assessment Bodies has drawn up and adopted 16 European Assessment Documents and one correction The European Assessment Document relating to dowels for structural joints under static and quasi-static loading is a correction of the European Assessment Document published in the OJ L 359, 29.10.2020. . (3) The European Assessment Documents drawn up and adopted by the Technical Assessment Bodies relate to the following construction products: Internal fire resisting and/or smoke control single and double leaf doorsets made of special steel-frame profiles; Glass fibre mesh for reinforcement of cementitious or cement-based renderings; Mineral pre-coated ceiling panels; External thermal insulation composite system (ETICS) with rendering on boards based on polystyrene cement; Glued laminated timber made of solid hardwood; L- or Z-shaped metal sheets for the increase of punching shear resistance of flat slabs or footings and ground slabs; Couplers for mechanical splices of reinforcing steel bars; Prefabricated wastewater treatment plants for at least 51 up to 500 PT; Thermal and sound insulating dry screed systems with prefabricated flooring elements; Load-bearing external wall and partition wall kit; Waterproofing admixture for concrete; Plastic anchors for redundant non-structural systems in concrete and masonry; Stainless steel point fastener for glass claddings; Structural panelled building kit; Modular pre-fabricated cemetery construction structure; Drainage system used in underground rock caverns; Dowels for structural joints under static and quasi-static loading. (4) The European Assessment Documents drawn up and adopted by the organisation of Technical Assessment Bodies satisfy the demands to be met in relation to the basic requirements for construction works set out in Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 305/2011. It is therefore appropriate to publish the references of those European Assessment Documents in the Official Journal of the European Union.

(5) The list of references of European Assessment Documents is published by Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2019/450 Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2019/450 of 19 March 2019 on publication of the European Assessment Documents (EADs) for construction products drafted in support of Regulation (EU) No 305/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council (OJ L 77, 20.3.2019, p. 78). . For reasons of clarity, references of new European Assessment Documents should be added to that list. (6) Implementing Decision (EU) 2019/450 should therefore be amended accordingly. (7) In order to enable the use of the European Assessment Documents as early as possible, this Decision should enter into force on the day of its publication, HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
