ISO 15928-1:2015 PDF Download

ISO 15928-1:2015 is a standard that provides a description of the structural safety performance of houses. It outlines the objectives, performance descriptions, parameter descriptions, and evaluation processes related to structural safety. The standard includes the description of various actions such as permanent, imposed, wind, seismic, and snow, as well as the structural resistance.

This standard is applicable for evaluating the design and construction of houses, facilitating international trading of houses or their sub-systems, and developing risk-management tools for house protection. It is important to note that ISO 15928-1:2015 does not specify a specific level of performance and does not provide a design method or criteria. Rather, it provides a comprehensive description of the structural safety of the house as a whole.

Annex A of the standard includes additional background information, guidance on its use, and suggestions on good practice. The references referred to in the notes are provided in the bibliography. It should also be noted that other parts of ISO 15928 cover aspects such as structural serviceability, durability, and other attributes of houses.
