ISO 15928-1:2003 is a standard that outlines a systematic approach to describing the structural safety performance of houses. It aims to meet user needs, provide performance descriptions, establish parameter descriptions, and define evaluation processes. The standard covers various factors that can impact structural safety, including permanent, imposed, wind, seismic, snow, and other actions, as well as the resistance of the structure itself.

The purpose of ISO 15928-1:2003 is to enable the evaluation of the design and construction of houses, facilitate international trading of houses or their sub-systems, and support the development of risk-management tools for the protection of houses. The standard provides a comprehensive overview of the factors that contribute to the structural safety of a house, allowing for a holistic understanding of its overall safety performance.

In essence, ISO 15928-1:2003 serves as a guideline for assessing and describing the structural safety of houses. It helps to establish a common language and framework for evaluating and communicating the performance of houses in relation to structural safety considerations.
