    LR EN 10204 Type 3

    Uploaded by

    Jym Genson
    EN 10204:2004 is a standard that specifies different types of material certification, including Type 3.2 certification. A true Type 3.2 certification is produced by the manufacturer and includes test results verified by an independent third party inspector. Some companies provide an "intent of" Type 3.2 certification by validating a Type 3.1 certificate from the manufacturer through additional verification tests witnessed by a third party. Lloyd's Register can provide this "intent of" certification to confirm material compliance when it has been through an intermediate handler. EN 10204:Type 3.2 certification is increasingly important to ensure materials meet requirements for projects.

    An increasing requirement in the industry is to provide proof that materials meet defined
    chemical and mechanical properties. This has led to the authentication of material certificate
    requirements under the standard EN 10204:2004.

    EN 10204:2004 has its origin in the German standard DIN 50049, which specified certificate types.
    These types were adopted when EN 10204 was first published in 1991.

    What is a true Type 3.2 certification?

    An EN 10204 type 3.2 certificate declares the products or material supplied by the manufacturer are in
    compliance with the requirements of the order order. The certificate is prepared by the manufacturer's
    authorised inspection representative (such as Lloyd's Register).True EN 10204:2004 Type 3.2
    certification is produced by the manufacturer, with test results supplied. The independent third-party
    inspector will have witnessed the test results and verified the material's identification and traceability
    through objective evidence.

    Certification "to the intent of" Type 3.2

    A common practice in the industry is for the purchaser to order material from an intermediate material
    handler or stockist. That handler may select material that has only been certified by the manufacturer
    using a Type 3.1 certificate. In the standard, this has not been verified by a third-party inspector.
    However, it is widely accepted that material with a Type 3.1 certificate can be "validated" to the intent of
    Type 3.2. This happens when the material handler uses an independent third-party to validate the
    material by way of verification tests.
    Lloyd's Register can provide "intent-of" Type 3.2 certification by visiting the material handler to identify
    the material to be verified. This includes:

    Confirmation the material is traceable back to the ladle chemical analysis which may be in the form of a
    Type 3.1 certificate.
    Our surveyor also visits the test house to witness all additional testing of the material necessary to
    confirm compliance with the specification.
    It is important in this instance that the purchaser knows and accepts an "Intent-of" Type 3.2 certificate.
