Abstract:
Efficient use of building construction materials are a key to success of a construction project. Nowadays, the successful selection of construction materials has to be based on stabile construction designed.Kosovo needed by the Customs Union agreement which came into force in 1997to remove the technical barriers in trade within a limited period, in order to ensure free circulation of products as required by the harmonization with the European Union process, and. In order to remove the negative effects of these barriers on international trade, some regulations were passed both within the World Trade Organization and regional authorities, in order that such regulations do not create new barriers against trade.The activities of the building- and construction sector are not only of influence on the human and quality of life, but it is also a sector with a high employment potential which relies heavily on local industry with close ties with all the other sectors, primarily the manufacturing industry.The aim of these Directives is to ensure free circulation of the construction materials, which are manufactured in our country, within Kosovo and the European Union member countries. Conformity with the harmonized standards, issued by the EU Commission is obligatory to ensure compliance of the construction materials with the directive.Basic Requirements:- Mechanical strength and stability (Disaster Directives)- Safety in case of fire (Fire Directives)- Hygiene, health and environment (Drinking Water and Hazardous Materials Directives)- Using Safety (Health and Safety Directives)- Protection against noise (Noise Directives)- Energy Saving and heat conservation (Heat Isolation Directives).“Safe Product” within the context of this Directive is the product which does not bear risk within the normal using period and under normal conditions or; which bears acceptable amount of risk and meets the basic requirements such as protecting public health, environment, flora and fauna.
