Together with BS 4971:2017, it supersedes PD 5454:2012 and BS 4971:2002." -- National foreword N2 - "BS EN 16893 covers many aspects of the design and construction process for housing heritage collections. These include : Sustainability -- Risk management -- Environmental strategy -- Building specifications -- Hazards identification -- Air quality/ventilation -- Infestation by pests/mould -- Fire protection/prevention -- Protection against water ingress -- Lighting provision. It‘s expected to bring a range of benefits to custodians of cultural heritage collections by defining the criteria and information necessary to make policy relating to conservation, that will in turn influence the outcome of building construction. ... This is a new standard but effectively revises the constructional parts of PD 5454:2012 to bring them up to date." ER -
