In the actual normative framework there is a tool that is poorly known, but in my humble opinion it has great importance and possibilities.
It’s so important that to define its contents there is a specific normative dedicated to it: HPS is nobly treated as a classification report. It’s the EN16035: “Hardware performance sheet (HPS). Identification and summary of test evidence to facilitate the inter-changeability of building hardware for application to fire resisting and/or smoke control doorsets and/or openable windows”.
