This document describes a method of test for wood preservatives that are intended for use in wood to be exposed to the weather out of contact with the ground without the additional protection of a surface coating.The method is applicable to the testing of commercial or experimental preservatives applied by techniques appropriate to commercial practice. The method is applicable to chemical products used individually or in combination to prevent the development of decay and/or - optional - the development of disfiguring organisms in wood and, where suitable, in wood-based products.NOTE 1 The method can also be used to test other treated wood species and naturally durable timbers. It can be adapted for testing the field performance of other wood based systems and treatments designed to enhance durability, for example treated or untreated wood based composites, timber treated with non-biocidal systems, chemically modified or heat treated timber.NOTE 2 Altough the test is used to assess decay, it is possible to use the method to additionally assess stain or each separately when relevant.

This document specifies a procedure for artificial ageing of flexible sheets for underlays which are used under discontinuous roof coverings by means of UV-radiation, elevated temperature in combination with high relative humidity and elevated temperature in combination with accelerated air-speed.

This document describes a laboratory test method to determine the susceptibility of thermal insulation products used for construction against mould growth under specified climatic conditions.The method is applicable to both factory-made products and in situ formed products. Factory-made products include panels, mats, and rolls. In situ formed products are usually those that are delivered loose and installed by blowing-in, poring, or spraying-on, using water and/or binder, whether or not they are also treated using additives.Depending on the insulation manufacturer, the test is carried out with one of the conditions in Table 1. This condition is linked to worst case scenarios selected from real hygrothermal conditions that reflect the end use conditions experienced by insulation products, and to short test duration for mould test.This test method determines the susceptibility of a thermal insulation material to mould growth, but does not determine the suitability for use in a given design (wall, roof, etc.).This method does not predict the resistance of an insulation product to accidental water exposure resulting in saturation of the product (water damage).
