This document specifies a method for determining the fire resistance of parts of curtain walling and of the perimeter seal. It examines the fire resistance to internal and external fire exposure of: - the spandrel panel, i.e. downstand, upstand or a combination thereof; - the perimeter seal; - the fixing of the framing system (anchoring) used to attach the curtain walling to the floor element; - combinations thereof. NOTE 1 This document does not test fire spread that can be caused through cavities in the test specimen, i.e., inside of the mullions (see note to 9.1.2.3.3). Results from tests according to this document form the basis for classification of curtain walling type A (see 3.3 for definition). For curtain walling type B (see 3.4 for definition) results can be used to determine fire resistance of parts of a curtain walling to increase the field of application when previously tested to EN 1364-3. For intended classification EW and for corner/faceted specimens EN 1364-3 can be used. This document does not cover double skin façades, over-cladding systems and ventilated façade systems on external walls. It does not deal with the reaction to fire behaviour of curtain walling. This document is intended to be read in conjunction with EN 1363-1 and EN 1363-2 as well as EN 1364-3 for curtain walling type B. As per the type of curtain walling covered by this document, these are the ones included in EN 13119. NOTE 2 Annex A gives informative guidance on the principles of testing parts of curtain walling and the test method. NOTE 3 When tests are made to examine single elements (e.g. perimeter seal), those elements are to be installed as part of a curtain walling system.

 

This European Standard covers multi-firing sauna stoves in which the heating stones are separated from and indirectly heated by the fire and the flue gases and which may be re-fuelled with several fuel loads. This European Standard specifies requirements relating to the design, manufacture, construction, safety and performance (efficiency and emission) of multi-firing sauna stoves fired by wood logs and provides instructions for them. Furthermore, it also gives provisions for evaluation of conformity (i.e. initial type testing (ITT) and factory production control (FPC) and marking of these products. This standard is applicable to hand-fuelled intermittent burning multi-firing sauna stoves, which provide heat into the space where they are installed. These multi-firing sauna stoves may be supplied either as an assembled appliance or as a manufacturer’s pre-designed unit consisting of pre-fabricated components designed to be built on site in accordance with the manufacturer’s specified assembly instructions. One-off installations are not included. These multi-firing sauna stoves may burn only natural wood logs in accordance with the appliance operating instructions. Single-firing heat storage sauna stoves, in which the stones are directly heated by the fire and the flue gases, which pass through them, are not covered by this European Standard. This standard is also not applicable to mechanically fed sauna stoves, sauna stoves having fan assisted combustion air, sauna stoves fitted with a boiler, sauna stoves with incorporated flue or sauna stoves having any electrical connection.

 

ISO 2477:2005 describes a method for determining the permanent change in dimensions on heating of a shaped insulating refractory product.

 

This document describes the test and assessment procedure for determining the contribution of reactive fire protection systems to the fire resistance of solid steel bars used as tension members, when exposed to the standard temperature/time curve specified in EN 1363-1. In special circumstances, where specified in National Building Regulations, there can be a need to subject reactive fire protection systems to a slow heating curve (smouldering fire) as defined in EN 1363-2. The corresponding test and assessment procedure are described in Annex E. The fire protection performance is determined by testing mechanically loaded steel bars in horizontal orientation. Information regarding the testing of additional unloaded specimens is given to assess the influence of the bar orientation and smouldering fire behaviour. The principles of the testing and assessment procedure can also be applied for other section shapes such as angles, channels and flats. This document does not include steel bars used as reinforcement in concrete construction. The document is applicable to steel bars up to a maximum diameter of 130 mm. In the case of rectangular bars, the maximum edge length shall be limited to 130 mm with a maximum aspect ratio of 2:1 against the shorter edge length. The test programme and the assessment are designed to cover: - a range of valid fire protection classification periods; - a range of thickness of the applied reactive fire protection system; - a range of steel bar dimensions and profiles; - a range of specified design temperatures; - a range of load utilisation factors in case of fire; - a range of bar orientation. This document also provides the assessment procedure, which prescribes how the analysis of the test data shall be made and gives guidance on the procedures by which interpolation shall be undertaken. The assessment procedure is used to establish: a) on the basis of data derived from mechanically loaded testing steel bar, any practical constraints on the use of the reactive fire protection system under fire test conditions (the physical performance); b) on the basis of the temperature data derived from testing steel bar the thermal properties of the reactive fire protection system (the thermal performance). The limits of applicability of the results of the assessment arising from the fire test are defined together with permitted direct application of the results to different steel types and sizes over the range of thicknesses of the applied reactive fire protection system tested.

 

This document specifies the method to be used to determine the resistance to repeated opening and closing of windows and pedestrian doorsets when subjected to repeated opening and closing. It applies to all construction materials and operating systems for any window or pedestrian doorset, including gaskets and building hardware, in normal operating conditions. The parts concerned in the testing are the frame, the opening component (including any additional moving components e.g. an inactive sash/leaf) and all essential and directly involved building hardware, including operating devices, for example, the handle. The testing does not include any hardware whose operation is not directly involved in the opening and closing of the moving components: added-on fastening systems such as peg-stays or cabin hooks or bolts, nor, unless specified, any independently installed stops (not connected to the complete assembly) such as a wall or ground-mounted stop. NOTE 1 The annexes provide more details on the testing procedures that can differ from the main part of this document and are normative: - Annex A applies to tilt and turn, tilt-first, turn-only, or tilt-only windows and door-height windows; - Annex B applies to sliding, lift and slide or lift and slide and tilt windows and door-height windows; - Annex C applies to tilt and slide windows and door-height windows; - Annex D applies to fold and slide windows and door-height windows; - Annex E applies to horizontal and vertical pivot windows and door-height windows; - Annex F applies to vertical sliding windows; - Annex G applies to side-hung casements and top-hung windows, opening outwards (including reversible windows); - Annex H applies to side-hung single and double action pedestrian doorsets excluding power operated doors; - Annex I applies to power-operated (automatic) side-hung single action pedestrian doorsets. NOTE 2 In this document, the term door-height window is used for windows that are used for the passage of pedestrians, i.e. as a pedestrian doorset.

 

This ISO standard specifies the terminology for hardware used in windows and pedestrian doors. This document mainly refers to terminology of hardware used for the connection between window sash/casement, door leaf and their corresponding frames as well as the hardware used for operating the window sash/casement and door leaf. This document is neither for the terminology of fixing element used as a means of connecting the hardware to the door and window sash/casement profile or frame, nor the hardware used for connection between door/ window frame and their openings, such as screws, bolts, etc. This document does not set out physical definitions related to performance requirements and associated test methods of the hardware.
