This European Standard is applicable to residential freestanding hand fuelled intermittent burning slow heat release appliances having thermal storage capacity such that they can provide heat for an extended period of time after the fire has gone out. Maximum firing time is 3 hours. These slow heat release appliances may be supplied either as an assembled appliance or as a manufacturer’s predesigned unit consisting of prefabricated components designed to be built on site in accordance with the manufacturer’s specified assembly instructions. One off installations are not included as they are not covered by the scope of this standard. This European standard is also applicable to appliances which are designed for operating under room sealed conditions and which are intended to be installed into a chimney not serving any other appliances. These appliances can contain also fluid heating device which can be either a boiler or a heat exchanger that is not in contact with flames or flue gases. Note: Appliances which receive their combustion air from outside by means of a pipe system which is not air tight are not considered room sealed in accordance with this standard. This European Standard specifies requirements relating to the design, manufacture, construction, safety and performance (efficiency and emission) together with associated test methods and test fuels for residential slow heat release appliances fired by solid fuel (hereafter referred to as “appliances”), 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 appliances. These appliances provide heat by radiation and convection from the surface and can also have channels for improved convection. They provide heat into the space where they are installed. Additionally if fitted with a boiler or a heat exchanger that is not in contact with flames or flue gases, these appliances may also provide domestic hot water and/or central heating. These appliances may burn either solid mineral fuels, peat briquettes, natural or manufactured wood logs or be multifuel fired in accordance with the appliance manufacturer’s instructions. Wood pellets which are specifically intended to be hand fuelled can be burned either on the existing appliance bottom grate or in a special basket arrangement which is placed by the user into the existing firebox. This European Standard is not applicable to mechanically fed appliances. This European standard is also not applicable to appliances which are designed to be operated with ventilating systems which have pressure below (– 15 Pa) in relation to the outside atmosphere as measured in the room where the appliance is installed. This European Standard covers also CO, NOx, OGC (total hydrocarbons) and particulate matter emission test methods; however it does not contain any values for the limit on these emissions. This part 25 of a European Standard series is applicable to slow heat release appliances. This part 25 is to be used in conjunction with the latest edition of EN 165101 and its amendments. It is established on the basis of EN 165101: 2015. When this standard states “addition”, “modification” or “replacement”, the relevant text in part 1 is to be adapted accordingly.

The design method provided in this standard addresses vibrations induced by walking action of occupants and covers the following timber floor systems: The standard consists of three elements: 1) a baseline vibrational serviceability design criterion for timber floors using fundamental natural frequency and 1 kN static point load deflection as the design parameters; 2) equations for calculating the design parameters; and 3) a guideline for the design values of the physical and mechanical properties of floor components. The design method is based on the assumption that the floor system has a single span and simple support conditions. The standard allows individual jurisdictions to develop their own performance requirement levels following the guidelines and procedure described in ISO/TR 21136, and for adoption of other models to calculate the fundamental natural frequency and 1 kN static deflection.

1.1 General This document applies to Mechatronic door furniture (MDF) fitted on the door set which gives the possibility to control the locking and/or release part through an electronic authorization means. This can be operable by credentials (i.e. card, code, biometric). The MDF according to this document is combined with locks according to EN 12209, EN 14846, prEN 15685 or may be a part of an emergency exit device according to EN 179, EN 1125 or EN 13637. The MDF may be standalone or linkable to an external control system. The document would allow classifying the MDF upon several characteristics such as category of use, durability, environmental, security, and type of operating device. The suitability of the MDF for use on fire or smoke-door assemblies is determined by fire resistance tests conducted in addition to the performance testing specified by this document. 1.2 Exclusions This document does not cover: - mechatronic cylinders according to EN 15684; - electromechanical operated locks and striking plates according to EN 14846.

 

This document specifies a procedure for determination of accelerated formaldehyde release from uncoated and coated wood-based panels using the gas analysis method.

This document specifies a test method for determining the fire resistance of smoke extraction ducts. It is applicable only to smoke extraction ducts that pass through another fire compartment from the fire compartment to be extracted in case of fire. It represents fire exposure of a fully developed fire. This method of test is only applicable to fire resistant ventilation ducts (same construction) with the following classification according to EN 13501-3: - fire from inside and outside i ? o; - applicable to a pressure difference up to 500 Pa; NOTE 1 It is assumed that the duct A test(s) in accordance with EN 1366-1 has been performed with an under-pressure of minimum 500 Pa. - with integrity (E) and insulation (I) criteria equal to or higher than the intended classification for the smoke extraction duct. For the purposes of the test described in this document, the duct is referred to as duct C. This test method has been designed to cover both vertical and horizontal smoke extraction ducts. A vertical system need not be evaluated to this method provided that: - both horizontal (ho) and vertical (ve) classification according to EN 13501-3 has been obtained for the ventilation duct, and - it has been tested in a horizontal orientation to this method. If the ventilation duct in practice is only used for vertical applications in smoke extraction systems, only vertical (ve) classification is bound to be used and tested in a vertical orientation to this method according to EN 13501-3. This test method is suitable for ducts constructed from non-combustible materials (Euroclass A1 and A2 according to EN 13501-1). NOTE 2 Reaction with components of the duct can reduce the oxygen concentration and lead to misinterpretation of the calculated leakage rate. This standard applies to four sided ducts only (with fire exposure on all four sides). Ducts that utilize elements of construction for one, two or three sides are not covered. An alternative test method for one, two and three sided ducts will be developed separately.

 

This part of EN 1366 specifies a test method for determining the fire resistance of smoke extraction ducts that are used for single compartment applications only. In such applications, the smoke extraction system is only intended to function up to flashover (typically 600 °C). This method of test is only suitable for ducts constructed from non-combustible materials (euro class A1 and A2-s1, d0). It is applicable only to four sided and circular ducts. One-, two- and three-sided ducts are not covered. This standard is applicable only for the standard sizes or smaller as described. This test method of part 9 is applicable only to smoke extraction ducts that do not pass into other fire compartments. For smoke extraction ducts that pass into other compartments, the method of test described in EN 1366-8 is used. The smoke extraction duct is part of the smoke extraction system which also includes smoke control dampers and smoke extract fans.

 

This document, EN 17632-2, provides semantic modelling patterns for (at least) the following asset aspects: • Support for distinction between spatial regions and real (“tangible”) objects; the latter being discrete or continuous (“bulk matter”); • Support for the materialization of physical objects, adding generic chemistry aspects directly relevant for the built environment dealing with concrete, steel and asphalt; • Support for the interaction between objects including connections, interfaces and ports (parts of objects where such interaction can take place). Interaction being defined as activities where material, information, energy/forces are transferred; • Support for the definition of requirements, unstructured and structured, coming from client needs, laws and regulations or sector recommendations; • Support for implicit groups having no explicit members (to model situations like “all main girders of some steel bridge”); • Support for the explicit modelling of measurements reusing the existing W3C Semantic Sensor Network (SSN)/Sensor, Observation, Sample, and Actuator (SOSA) ontology, incl. extended QUDT support. • Support for geospatial geometry (GeoSPARQL/wgs84) These patterns are currently inspired by NEN 2660-2 (that is itself finalized and tested in practice in parallel). These modelling patterns can all be positioned in the global modelling framework already provided in the form of the top level taxonomy by Part 1. Some of the information needs might be resolved by extending existing language level constructs. Finally there is a lot of ‘pattern potential’ under ‘Discrete Object’ and ‘Spatial Region’ in the built environment (road network, tunnel, bridge, road, building, installations). Care will be taken not to cross existing standards boundaries (like for open BIM and GIS).

 

This document specifies the characteristics of solid parquet elements with grooves and/or tongues for internal use as flooring. This document is not applicable to panels made from elements for which a separate standard is in course of preparation. This document covers elements with or without surface treatment.

 

This document specifies two complementary test methods to assess the chemical reactivity of a pozzolanic or latent hydraulic cement constituent by measurements of heat of hydration (see Clause 5 and 8.3 Method A, Heat of Hydration) or bound water content (see Clause 5 and 8.4 Method B, Bound Water Content) of hydrated pastes composed of the cement constituent, calcium hydroxide, calcium carbonate, potassium sulfate, and potassium hydroxide cured at 40 °C for 72 h and 168 h (3 days and 7 days). These two test methods do not distinguish between latent hydraulic and pozzolanic reactivity. Therefore, these methods are used for measuring the chemical reactivity of following cement constituents as specified under EN 197 1 and EN 197 5: S, D, P, Q, V, W and T. These test methods are used in complement with the current specifications on cement constituent reactivity given by EN 197 1 and EN 197 5, i.e. the reactive silicon dioxide content measured according to EN 196 2 for cement constituents P, Q and V; the compressive strength of specified test mortars determined according to EN 196-1 for cement constituents W and T, and the pozzolanicity of pozzolanic cements according to EN 196 5 for CEM IV type cements according to EN 197-1. The test methods are used for qualification purposes if the cement constituents are tested at the fineness of the intended use. NOTE In case the test methods are used for purposes of comparison of intrinsic reactivity, cement constituents are tested at similar fineness, where possible. The test methods are also used for testing other new constituents that are latent hydraulic or pozzolanic and that are not covered by EN 197-1 and EN 197-5. However, for such new constituents the validity of the underlying correlations with strength development have not been verified; in consequence the test results can only be used for informative and indicative purposes. Furthermore, these test methods are used in manufacturing control of cement constituents for assessing their latent hydraulic or pozzolanic reactivity.

 

This document is applicable to space heaters, inset appliances and cookers intended for mechanical fuelling with wood pellets and for manual fuelling with other solid fuel. They can be freestanding or inset appliances. The intended use of the appliances is space heating in residential buildings and can be cooking. They can be fitted with a boiler (integral part of the appliance containing water to be heated up) for the supply of hot water for central heating systems. These appliances typically use auxiliary energy which is measured in this standard as well. They are operated with natural draught and can be fan-assisted. NOTE 1 A fan-assisted appliance does still operate under negative pressure in the flue gas system. For inset appliances and especially their testing additional information can be necessary from EN 16510-2-2. These appliances burn wood pellets and wood logs only, in accordance with the appliance instructions. They only operate with the firedoors closed. NOTE 2 These appliances can have an integral fuel hopper or be combined with an external fuel hopper. These appliances can be fitted with a single or double combustion chamber having a single flue gas outlet. This document specifies procedures for assessment and verification of constancy of performance (AVCP) of characteristics of combination appliances fired by wood logs and pellets. This document is not applicable to appliances - with boiler intended for water systems having water temperatures above 110°C and 3 bar and for sanitary hot water, - intended to be used with a pure horizontal exhaust (through the building wall), - with flue gas condensation in the appliance, - switching on / off for part load operation, - with simultaneous wood and pellet operation with a single flue gas outlet, - with non-automatic pellet loading, - with single combustion chamber and double flue gas outlet.

 

This document specifies the procedure for obtaining the non-steady-state chloride migration coefficient of specimens of hardened concrete at a specified age (see Annex A). The test procedure does not take into account any interaction of concrete with the saline solution over time. The test result is a durability indicator with respect to the resistance of the concrete investigated against chloride penetration. The test procedure does not apply to concrete specimens with surface treatments such as silanes. If the aggregate or any other embedded elements (such as metallic fibres or conducting particles) are electrically conductive, this will influence the magnitude of chloride migration. This fact is taken into account when establishing threshold values. It prevents comparison of chloride migration values between concretes if the aggregates induce a difference of half an order of magnitude (higher or lower) of chloride migration.

 

This International Standard specifies a procedure for a chamber test with different options of chamber sizes to measure the formaldehyde concentrations in air from wood products under defined test conditions of temperature, relative humidity, loading and air exchange rate. Results obtained from this small-scale chamber test method can be used for quality control (factory production control – ‘FPC’) based on correlation established by reference chamber test methods according to ISO, EN or ASTM standards.
