Standard EN Sample
Methods of Test for Asbestos-Cement Building Products
Also Known As:
The BS 4624:1981 standard provides guidelines and procedures for testing various asbestos-cement building products. The standard specifically focuses on testing flat sheets, corrugated sheets, flue pipes, and rainwater pipes made of asbestos-cement.
The standard is based on ISO standards and outlines the specific methods that should be followed when conducting these tests. It includes procedures for assessing the physical and mechanical properties of the asbestos-cement products, such as dimensions, strength, and durability. It also covers tests for determining the resistance to water penetration, as well as the behavior under different environmental conditions.
The purpose of this standard is to ensure that asbestos-cement building products meet the necessary quality and safety requirements. By providing standardized testing methods, the BS 4624:1981 standard enables manufacturers, suppliers, and regulators to assess the performance and reliability of these products.
