Flexible Sheets for Waterproofing: Plastic and Rubber Vapour Control Layers - Definitions and Characteristics
Also Known As:
BS EN 13984:2013 is a standard that defines the characteristics of flexible sheets used for waterproofing in buildings. It specifically focuses on plastic and rubber vapor control layers. The standard applies to both reinforced and unreinforced products, providing requirements and test methods to ensure their performance.
The standard aims to evaluate the conformity of these products with the requirements set forth in the standard. By specifying the characteristics and performance criteria, it ensures that these sheets effectively control water vapor, preventing its passage and potential damage to the building structure.
The standard also serves as a guideline for manufacturers, helping them produce sheets that meet the necessary criteria for reliable waterproofing in buildings. Compliance with this standard enhances the quality and durability of these flexible sheets, contributing to the overall performance and longevity of the building envelope.
