BS EN 13948:2007 PDF Download

The BS EN 13948:2007 standard provides guidelines for testing the resistance of roof waterproofing sheets to root penetration. The standard specifically applies to sheets and does not include testing of waterproofing systems made up of multiple sheets. Additionally, the standard does not address the environmental requirements of the sheets being tested.

The purpose of this standard is to establish a method for determining the ability of roofing sheets to withstand root penetration. By following the guidelines outlined in the standard, manufacturers and users of waterproofing sheets can evaluate their resistance to roots, which is a common challenge in roofing applications. However, it is important to note that this standard only applies to individual sheets and does not assess the overall performance of a complete waterproofing system.
