BS EN 16002:2018 PDF Download

BS EN 16002:2018 is a standard that specifies a test method for determining the resistance to wind load of mechanically fastened flexible sheets used for roof waterproofing. The purpose of this standard is to assess the performance of the flexible sheets under wind loads. It should be noted that the assessment is focused solely on the performance of the flexible sheets, and does not include the determination of the performance of the mechanical fasteners or the combination of the mechanical fasteners with the substrate.

The test method outlined in this standard is designed to measure the resistance of the flexible sheets to wind loads. It provides guidelines for conducting the test and evaluating the results. The aim is to ensure that the flexible sheets used for roof waterproofing can withstand the forces exerted by wind, thereby providing reliable and effective protection against water penetration. This standard serves as a benchmark for manufacturers, installers, and users of flexible sheets for roof waterproofing, ensuring that the products meet the required performance standards in terms of wind load resistance.
