Metal Framing Components for Gypsum Board Systems - Definitions, Requirements and Test Methods
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 14195 standard provides definitions, requirements, and test methods for metal framing components designed to be used with gypsum board systems in building construction. These components include profiles, hangers, and connectors that are used in non-loadbearing assemblies such as partitions, wall and ceiling linings, suspended ceilings, and cladding of beams, columns, ducts, and shafts.
The standard specifies the performance characteristics that these metal framing components must meet, including their reaction to fire, flexural (yield) strength, and loadbearing capacity. The relevant test methods for measuring these characteristics are also outlined in the standard or referenced from other European standards such as EN 520, EN 15283-1, EN 15283-2, and EN 14190.
By conforming to the DIN EN 14195 standard, manufacturers and contractors can ensure that the metal framing components used in conjunction with gypsum boards meet the necessary criteria for safety, durability, and performance in building construction projects.
