Flexible Sheets for Waterproofing - Definitions and Characteristics of Underlays - Part 1: Underlays for Discontinuous Roofing
Also Known As:
DIN EN 13859-1 is a European standard that defines the terms and characteristics of underlays for discontinuous roofing. It focuses specifically on flexible sheets that are used underneath the roof covering. The standard outlines the requirements, test methods, and performance criteria for these underlays.
The purpose of this standard is to ensure that the underlays used in discontinuous roofing systems meet certain quality standards and provide effective waterproofing. It sets out the criteria for assessing and verifying the constancy of performance, ensuring that the underlays maintain their intended characteristics over time.
By defining the terms and characteristics of underlays for discontinuous roofing, DIN EN 13859-1 provides a clear framework for manufacturers, installers, and regulatory bodies to ensure the proper selection, installation, and performance of these underlays. Compliance with this standard helps to ensure the longevity and reliability of the waterproofing system in discontinuous roofs.
