Flexible Sheets for Waterproofing - Bitumen Damp Proof Courses - Definitions and Characteristics
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 14967 standard focuses on the specifications for flexible sheets of bitumen used as damp proof courses in buildings. The standard outlines the requirements and test methods for these sheets, allowing for the evaluation of product conformity. It should be noted that this standard does not cover other related products such as preformed cavity trays and flashings.
The standard primarily addresses the characteristics of bitumen damp proof courses, including water tightness, gas permeability, and various mechanical properties such as resistance to perforation and impact. It also considers the durability of these characteristics against chemical or biological agents, as well as the effects of weathering. By establishing these specifications and test methods, the DIN EN 14967 standard aims to ensure the quality and performance of flexible bitumen sheets used for damp proofing in construction.
