Flexible Sheets for Waterproofing - Bitumen Sheets for Roof Waterproofing - Determination of Form Stability Under Cyclical Temperature Changes
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 1108 standard focuses on the evaluation of form stability of bitumen sheets used for roof waterproofing under cyclical temperature changes. The purpose of the standard is to ensure that these flexible sheets maintain their intended shape and integrity even when exposed to varying temperature conditions.
The standard is specifically applicable to bitumen sheets that are either metal faced or metal cored, and that are fully bonded to a substrate. It is important to note that the standard does not include testing for vapour control layers, as it is designed specifically for roof waterproofing materials.
By performing the test outlined in this standard, manufacturers and users of bitumen sheets can assess the ability of these materials to withstand cyclical temperature changes without deformation or loss of structural integrity. This ensures that the sheets will effectively provide long-lasting waterproofing protection for roofs, enhancing the overall performance and durability of the building structure.
