Extended application of results from fire resistance tests - Non-loadbearing walls - Part 6: Curtain walling
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 15254-6 standard provides guidance and procedures for variations in the design of curtain walls. This standard specifically applies to curtain walls that have been tested and classified according to EN 1364-3 and EN 13501-2 (curtain wall type B). It also includes components of curtain walls, such as spandrel panels, that have been tested in accordance with EN 1364-4 and classified according to EN 13501-2.
The standard aims to ensure the proper implementation of fire resistance measures in curtain walling systems. It defines procedures for variations in parameters and factors associated with design, enabling the extended application of test results. By providing this guidance, the DIN EN 15254-6 standard helps ensure that non-loadbearing curtain walls meet the required fire resistance standards and contribute to the overall fire safety of a building.
