Flexible Sheets for Waterproofing - Bitumen, Plastic and Rubber Sheets for Roof Waterproofing - Method for Artificial Ageing by Long Term Exposure to Elevated Temperature
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 1296 standard focuses on the method of artificial ageing of flexible sheets used for waterproofing, particularly for roofing applications. The standard provides guidance on subjecting these sheets to long-term exposure to elevated temperatures in order to simulate the effects of weathering over time.
The document outlines the principles, apparatus, and procedure necessary for carrying out this artificial ageing process. It specifies the use of thermal conditioning and testing equipment to subject the sheets to the required temperatures and durations.
While the main application for this standard is in roof waterproofing, it also states that it can be used for testing other types of waterproofing sheets as well. This indicates the broad scope and versatility of the standard in ensuring the durability and performance of flexible sheets used for waterproofing purposes.
