Standard EN EN DEFlexible Sheets for Waterproofing - Bitumen, Plastic and Rubber Sheets for Roof Waterproofing - Determination of Watertightness after Stretching at Low Temperature
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 13897 standard focuses on the determination of watertightness after stretching at low temperature for flexible sheets used in roof waterproofing. The purpose of this test is to evaluate the ability of these sheets to maintain their waterproofing properties when subjected to stretching and low temperatures. The standard specifically applies to mechanically fastened single-layer waterproofing systems.
This standard provides a method for testing the performance of flexible sheets in maintaining their watertightness under specific conditions. The test involves subjecting the sheets to stretching at a low temperature, simulating the potential stresses and strains they may experience in real-world applications. The result of the test allows users to assess the suitability of the sheets for use in roofing and other relevant areas.
