ISO 880:1981 PDF Download

ISO 880:1981 is a standard that provides a detailed description and requirements for asbestos-cement siding shingles. The standard defines the characteristics and specifications of these shingles and also sets out the procedures for testing, marking, sampling, and acceptance of the products.

Specifically, the standard focuses on siding shingles that are used for external cladding purposes. These shingles are flat elements that are designed to be arranged in a way that they overlap or are juxtaposed to cover a surface. The standard classifies the shingles into two categories based on their bending strength.

By adhering to ISO 880:1981, manufacturers can ensure that their asbestos-cement siding shingles meet the necessary quality and performance standards. Compliance with this standard ensures that these shingles are tested adequately, marked correctly, sampled appropriately, and accepted based on the established criteria. Ultimately, the standard aims to provide a framework for consistent and reliable asbestos-cement siding shingles in the industry.
