ISO 20152-1:2010 PDF Download

ISO 20152-1:2010 is a standard that outlines the fundamental requirements for adhesives used to bond timber structures. The standard takes into account the specific service conditions that the adhesive will be subjected to, which are categorized into Service Classes 1, 2, and 3. These classes define different levels of exposure and durability requirements for the adhesive.

The standard establishes criteria for evaluating the bond performance of the adhesive, including factors such as shear strength, moisture resistance, and durability. It aims to ensure that the adhesive used in timber structures meets the necessary standards for structural integrity and long-term performance.

By providing these basic requirements, ISO 20152-1:2010 helps to ensure the reliability and safety of timber structures, as well as facilitate consistency in the selection and use of adhesives in the industry. Adhering to this standard can help manufacturers, builders, and engineers in making informed decisions about the suitability of adhesives for specific applications and service conditions in timber structures.
