Not applicable. 4 Performance characteristics required for wood and parquet flooring 4.1 General For construction precautions see Annex A. For moisture content, the equilibrium of wood and parquet flooring will depend on the surrounding temperature and relative humidity of the site before installation and on the service conditions. Dimensional characteristics of products shall be respected in accordance with those defined in the product standard to which the product belongs. Furthermore the type of laying may limit the use of the product. Consequently, indications of use linked to the type of laying (nailed, glued, floating) has to be indicated and it is linked to the type of use. NOTE The following characteristics, mentioned in the mandate issued to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, under the EU Construction Products Directive (see Annex ZA), listed hereafter are not relevant to wood flooring: emission of radioactivity, release of asbestos, water tightness or tactility/visibility. 4.2 List of performance characteristics required for wood and parquet flooring The following performance characteristics shall, where the manufacturer wishes to claim performance (e.g. where the product is subject to regulatory requirements), be determined: – reaction to fire: see 5.1; – release of formaldehyde: see 5.2; SIST EN 14342:2005
