This document specifies a test method for determining the mechanical viscoelastic properties of interlayer materials. The interlayers under examination are those used in the production of laminated glass or laminated safety glass. The shear characteristics of interlayers are needed to design laminated glass in accordance with EN 16612:2019 and CEN/TS 19100 series.
Parameters of the Prony series, widely used in numerical simulation, can be derived from the measurements in Annex C.

European foreword
This document (prEN 16613:2024) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 129 “Glass in
building”, the secretariat of which is held by NBN.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document will supersede EN 16613:2019.
a) The test procedure focuses on a parallel-plate oscillation rather than tensile vibration.
b) A more detailed description of the test procedure is provided comprising four subsequent steps.
c) Annex A has been reviewed and is used for non-isotropic and multilayer interlayer materials as well
as step four in the main test procedure. It provides the methods to calculate the effective thickness,
shear transfer coefficient 𝜔𝜔, the coupling factor 𝜂𝜂 and the interlayer shear modulus G .

d) Annex C details the procedure to obtain the master curve and the Prony parameters.
e) The new Annex D will help determine mechanical properties used for calculation of noise reduction.
f) Annex E provides guidance for a precise geometrical assessment of a deflected specimen.
Introduction
The purpose of this document is to provide viscoelastic properties of interlayer materials for structural
design of laminated glass.
In addition, it provides a method to calculate interlayer mechanical properties at different frequencies
that can be used for calculation of sound reduction indices.
1 Scope
This document specifies a test method for determining the mechanical viscoelastic properties of
interlayer materials. The interlayers under examination are those used in the production of laminated
glass or laminated safety glass. The shear characteristics of interlayers are needed to design laminated
glass in accordance with EN 16612:2019 and CEN/TS 19100 series.
Parameters of the Prony series, widely used in numerical simulation, can be derived from the
measurements in Annex C.
