Overview
EN 15882-1:2011+A1:2017 - Extended application of results from fire resistance tests for service installations - Part 1: Ducts (CEN) provides a structured method to extend fire resistance test results from tested ventilation ducts to untested variations of the same duct construction. The standard identifies the parameters that influence fire resistance of ducts for ventilation purposes and gives guidance on when additional tests are required to support an extended field of application.
Key topics and requirements
- Scope limitation: Applies only to ducts tested to EN 1366‑1 (fire resistance tests for service installations - ducts). It does not cover smoke-control ducts (EN 1366‑8 / EN 1366‑9) or duct sections used outside HVAC fire‑resisting systems.
- Performance criteria: Focuses on the relevant criteria E (integrity), I (insulation) and S (smoke leakage) as used for duct classification in EN 13501‑3.
- Critical parameters: Lists and analyses factors affecting fire resistance, such as:
- Orientation (vertical/horizontal), shape and cross‑section changes (rectangular/circular)
- Wall/floor thickness and type, protective material type and thickness
- Pressure variations (positive/negative differential - e.g. >300 Pa / 500 Pa thresholds referenced)
- Supports, hangers, anchors, spacing between supports, length between flanges/spigots
- Joints, access panels, compensators, integrated components (fans, silencers), and combustible materials inside ducts
- Methodology: Requires systematic evaluation of each parameter (often in tabular form) to determine whether a proposed variation will maintain, reduce or require additional testing to confirm the original classification.
- Additional testing & assessment: Where parameter changes could adversely affect E/I/S performance, the standard gives principles for required additional tests, maximum dimensions eligible for classification extension, and how to document an extended application report.
Practical applications and users
This standard is used by:
- Manufacturers of fire‑resisting ventilation ducts and fire‑protected steel ducts to justify variations without full retesting.
- Fire testing laboratories and certification bodies preparing extended application assessments or classification reports.
- Fire safety engineers, HVAC designers and consultants specifying ducts for fire compartmentation and performance-based designs.
- Regulatory authorities and specifiers who evaluate equivalence of untested duct variants against tested reference products.
Practical benefits include reduced need for full-scale retesting, clear justification for acceptable construction variations, and a transparent route to maintain product classifications for fire‑resisting ducts.

Die Prinzipien, die der Norm zugrunde liegen, bieten eine verständliche Methodik zur Beurteilung des Einflusses bestimmter Parameter und Konstruktionsdetails im Einklang mit den relevanten Kriterien (E, I, S). Darüber hinaus wird betont, dass diese Norm ausschließlich für Kanäle gilt, die gemäß EN 1366-1 geprüft wurden. Dies unterstreicht die gezielte Anwendung der Norm auf Lüftungsleitungen im Rahmen von feuerbeständigen Heizungs-, Lüftungs- und Klimaanlagen (HVAC). Es ist erwähnenswert, dass Kanäle, die für die Rauchkontrolle verwendet werden, nicht von dieser Norm abgedeckt sind, da sie separate Prüfvorgaben gemäß EN 1366-8 oder EN 1366-9 erfordern. Insgesamt zeigt die EN 15882-1:2011+A1:2017 eine hohe Relevanz für die Sicherheit in der gebauten Umwelt. Sie bietet nicht nur notwendige Kriterien und Tests, um die Feuerbeständigkeit von Lüftungsleitungen zu bewerten, sondern auch eine methodische Grundlage für die zukünftige Anwendung und Forschung in diesem wichtigen Bereich. Die Norm stellt somit ein wichtiges Werkzeug dar, um die Sicherheit und Effizienz von Lüftungsinstallationen zu gewährleisten.
La norme EN 15882-1:2011+A1:2017 se présente comme une référence incontournable dans le domaine de l'application étendue des résultats des tests de résistance au feu pour les installations de service, notamment en ce qui concerne les conduits de ventilation. Son champ d'application est clairement défini, se concentrant sur les paramètres critiques qui influencent la résistance au feu des conduits, tout en prenant en compte les variations non testées dans la construction. Parmi les points forts de cette norme, on note sa capacité à identifier les facteurs déterminants lors de l’évaluation de l’extension positive ou négative d'un paramètre. Cela permet aux ingénieurs et concepteurs d’adapter leurs projets en fonction des différentes configurations de construction tout en garantissant la sécurité incendie. De plus, la directive sur les tests supplémentaires nécessaires pour étendre le champ d'application est un atout appréciable, car elle guide les utilisateurs vers des pratiques éprouvées et conformes aux exigences réglementaires. La norme met également en avant les principes méthodologiques permettant d’arriver à une conclusion concernant l'influence des paramètres spécifiques et des détails constructifs, notamment en ce qui concerne les critères de résistance (E pour l'étanchéité, I pour l'isolation et S pour la stabilité). Ce cadre rigoureux assure que les performances des conduits puissent être évaluées de manière fiable tout en offrant une flexibilité dans les choix de conception. Il est important de signaler que la norme se limite explicitement aux conduits testés selon la norme EN 1366-1, ce qui garantit la cohérence et la pertinence des données fournies. Les conduits utilisés en dehors des systèmes de chauffage, ventilation et climatisation résistants au feu ne sont pas inclus, et la norme n'aborde pas les conduits destinés à la gestion de la fumée conformément aux normes EN 1366-8 ou EN 1366-9. Cela renforce l'accent mis sur la sécurité et la spécialisation des applications couvertes par cette norme. En somme, la norme EN 15882-1:2011+A1:2017 est particulièrement pertinente pour les professionnels du secteur, car elle établit des fondations solides pour garantir la sécurité incendie des installations de ventilation tout en permettant une certaine latitude dans la construction.
