Fire resistance tests for loadbearing elements - Part 5: Balconies and walkways

This Part of EN 1365 specifies a method for determining the fire resistance, in respect with loadbearing capacity and with no separating function, of:
- balconies exposed to the fire from either outside or inside the building; and
- walkways exposed to the fire from either outside or inside the building.
This standard is used in conjunction with EN 1363-1.

Feuerwiderstandsprüfungen für tragende Bauteile - Teil 5: Balkone und Laubengänge

Dieser Teil von EN 1365 legt ein Prüfverfahren fest zur Bestimmung der Feuerwiderstandsfähigkeit, bezogen auf
die Tragfähigkeit und ohne raumabschließende Funktion, von:
. Balkonen, die durch einen Brand von außen oder innen beansprucht werden, und
. Laubengängen, die durch einen Brand von außen oder innen beansprucht werden.
Diese Norm gilt zusammen mit EN 1363-1.

Essais de résistance au feu des éléments porteurs - Partie 5: Balcons et passerelles

La présente partie de l'EN 1365 prescrit une méthode de détermination de la résistance au feu, en ce qui concerne la capacité portante et en l'absence de fonction de séparation, des structures suivantes :
- les balcons exposés au feu de l'extérieur ou de l'intérieur du bâtiment ;
- les passerelles exposées au feu de l'extérieur ou de l'intérieur du bâtiment.
La présente norme est utilisée conjointement avec l'EN 1363-1.

Part 1: Walls,
Part 2: Floors and roofs,
Part 3: Beams,
Part 4: Columns,
Part 5: Balconies and walkways,
Part 6: Stairs.
According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following
countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech Republic,

Introduction
The purpose of this test is to measure the ability of a representative specimen of a balcony or walkway or a
part of those to maintain its loadbearing capacity when exposed to fire according to EN 1363-1.
Caution
The attention of all persons concerned with managing and carrying out this fire resistance test is drawn to the
fact that fire testing can be hazardous and that there is a possibility that toxic and/or harmful smoke and gases
can be evolved during the test. Mechanical and operational hazards can also arise during the construction of
the test elements or structures, their testing and disposal of test residues.
An assessment of all potential hazards and risks to health should be made and safety precautions should be
identified and provided. Written safety instructions should be issued. Appropriate training should be given to
relevant personnel. Laboratory personnel should ensure that they follow written safety instructions at all times.
