panel intended for use in interior applications with no risk of wetting as defined in service class 1 of
EN 1995-1-1:2004 and use class 1 of EN 335Note 1 to entry: Service class 1 is characterised by a moisture content of the material corresponding to a
temperature of 20 °C and a relative humidity of the surrounding air exceeding 65 % for only a few weeks per year.
3.1.2solid wood panel for use in humid conditions
panel intended for use in protected external applications as defined in service class 2 of
EN 1995-1-1:2004 and use class 2 of EN 335Note 1 to entry: It is also capable of resisting weather exposure for short periods (e.g. when exposed during
construction).Note 2 to entry: Service class 2 is characterised by a moisture content of the material corresponding to a

3.2.3 Classes for structural use based on individually declared values
SWP/1 SD: Solid wood panel for structural use in dry conditions according to 3.1.1
SWP/2 SD: Solid wood panel for structural use in humid conditions according to 3.1.2
SWP/3 SD: Solid wood panel for structural use in exterior conditions according to 3.1.3
Technical classes are intended to simplify the use of standardized solid wood panels by providing
supporting data e.g. in EN 12369-3 as well as simplifying marking in accordance with EN 13986.
Nevertheless, products should not be limited by the requirements according to the technical classes.
Therefore, classes based on individually declared values may be used for such products. The calculation
of characteristic values should be performed according to EN 1058 or EN 14358.4 Requirements
4.1 Dimensional tolerances
The tolerances for the nominal length, width and thickness, thickness within the panel, edge
straightness and squareness are given in Table 1. They relate to the moisture content at time of
despatch for large and medium-sized panels according to EN 12775 and shall be determined in
accordance with EN 324-1 and EN 324-2 as appropriate.Table 1 — Dimensional tolerances for both large and medium-sized panels

4.2 Moisture content at dispatch
At time of dispatch the moisture content according to EN 322 shall be (8 ± 2) % for use in dry
conditions, (10 ± 3) % for use in humid conditions and (12 ± 3) % for use in exterior conditions.
If chemically or thermally treated wood is used, the equilibrium moisture content of the panels can
differ significantly to those made of natural wood. In that case, a deviation from the above mentioned
requirements concerning moisture content is possible.If another moisture content is necessary, e.g. due to regional climatic condition, the appropriate
moisture content has to be specified explicitly.4.3 Bonding quality
