3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in EN 13707 and EN 13956 and the
following apply.
3.1
fastener
object to fasten the fixing element to a structural deck
Note 1 to entry: Fastener can be e.g. a screw, nail, expanding anchor or rivet.
3.2
fastening system
assembly of the fastener and the fixing element intended to secure the waterproofing system to the
structural deck
Note 1 to entry: Fastening system can be e.g. a fastener with a:
- metal washer with or without a plastic sleeve,
- plastic washer with or without an integrated sleeve, or
- metal bar/continuous strips with or without a plastic sleeve.
As impacted by EN 1990:2002/A1:2005 and EN 1990:2002/A1:2005/AC:2010.
Note 2 to entry: Whilst primarily intended to secure the waterproofing system against wind uplift forces, the
system may contribute to securing intermediate layers such as thermal insulation, air and vapour control layers
(AVCL), etc.
3.3
fixing element
component that secures the waterproofing system, in connection with the fastener, to the structural deck
Note 1 to entry: A fixing element is the fastening system without the fastener.
3.4
flexible sheet for waterproofing
factory made waterproofing sheet, which can be rolled up or folded for easy transport to the site
[Source: EN 13956:2012, 3.4, modified —"Roof" omitted in the term.]
3.5
pull-through failure
failure mode between the fixing element and the waterproofing system
Note 1 to entry: The failure mode can vary dependent of type of fixing element, type of flexible sheet for
waterproofing as well as the design of the waterproofing system.
3.6
pull-out failure
failure mode in which the fastener pulls out of the structural deck
3.7
pull-over failure
failure mode in which the fastener pulls through the fixing element
Note 1 to entry: This is called "washer pull-through test" in EAD −030351-00-0402-2019.
3.8
roof build-up
total of different layers which forms the roof from the structural deck to the waterproofing system
including the fastening system
3.9
structural deck
construction element, e.g. roofing panel or slab, which has to transfer both permanent and variable loads
to the other construction parts of the roof or building
3.10
waterproofing system
assembly of one or more layers of flexible sheets for waterproofing in its applied and jointed form, which
has certain performance characteristics, to be assessed as a whole
