Annex D. 4.2 General requirements The nominal dimensions shall be declared by the manufacturer at a given humidity. For appearance for evaluation of conformity, to be used when requested about product quality, the procedure in Annex F may be used. The wood veneers used for the top layer are hardwood or softwood species and shall be free from decay and insect attack. Variations of colour can occur under the influence of light.

Classification shall conform to the scheme specified in EN 685 (levels 21, 22, 23, 31, 32, 33). The use classification defined in the Table 3 had been fixed on the basis of the material (wood veneer) and the linked test methods. 5.2 Classification requirements for elements with lacquer finishing The classification requirements for elements with lacquer finishing are given in Table 3 Table 3 — Classification requirements for elements with finishing ex- factory Class 21 22 23 31 32 33 Symbol

Test methods for the determination of thickness, length, width, squareness, deviation from edge straightness and cup A.1 Scope This Annex specifies methods for measuring the thickness, length, width, squareness, deviation from edge straightness and cup of wood veneer floor covering elements. A.2 Sampling Take 5 elements at random. A.3 Conditioning Elements are measured without conditioning. If requested, the test pieces shall be stabilized to a constant mass in an atmosphere of (23 ± 2)°C and (50 ± 5) % relative humidity. Constant mass is considered to be reached when the results of two successive weighing operations, carried out at an interval of 24h, do not differ by more than 0,1 % of the mass of the test pieces. A.4 Test equipment A.4.1 Micrometer, sliding caliper or any other equivalent tool giving an accuracy of 0,05 mm. A.4.2 Sliding caliper or any other equivalent tool giving an accuracy of 0,01 mm. A.4.3 Square arms with lengths of 300 mm and having a maximum angular distortion of 0,02 mm at 300 mm. A.4.4 Steel ruler of length at least equal to the length of test specimen and having a maximum straightness deviation of 0,05 mm over 1 000 mm. A.4.5 Apparatus (T–assembly) for measuring width flatness consisting of a dial gauge accurate to ± 0,01 mm with a rounded tip with a radius of ≤ 5,5 mm, installed centrally in relation to three rounded supports with a radius of ≥ 5 mm. The supports shall be adjustable along a T-shaped assembly of bars to provide the required gauge length. The measurement d shall not be less than the width w of the test specimen minus 10 mm. The tip of the gauge in contact with the face of the test specimen shall apply a force of (1,0 ± 0,5) N. The mass of the apparatus shall not affect the flatness of the test specimen beyond the limit of the accuracy of the gauge.
See Figure A.1 for illustration. The instrument shall be set to zero against a suitable reference plate. SIST EN 14354:2005
