Design and application of gypsum blocks

This European Standard defines the rules for the design of gypsum blocks as specified in EN 12859, assembled with adhesives as specified in EN 12860. Accessory products are also defined in this document.  It is applicable to non-loadbearing partition walls and internal insulation of walls in rooms of residential buildings, offices, hospitals, schools etc. and to linings of posts, beams, ducts, shafts etc, that are suitable to receive finishes such as paint and wallpaper without any prior traditional plastering, but having had normal preparation prior to painting.
Certain components requiring special provisions are not covered by this standard and require special consideration.

Planung und Ausführung von Bauteilen aus Gips-Wandbauplatten

Diese Europäische Norm legt Planungs- und Ausführungsregeln für Bauteile fest, die aus Gips-Wandbauplatten nach EN 12859, verbunden mit einem Gipskleber nach EN 12860, hergestellt werden. Die Zubehörteile sind in diesem Dokument ebenfalls beschrieben. Sie gilt für nichttragende Trennwände und Vorsatzschalen in Räumen von Wohngebäuden, Bürogebäuden, Krankenhäusern, Schulen usw. sowie für Ummantelungen von Stützen, Trägern, Abmauerung von Schächten, Leitungen usw. deren Oberflächen ohne vorherigen Putzauftrag, bei Durchführung der üblichen Vorbehandlung für Malerarbeiten, als Untergrund für die direkte Aufnahme von Anstrich oder Tapeten geeignet sind.
Bestimmte Bauteile, für die besondere Vorkehrungen notwendig sind, werden in dieser Norm nicht behandelt  und sind zum Gegenstand besonderer Untersuchungen zu machen.

Conception et exécution des ouvrages en carreaux de plâtre

La présente norme européenne définit les règles de conception des ouvrages réalisés en carreaux de plâtre définis dans l’EN 12859, assemblés au moyen d'un liant-colle définis dans l’EN 12860. Les produits accessoires sont également définis dans le présent document. Cette norme s'applique aux ouvrages de cloison non porteurs et à l’isolation intérieure des murs des pièces à usage d'habitation, des bureaux, des hôpitaux, des écoles, etc. ainsi qu'aux habillages de poteaux, de poutres, de gaines, de conduits, etc., susceptibles de recevoir les finitions telles que peinture ou papier peint sans exécution préalable d'un enduit traditionnel au plâtre, sous réserve des préparations habituelles avant mise en peinture.
Certains ouvrages qui nécessitent des dispositions particulières ne sont pas traités dans la présente norme et doivent faire l'objet d'une étude spécifique.

4 Design 4.1 General By following the recommendations in this document, the designer can specify partitions suitable for the use for which they are intended. 4.2 Materials  gypsum blocks according to EN 12859;  gypsum-based adhesives for gypsum blocks according to EN 12860;  other materials and accessories can be used.
4.3 Structure and Functions 4.3.1 General The following factors can influence the choice of the type of gypsum blocks and shall be taken into account with the structural requirements: a) type of building (single-family houses, buildings, etc.), purpose (accommodation, schools, offices, hospitals,
etc.) and use (for example: damp rooms);

The duct walls can be single or composite according to the performance required. 4.3.5
Lining of posts For aesthetic or technical reasons (fire resistance), all types of post (wood, metal, concrete …) can be protected by gypsum block structures.
4.4 Specific structural requirements 4.4.1 General Depending on the type of building or purposes of the rooms, special precautions shall be taken into account. 4.4.2 Damp rooms In rooms exposed intermittently to water, either by use or by the need to wash the surface of the partition or the adjacent floor, water-repellent gypsum blocks shall be used.

…), it is recommended to use high-density blocks in the area’s involved. 4.4.4 Safety in the event of fire Where the structure is considered to meet fire resistance requirements, it shall have been the subject of a test and a classification according to EN 13501-2.
The blocks can also be selected as a function of the fire resistance values in use specified in 4.5.2.2, Table 1.
4.4.5 Protection against noise Where the structure is considered to meet sound insulation requirements, the blocks are selected as a function of the information in 4.5.5. 4.4.6 Overhanging partitions Special provisions shall be made to improve the safety conditions in use. 4.5 Requirements 4.5.1 Mechanical strength and stability Gypsum block partitions are self-supporting non-loadbearing structures that do not affect the ge
