Fire resistance tests for non-loadbearing elements - Part 4: Curtain walling - Part configuration

This European Standard specifies a method for determining the fire resistance of parts of curtain walling and of the perimeter seal. It examines the fire resistance to internal and external fire exposure of:
-   the spandrel panel, i.e. downstand, upstand or a combination thereof, or
-   the perimeter seal, or
-   the fixing of the framing system (anchoring) used to attach the curtain walling to the floor element, or
-   combinations thereof.
Results from tests according to this standard form the basis for classification of curtain walling type A (see 3.3 for definition).
For curtain walling type B (see 3.4 for definition) results may be used to determine fire resistance of parts of a curtain walling to increase the field of application when previously tested to EN 1364 3. For intended classification EW and for corner/faceted specimens EN 1364 3 should be used.
This European Standard does not cover double skin façades, over-cladding systems and ventilated façade systems on external walls. It does not deal with the reaction to fire behaviour of curtain walling.
This standard is intended to be read in conjunction with EN 1363 1 and EN 1363 2 as well as EN 1364 3 for curtain walling type B.
NOTE   Annex A gives informative guidance on the principles of testing parts of curtain walling and the test method.

Feuerwiderstandsprüfungen für nichttragende Bauteile - Teil 4: Vorhangfassaden - Teilausführung

Diese Europäische Norm legt ein Verfahren zur Bestimmung der Feuerwiderstandsdauer von Teilen der Vorhangfassade und der Rand-Dichtung fest. Sie untersucht den Feuerwiderstand der folgenden Elemente bei Brandbeanspruchung von innen und von außen:
-   Brüstungspaneel, d. h. Schürze, aufgeständerte Brüstung oder eine Kombination daraus;
-   Rand-Dichtung;
-   Befestigung des Rahmensystems (Verankerung) zur Anbringung der Vorhangfassade am Decken-element;
-   Kombinationen dieser Elemente.
Die Ergebnisse der Prüfungen nach dieser Norm bilden die Grundlage für die Klassifizierung von Vorhang-fassaden vom Typ A (siehe 3.3 für die Definition).
Für Vorhangfassaden vom Typ B (siehe 3.4 für die Definition) dürfen die Ergebnisse zur Bestimmung des Feuerwiderstands von Teilen der Vorhangfassade angewendet werden, um den Anwendungsbereich zu erweitern, sofern bereits Prüfungen nach EN 1364 3 durchgeführt wurden. Bei vorgesehener Klassifi-zierung EW sowie bei Probekörpern mit Ecken/facettierten Probekörpern sollte EN 1364 3 angewendet werden.
Die vorliegende Europäische Norm deckt keine Doppelfassaden, Fassadenbekleidungssysteme und hinterlüftete Fassadensysteme an Außenwänden ab. Sie behandelt nicht das Brandverhalten von Vorhang-fassaden.
Diese Norm ist dafür vorgesehen, zusammen mit EN 1363 1 und EN 1363 2 sowie - für Vorhangfassaden vom Typ B - mit EN 1364 3 angewendet zu werden.
ANMERKUNG   Anhang A enthält informative Hinweise zu den Grundsätzen der Prüfung von Teilen von Vorhang-fassaden und zum Prüfverfahren.

Essais de résistance au feu des éléments non-porteurs - Partie 4: Murs rideaux - Configuration partielle

La présente Norme européenne spécifie une méthode permettant de déterminer la résistance au feu de
parties de façade rideau et de l'étanchéité périphérique. Elle étudie la résistance au feu à l'exposition interne
et externe :
⎯ du panneau d'allège, c'est-à-dire panneau d’allège suspendu, en appui ou combinaison des deux ;
ou
⎯ de l'étanchéité périphérique ; ou
⎯ des fixations du système d'ossature (ancrage) utilisées pour attacher la façade rideau à l'élément de
plancher, ci-après désignées en tant que « fixation » ; ou
⎯ de combinaisons de ceux-ci.
Les résultats des essais réalisés conformément à la présente norme servent de base au classement d'une
façade rideau de type A (voir définition en 3.2).
Pour une façade rideau de type B (voir définition en 3.3), les résultats peuvent être utilisés pour déterminer la
résistance au feu de parties de la façade rideau afin d'étendre le domaine d'application, lorsqu'elle a été
préalablement soumise à essai conformément à l'EN 1364-3. Lorsqu'un classement EW est prévu et pour les
éléments d'essai à angles/facettes, l'EN 1364-3 doit être utilisée.
La présente Norme européenne ne couvre pas les façades double peau, les systèmes de bardage et les
systèmes de façades ventilées sur des murs extérieurs. Elle ne traite pas du comportement au feu des
façades rideaux.
La présente norme est destinée à être lue conjointement à l'EN 1363-1 et à l'EN 1363-2 ainsi qu'à l'EN 1364-3
pour une façade rideau de type B.
NOTE L'Annexe A informative donne des lignes directrices concernant les principes et la méthode d'essai de parties
de façade rideau.
