4 Principle
The impact resistance of a design ETICS kit is the hard body impact resistance, determined by means of
a steel ball falling onto the surface of the kit. The energy level and corresponding dropping height is
selected from Table 1. Any damages occurring are visibly assessed (e.g. the reinforcement has become
visible from the external surface, the finishing coat or the rendering system has visibly delaminated or
been perforated) and cracks widths are measured.

To be published. Stage at the time of publication: prEN 17237:2018.
5 Test apparatus
5.1 General
For the test a steel ball is dropped from a specified height onto the surface of the test specimen (see
Table 1). A second impact (rebound) by the ball shall be avoided.
5.2 Steel ball requirements
Balls made of cutlery grade steel, AISI/SE Type 440 C and grade G100 according to ISO 3290-1 with the
weights and nominal diameters given in Table 1.
5.3 Crack measuring gauge
For measurement of the width of any cracks formed as a result of the impact of the steel ball onto the
surface of the test specimen. The gauge shall be capable measuring from 0,1 mm and be graduated in
steps of 0,05 mm.
5.4 Specimen support
The support itself shall be flat, not bend, deform or absorb impact energy during the test, e.g. concrete
support, in order not to influence the test result. !The test specimen shall be firmly held to prevent
movement during the test."
NOTE 1 Larger specimen tends to show less movement than smaller specimen.
NOTE 2 The specimen might be fixed, clamped or glued to the support so that contact between them is
maintained during the test.
5.5 Optional tube to control descent of steel ball
A vertical tube manufactured from a metal or rigid plastic can be used for this purpose with an inner
diameter at least 2 mm larger than the steel ball diameter. The walls of the tube should preferably
include regular perforated holes to prevent air within the tube becoming compressed due to the
velocity of the ball during its descent and thereby acting as a “resistance cushion” to the impact of the
ball with the specimen surface.

6 Test specimens
6.1 Preparation of a test specimen
The test specimen shall have the size/dimension to allow minimum 5 impacts taking into account the
minimum distances according to 7.2. It consists of the thermal insulation product with the rendering
system. It shall be prepared according to the system holders instructions.
6.2 Sealing and conditioning of test specimens
Sealing and conditioning of test specimen shall be according to procedure 1 or procedure 2 as follows:
Procedure 1:
The reverse side and the edges of the test specimen shall be sealed, if exposure to water occurs.
Condition the test specimens after preparation as follows:
— (23 ± 2) °C and (50 ± 5) % r. H. for at least 28 days;
!
— Conditioning according to EN 16383 test cycles, either
— heating and wetting (hw), or
— heating and wetting plus heating and cooling (hwc),
