Structural timber - Strength classes

This European Standard establishes a system of strength classes for general use in structural codes.
It gives characteristic strength and stiffness properties and density values for each class and the rules for the allocation of timber populations (i.e. combinations of species, source and grade) to the classes.
This standard is applicable to all softwood and hardwood timber for structural use.

Bauholz für tragende Zwecke - Festigkeitsklassen

Diese Europäische Norm legt ein System von Festigkeitsklassen für den allgemeinen Gebrauch in Bemessungsnormen fest.
Sie gibt charakteristische Werte der Festigkeit, Steifigkeit und Rohdichte für jede Klasse sowie Regeln für die Zuordnung von Holzgrundgesamtheiten (d. h. Kombinationen von Holzarten, Herkunft und Sortierklasse) zu den Klassen an.
Diese Norm gilt für alle Nadel- und Laubhölzer für tragende Zwecke.

Bois de structure - Classes de résistance

La présente norme établit un système de classes de résistance d’utilisation générale pour les codes de calculs de structures.
Elle donne, pour chaque classe, les valeurs caractéristiques des propriétés de résistance et de rigidité et les valeurs de masse volumique, ainsi que les règles d'affectation des populations de bois (c’est-à-dire les combinaisons d’essences, de provenance et de qualités) aux classes.
Cette norme s’applique à tous les bois résineux et feuillus à usage structurel.

Konstrukcijski les - Trdnostni razredi

Ta evropski standard vzpostavlja sistem trdnostnih razredov za splošno uporabo v konstrukcijskih kodeksih. Podaja značilne trdnostne lastnosti in lastnosti togosti ter vrednosti gostote za vsak razred, ter pravila za dodeljevanje populacij lesa (t.j. kombinacij vrst, vira in stopnje) v razrede. Ta standard se uporablja za ves mehki les in trdi les, ki se uporablja za konstrukcije.
