EN 14891:2017 (E) 8 5 Testing, assessment and sampling methods Testing and assessment methods and requirements for sampling shall be as set out in Annex A. 6 Assessment and verification of constancy of performance (AVCP) 6.1 General The compliance of liquid-applied water impermeable products with the requirements of this standard and with the performances declared by the manufacturer in the DoP shall be demonstrated by: — determination of the product type on the base of type testing; — factory production control by the manufacturer, including product assessment. The manufacturer shall always retain the overall control and shall have the necessary means to take responsibility for the conformity of the product with its declared performances. 6.2 Type testing 6.2.1 General All performances related to characteristics included in this standard shall be determined when the manufacturer intends to declare the respective performances unless the standard gives provisions for declaring them without performing tests (e.g. use of previously existing data, CWFT and conventionally accepted performance). Assessment previously performed in accordance with the provisions of this standard, may be taken into account provided that they were made to the same or a more rigorous test method, under the same AVCP system on the same product or products of similar design, construction and functionality, such that the results are applicable to the product in question. For the purposes of assessment, the liquid applied water impermeable products may be grouped into families, where it is considered that the results for one or more characteristics from any one product within the family are representative for the same characteristics for all products within that same family. NOTE 1 Products are grouped in different families for different characteristics. NOTE 2 The assessment method standards are chosen to allow the selection of a suitable representative sample. In addition, the determination of the product type shall be performed for all characteristics included in the standard for which the manufacturer declares the performance: — at the beginning of the production of a new liquid applied water impermeable product (unless a member of the same product range), or — at the beginning of a new or modified method of production (where this may affect the stated properties), or — they shall be repeated for the appropriate characteristic(s), whenever a change occurs in the product design, in the raw material or in the supplier of the components, or in the method of production (subject to the definition of a family), which would affect significantly one or more of the characteristics. Where components (e.g. cement) are used whose characteristics have already been determined by the component supplier on the basis of conformity with other product standards, these characteristics need SIST EN 14891:2017



EN 14891:2017 (E) 9 not be re-assessed to demonstrate compliance with the European Standard. The specifications of these components shall be documented. Products bearing regulatory marking in accordance with appropriate harmonized European specifications may be presumed to have the performances declared in the DoP, although this does not replace the responsibility on the liquid-applied water impermeable products manufacturer to ensure that liquid-applied water impermeable products as a whole is correctly manufactured and its component products have the declared performance values. 6.2.2 Test samples, testing and compliance criteria The number of samples of liquid-applied water impermeable product and the testing method to be tested/assessed shall be in accordance with Annex A (A.6, A.7 and A.8) and Table 2. Table 2 — Number of samples to be tested and compliance criteria Characteristic Requirement Assessment method No. of samples Compliance criteria Initial tensile adhesion strength Clause 4 A.6 1 Table 1.a of Clause 4 Tensile adhesion strength after water contact Clause 4 A.6 1 Table 1.a of Clause 4 Tensile adhesion strength after heat ageing Clause 4 A.6 1 Table 1.a of Clause 4 Tensile adhesion strength after freeze–thaw cycles Clause 4 A.6 1 Table 1.a of Clause 4 Tensile adhesion strength after contact with lime water Clause 4 A.6 1 Table 1.a of Clause 4 Waterproofing Clause 4 A.7 1 Table 1.a of Clause 4 Crack-bridging ability under standard conditions Clause 4 A.8 1 Table 1.a of Clause 4 Tensile adhesion strength after contact with chlorinated water Clause 4 A.6 1 Table 1.b of Clause 4 Crack-bridging ability at low temperature Clause 4 A.8 1 Table 1.b of Clause 4 6.2.3 Test reports The results of the determination of the product type shall be documented in test reports. All test reports shall be retained by the manufacturer for at least 10 years after the last date of production of the liquid-applied water impermeable product to which they relate. 6.2.4 Shared other party results A manufacturer may use the results of the product type determination obtained by someone else (e.g. by another manufacturer, as a common service to manufacturers, or by a product developer), to justify his own declaration of performance regarding a product that is manufactured according to the same design (e.g. dimensions) and with raw materials, constituents and manufacturing methods of the same kind, provided that: SIST EN 14891:2017



EN 14891:2017 (E) 10 — the results are known to be valid for products with the same essential characteristics relevant for the product performance; — in addition to any information essential for confirming that the product has such same performances related to specific essential characteristics, the other party who has carried out the determination of the product type concerned or has had it carried out, has expressly accepted (by licence, contract, or any other type of written consent) to transmit to the manufacturer the results and the test report to be used for the latter’s product type determination, as well as information regarding production facilities and the production control process that can be taken into account for FPC; — the manufacturer using other party results accepts to remain responsible for the product having the declared performances and he also: — ensures that the product has the same characteristics relevant for performance as the one that has been subjected to the determination of the product type, and that there are no significant differences with regard to production facilities and the production control process compared to that used for the product that was subjected to the determination of the product type; and — keeps available a copy of the determination of the product type report that also contains the information needed for verifying that the product is manufactured according to the same design and with raw materials, constituents and manufacturing methods of the same kind. 6.3 Factory Production Control (FPC) 6.3.1 General The manufacturer shall establish, document and maintain an FPC system to ensure that the products placed on the market comply with the declared performance of the essential characteristics. The FPC system shall consist of procedures, regular inspections and tests and/or assessments and the use of the results to control raw and other incoming materials or components, equipment, the production process and the product. All the elements, requirements and provisions adopted by the manufacturer shall be documented in a systematic manner in the form of written policies and procedures. This factory production control system documentation shall ensure a common understanding of the evaluation of the constancy of performance and enable the achievement of the required product performances and the effective operation o

This European Standard applies to all liquid-applied water impermeable products, based on polymer modified
cementitious mortars, dispersions and reaction resin coatings, used beneath ceramic tiling, for external tile
installations on walls and floors and in swimming pools.
This European Standard gives the terminology concerning the products and specifies the test methods and
the values of performance requirements for liquid-applied water impermeable products associated with tile
adhesives.
This European Standard specifies the evaluation of conformity and the classification and designation of liquid-
applied water impermeable products beneath ceramic tiling.
This European Standard does not contain recommendations for the design and installation of ceramic tiles
and grouts in combination with water impermeable products.
NOTE 1 Liquid-applied water impermeable products may also be used beneath other types of tiles (natural and
agglomerated stones, etc.), where they do not adversely affect these materials.
NOTE 2 The user of this European Standard should be familiar with normal laboratory practice. This European
Standard does not purport to address all the safety problems associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user to

member state of destination.
National regulations on dangerous substances may require verification and declaration on release, and
sometimes content, when construction products covered by this standard are placed on those markets. In the
absence of European harmonised test methods, verification and declaration on release/content should be
done taking into account national provisions in the place of use.
NOTE An informative database covering European and national provisions on dangerous substances is available at
the Construction web site on EUROPA accessed through: http://ec.europa.eu/enterprise/construction/cpd-ds/‖
5 Testing, assessment and sampling methods

6 Assessment and verification of constancy of performance – AVCP
6.1 General
The compliance of liquid-applied water impermeable products with the requirements of this standard and with
the performances declared by the manufacturer in the DoP shall be demonstrated by:
 determination of the product type on the base of type testing;
7

---------------------- Page: 9 ----------------------
oSIST prEN 14891:2015
prEN 14891:2014 (E)
 factory production control by the manufacturer, including product assessment.
The manufacturer shall always retain the overall control and shall have the necessary means to take
responsibility for the conformity of the product with its declared performances.
6.2 Type testing
6.2.1 General
All performances related to characteristics included in this standard shall be determined when the
manufacturer intends to declare the respective performances unless the standard gives provisions for
declaring them without performing tests. (e.g. use of previously existing data, CWFT and conventionally
accepted performance).
Assessment previously performed in accordance with the provisions of this standard, may be taken into
account provided that they were made to the same or a more rigorous test method, under the same AVCP
system on the same product or products of similar design, construction and functionality, such that the results
are applicable to the product in question.
For the purposes of assessment, the liquid applied water impermeable products may be grouped into families,
where it is considered that the results for one or more characteristics from any one product within the family
are representative for that same characteristics for all products within that same family
NOTE 1 Products may be grouped in different families for different characteristics.
NOTE 2 Reference to the assessment method standards should be made to allow the selection of a suitable
representative sample.
In addition, the determination of the product type shall be performed for all characteristics included in the
standard for which the manufacturer declares the performance:
 at the beginning of the production of a new liquid applied water impermeable product (unless a member
of the same product range), or
 at the beginning of a new or modified method of production (where this may affect the stated properties),
or
 they shall be repeated for the appropriate characteristic(s), whenever a change occurs in the product
design, in the raw material or in the supplier of the components, or in the method of production (subject to
the definition of a family), which would affect significantly one or more of the characteristics.
Only one TT is required where different manufacturing units are producing the same product, for the same
manufacturer, using the same materials (having the same performance) and documented production and
process control.
Where components (e.g. cement) are used whose characteristics have already been determined by the
component supplier on the basis of conformity with other product standards, these characteristics need not be
re-assessed to demonstrate compliance with the European Standard. The specifications of these components
shall be documented.
Products bearing regulatory marking in accordance with appropriate harmonized European specifications may
be presumed to have the performances declared in the DoP, although this does not replace the responsibility
on the liquid-applied water impermeable products manufacturer to ensure that liquid-applied water
impermeable products as a whole is correctly manufactured and its component products have the declared
performance values.

6.2.3 Test reports
The results of the determination of the product type shall be documented in test reports. All test reports shall
be retained by the manufacturer for at least 10 years after the last date of production of the liquid-applied
water impermeable product to which they relate.
6.2.4 Shared other party results
A manufacturer may use the results of the product type determination obtained by someone else (e.g. by
another manufacturer, as a common service to manufacturers, or by a product developer), to justify his own
declaration of performance regarding a product that is manufactured according to the same design (e.g.
dimensions) and with raw materials, constituents and manufacturing methods of the same kind, provided that:
 the results are known to be valid for products with the same essential characteristics relevant for the
product performance;
 in addition to any information essential for confirming that the product has such same performances
related to specific essential characteristics, the other party who has carried out the determination of the
product type concerned or has had it carried out, has expressly accepted (by licence, contract, or any
other type of written consent) to transmit to the manufacturer the results and the test report to be used for
the latter’s product type determination, as well as information regarding production facilities and the
production control process that can be taken into account for FPC;
 the manufacturer using other party results accepts to remain responsible for the product having the
declared performances and he also:
 ensures that the product has the same characteristics relevant for performance as the one that has been
subjected to the determination of the product type, and that there are no significant differences with
regard to production facilities and the production control process compared to that used for the product
that was subjected to the determination of the product type; and

needed for verifying that the product is manufactured according to the same design and with raw
materials, constituents and manufacturing methods of the same kind.
6.3 Factory Production Control (FPC)
6.3.1 General
The manufacturer shall establish, document and maintain an FPC system to ensure that the products placed
on the market comply with the declared performance of the essential characteristics.
The FPC system shall consist of procedures, regular inspections and tests and/or assessments and the use of
the results to control raw and other incoming materials or components, equipment, the production process and
the product.
