4 General
Corrugated bitumen sheets are produced using a homogeneous mixture of organic and/or inorganic
fibres and bitumen. The shape and the structure of corrugated bitumen sheets and the quality of the
raw materials guarantee the properties.
Corrugated bitumen sheets may be spun-dyed. They may also be supplied with a coloured or colourless
adhesive surface coating, which in turn may or may not have a covering of granules or fine flakes.
Corrugated bitumen sheets may be manufactured as a mono-layer or a multi-layer product.
Corrugated bitumen sheets are divided into category R and category S depending on their mechanical
properties. For category R, all mechanical properties have to pass the threshold values of that category.
For roofing applications, category R products are suitable for most climatic conditions, while Category S
products may require special installation depending on the climatic conditions.
For cladding applications, both categories are suitable.
The manufacturer’s installation guide shall be consulted to ensure that the product is installed in the
correct manner for its category.
5 Characteristics
5.1 Geometrical properties
5.1.1 Length
When tested according to 6.1.1, the tolerance on length L shall be + 1,0 %, – 0,2 %.
5.1.2 Width
When tested according to 6.1.2, the tolerance on width w shall be ± 2 %.
5.1.3 Thickness
When tested according to 6.1.3, the tolerance on thickness e shall be ± 10 %.
The thickness of the corrugated bitumen sheets shall be measured including any surface relief (surface
pattern) on the upper and lower sides (see Figure 4).
NOTE Due to the fact that the relief of the surfaces may be very different (e.g. from one manufacturer to the
other), the measurement of the thickness will give only some descriptive information and therefore cannot be
directly compared between different products.
5.1.4 Height of corrugations
When tested according to 6.1.4, the tolerance on the height of corrugations H shall be ± 6 %.
For corrugated bitumen sheets with various corrugation heights, all the declared corrugation heights
shall be measured.
5.1.5 Pitch of corrugations
When tested according to 6.1.5, the tolerance on the pitch of corrugations p shall be ± 3 %.
For corrugated bitumen sheets with various pitches and/or period of corrugation, all the declared
pitches and/or periods shall be measured.

5.1.6 Squareness
When tested according to 6.1.6, the squareness E shall be less than or equal to 4 mm/m.
5.2 Mechanical properties
5.2.1 Bending under downward load
When tested according to 6.2.1, the minimum load for a deflection of 1/200 of a span of 620 mm shall
be:
2
— category R ≥ 1 400 N/m
2
— category S > 700 N/m
NOTE For calculation of maximum permissible load in manufacturers' installation guides, other methods can
be used particularly in case of sheet shapes that do not allow the distributed downward load described in 6.2.1 to
be applied.
5.2.2 Impact strength
When tested according to 6.2.2, the falling height with a span of 620 mm shall be:
— category R = 400 mm;
— category S = 250 mm.
This characteristic is not relevant for external wall finishing products.
5.2.3 Tearing strength
When tested according to 6.2.3, the tear threshold value shall be greater than:
— category R = 200 N;
— category S = 150 N.
Where, in the case of a corrugated bitumen sheet with various corrugation heights, the manufacturer
defines which corrugation has to be used for fixing, only this corrugation has to be tested.
5.3 Physical properties
5.3.1 Water impermeability
When tested according to 6.3.1, no drop of water shall pass through the sheet after 48 h.
5.3.2 Proportion of bitumen
When tested according to 6.3.2, the bitumen content shall be equal to or greater than 40 %.
The properties are measured without any covering of granules or fine flakes.
5.3.3 Mass

5.3.5 Water absorption
When tested according to 6.3.5, the water absorption shall be less than 20 % of the mass of the sheet.
The properties are measured without any covering of granules or fine flakes.
5.3.6 Slip resistance
Due to their rough surfaces, corrugated bitumen sheets are not slippery products.
5.3.7 Load bearing capacity on the roof
Load bearing capacity depends on the method of support and fixing, which are not included in the scope
of this product standard.
NOTE The load level, the levels of safety and permissible deflection are defined in EUROCODES and/or
national building regulations.
5.4 Durability
5.4.1 Tearing strength after freeze/thaw ageing
When tested according to 6.4.1, the tearing strength shall not be lower than the initial threshold values
(5.2.3).

---------------------- Page: 18 ----------------------
oSIST prEN 534:2020

— six channels 40 / 35 / 5 mm, with a length 10 % longer than the width of the sheet;
— three supports;
— three square bars 20 / 20 mm x 40 mm;
— I-beam HEA 140 x 1 500 mm;
— hydraulic or electro-mechanical cylinder capable of supplying a force of 10 kN;
— force receiver, mounted between I-beam and the cylinder;
— one electronic elongation device accurate to 0,01 mm with a fixed disk of 20 mm on the top;
— precision metal ruler with 0,5 mm divisions.
6.2.1.2 Procedure
6.2.1.2.1 Set up
With reference to Figure 8, the four square tubes are placed on the bench, adjusted to the span of 620
mm and properly fixed to the bench. The corrugated bitumen sheet is placed on the square tubes and
adjusted centrally under the cylinder. In the case of an irregular profile, the nearest bottom of a
corrugation is always at the centre of the cylinder.
The six channels with the three supports are placed loose on the sheet and adjusted. In the middle of
each support a square bar is placed as a joint for the I-beam.
The total mass of the preload shall be equal to (60 ± 5) kg.
The elongation device is mounted rigid and vertical underneath the test piece. The position shall be
exactly in the middle between the two square tubes and at the bottom of a corrugation directly central
under the cylinder.
After applying the six channels, three supports, I-beam, the force receiver and the elongation device,
ensure that there is no gap between the corrugated bitumen sheet and the two central square tubes. If a
gap exists, the corrugated bitumen sheet is not suitable for this test and shall be changed.
Once this check has been made, the electronic elongation device is set to zero.
6.2.1.2.2 Area of the load
The width w of the corrugated bitumen sheet is measured before the test according to 6.1.2. The length
shall be three times the distance between the square tubes, i.e. 3 x 620 mm = 1 860 mm.
The area over which the load is distributed shall be calculated as:
6 2
load area = w x 1 860 / 1 x 10 [m ]

The speed of the cylinder shall be between 1 mm/min to 3 mm/min.
Force and elongation shall be recorded simultaneously, until the deflection is greater than 4,0 mm.
The test is carried out on five different corrugated bitumen sheets.

Five graphs (one for each sheet) giving deflection as a function of force shall be produced. The force at
an elongation of 3,1 mm shall be read off these graphs. The uniform load for each sheet shall be
