Overview

EN 12310-2:2018 - Flexible sheets for waterproofing: Determination of resistance to tearing - Part 2: Plastic and rubber sheets for roof waterproofing - specifies a laboratory method to measure the tear resistance of plastic and rubber roof waterproofing sheets. The method uses a trapezoidal test specimen with a nick or cut and records the maximum force required to propagate the tear. This standard is intended for product characterization (as manufactured or supplied), not for in‑situ installed membrane systems.

Key Topics

• Test principle: Measure the peak force required to tear a pre‑notched trapezoidal specimen using a tensile testing machine until break.
• Specimen geometry & preparation: Templates define the trapezoidal shape and nick; five specimens are cut for each direction (longitudinal and transverse) to assess directional tear resistance.
• Conditioning: Specimens conditioned for at least 20 hours at (23 ± 2) °C and (50 ± 5) % RH prior to testing.
• Test apparatus & settings:
  • Tensile testing machine with continuous force/extension recording and uniform grip separation.
  • Loading capacity of at least 2 000 N.
  • Grip separation speed (100 ± 10) mm/min.
  • Grip width not less than 50 mm; grips must limit specimen slip to ≤1 mm for products ≤3 mm thick and ≤2 mm for thicker products.
  • Force measurement accuracy to at least Class 2 (EN ISO 7500-1).
• Results & reporting:
  • Report maximum force (N) for each specimen; compute arithmetic mean tear force for each direction (LF and TF).
  • Discard and retest if slip exceeds permitted limits.
  • Test report to reference EN 12310-2 and include sampling, specimen prep, environmental conditions, and any deviations.

Applications

• Quality control and product development for roof waterproofing membranes, including polymeric and elastomeric sheets.
• Verification of material performance for manufacturers, independent testing laboratories, and conformity assessment bodies.
• Technical specification input for architects, roof system designers, and procurement teams who need validated tear resistance data when selecting membranes.
• Supporting documentation for product datasheets and compliance evidence in tendering or certification processes.
