Overview

EN 13915:2017 specifies definitions, requirements and test methods for prefabricated gypsum plasterboard panels with a cellular paperboard core. It applies to panels made from gypsum plasterboard facings (complying with EN 520) and a cellular paperboard core intended for use as lightweight partitions, linings and encasements in buildings. The standard addresses panel characteristics, associated system performance (when panels are assembled into systems), and the processes required for the assessment and verification of constancy of performance (AVCP).

Key topics and requirements

• Scope and installation: Applies only to prefabricated panels installed so that the cellular core is not exposed.
• Core panel characteristics: Defines requirements and test methods for:
  • Reaction to fire (using European reaction-to-fire tests)
  • Water vapour permeability (expressed as water vapour resistance factor)
  • Flexural strength (breaking load / deflection under defined load)
  • Thermal resistance (thermal conductivity measured per European methods)
• System-related characteristics (to be determined on assembled systems, if required): shear strength, fire resistance, direct airborne sound insulation, acoustic absorption, and air permeability. Tests should simulate end-use conditions where applicable.
• Additional product attributes: dimensions and tolerances, alignment, core adhesion, surface hardness, panel flatness, release of dangerous substances, marking, labelling and packaging.
• Testing and conformity: Sampling rules, detailed test procedures (e.g., alignment, deflection, core adhesion), and expression of results are included. The standard sets out AVCP procedures, type testing and Factory Production Control (FPC) requirements for ongoing quality assurance.

Practical applications and users

• Architects and specifiers: to select compliant prefabricated gypsum plasterboard panels for interior partitions, linings and encasements where lightweight construction and specific fire, thermal or acoustic performance are required.
• Manufacturers: to design, test and certify panel products in accordance with EN 13915:2017 and to implement FPC and AVCP processes for CE marking and market access in CEN member states.
• Test laboratories and certification bodies: to perform the required European test methods and AVCP tasks, and to verify constancy of performance.
• Contractors and façade/partition installers: to ensure correct installation (core not exposed) and to verify product performance for on-site compliance and acoustic/fire-resistance system testing.

Related standards

EN 13915 references and works alongside key European standards, for example:

• EN 520 (gypsum plasterboards)
• EN 13501-1 / EN 13501-2 (fire classification)
• EN 13823 (SBI reaction-to-fire test)
• EN 12664 (thermal resistance measurement)
• EN ISO 354, ISO 717-1, EN ISO 10140-2 (acoustic test methods)

EN 13915:2017 is essential for professionals specifying or producing gypsum-based prefabricated panels where reliable fire, thermal and moisture performance - and demonstrated conformity - are required.
