Gypsum board thermal/acoustic insulation composite panels are for convenience referred to elsewhere in this European Standard as “composites” 4 Requirements 4.1 General The gypsum board and the insulating material shall comply with their respective European Standards. Further requirements of the insulating material are given below. Acoustic and thermal insulation performance vary according to the type of the insulating material, its thickness, its application and system. SIST EN 13950:2014



EN 13950:2014 (E) 8 4.2 Fire behaviour 4.2.1 Reaction to fire When the intended use of gypsum board thermal/acoustic composite panels is for exposed situations in building construction works, composites shall be tested with their edges protected and classified in accordance with EN 13501-1. Composites tested according to EN 13823 (SBI test) shall be mounted and fixed (see Annex B). Composites tested according to EN ISO 11925-2 (small flame test) shall be tested on the face only as the edges are never exposed in use. 4.2.2 Fire resistance NOTE Resistance to fire is a characteristic dependent on an assembled system and not of the product in isolation. When the manufacturer wishes to determine the fire resistance performance of a system including composites, the system shall be tested and classified according to EN 13501-2. 4.3 Water vapour permeability (expressed as water vapour resistance factor) Water vapour permeability is not a characteristic of heterogeneous products like composites. When the intended use of composites is for moisture diffusion control, the water vapour resistance of the composites shall be determined in accordance with the test method described in EN ISO 12572. NOTE The generic values of water vapour resistance given in EN ISO 10456 can be used for calculation. 4.4 Flexural strength Composites shall have a minimum transverse breaking load of 160 N and longitudinal breaking load of 400 N when determined in accordance with EN 520 or EN 15283-1 and EN 15283-2. This shall be ensured by using gypsum boards having those mechanical performances. 4.5 Impact resistance NOTE Impact resistance is a characteristic dependent on an assembled system and not of the product in isolation. When the manufacturer wishes to determine the impact resistance performance of a system including composite panels, the system shall be tested and classified according to ISO 7892. 4.6 Direct airborne sound insulation NOTE Direct airborne sound insulation is a characteristic dependent on an assembled system and not of the product in isolation. When the manufacturer wishes to determine the direct airborne sound insulation of a system including composites, the system shall be tested and classified according to EN ISO 10140 (all parts) as appropriate. 4.7 Acoustic absorption NOTE Acoustic absorption is a characteristic dependent on an assembled system and not of the product in isolation. When the manufacturer wishes to determine the acoustic absorption of a system including composites, the system shall be tested and classified according to EN ISO 354. SIST EN 13950:2014



EN 13950:2014 (E) 9 4.8 Thermal resistance of the panel The thermal resistance of the composite panel shall be obtained by the addition of the thermal resistances of the components and expressed in m2 × K/W. When a manufacturer wishes to declare thermal resistance, the thermal resistance may be calculated on the basis of tabulated data, testing or combination of them both. Design thermal resistance values of gypsum boards are given in EN ISO 10456. EN 12939 and EN 12667 give test methods for the thermal resistance of insulating products. 4.9 Dimensions and tolerances Width and length of the composite panels are determined by the boards used in accordance with the relevant standards The nominal thickness of the composite panels shall be given by the manufacturer. — Gypsum boards with a minimum nominal thickness as given in the relevant standards; — insulating material with a minimum nominal thickness as given in the relevant standards. The thickness shall be measured as described in 5.2.1. The tolerance for each individual measurement for the thickness of the composite panels shall be ± 3 mm. 4.10 Offset The offset range when determined as described in 5.3 shall not exceed: — width direction: − 5 mm to + 5 mm; — length direction: − 5 mm to + 8 mm. The two measurements on the same side shall not differ by more than 5 mm. Within this range, different offset arrangements are possible to satisfy different applications. Composite panels can be classified N when the offset is negative (insulating material back from the board) and P when positive (insulating material out of the board). 4.11 Flatness of the composite The deviation from flatness of the composite, determined according to 5.5, shall not exceed 5 mm. 4.12 Adhesion/cohesion of the insulating material When the tensile strength is measured in accordance with 5.4, no value shall be less than 0,017 MPa for class 1 composites or less than 0,003 MPa for class 2 composites. If the manufacturer wishes to declare a higher value for class 1 no value shall be less than 0,04 MPa. 4.13 Dangerous substances 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. SIST EN 13950:2014



EN 13950:2014 (E) 10 In the absence of European harmonized 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 website on EUROPA accessed through: http://ec.europa.eu/enterprise/construction/cpd-ds/ 5 Test methods 5.1 Sampling Tests shall be carried out on three composite panels of each type and thickness. For testing core adhesion/cohesion specimens shall be cut out from one single panel. 5.2 Dimensional measurements 5.2.1 Thickness 5.2.1.1 Principle The distance between the two faces of the composite panel shall be measured. 5.2.1.2 Apparatus A caliper permitting readings to the nearest 0,5 mm. 5.2.1.3 Procedure Take three measurements on each end to the nearest 0,5 mm at equal intervals across the width and at least 25 mm from the end and 100 mm from the edges (see Figure 1). 5.2.1.4 Expression of results Each measured value expressed in millimetres shall be recorded and compared to the nominal thickness of the composite.
