Adhesives for load-bearing timber structures - Test methods - Part 6: Determination of the minimum pressing time under referenced conditions

This document specifies a method of determining the minimum pressing time for two glue line thicknesses, close contact glue line and 0,3 mm thick glue line (for gap filling adhesive 1,0 mm), at three temperatures. It is applicable to adhesives used in load- bearing timber structures.
This document is only intended for obtaining a reliable base of comparison of pressing time between adhesives. The method gives results that cannot be applied to the safe manufacture of timber structures without modifications for the influences of timber density/absorbency, moisture content, factory temperature and relative air humidity.

Klebstoffe für tragende Holzbauteile - Prüfverfahren - Teil 6: Bestimmung der Mindestpresszeit bei Referenzbedingungen

Dieses Dokument legt ein Verfahren zur Bestimmung der Mindestpresszeit für zwei Klebstofffugendicken, d. h. eine dünne Klebstofffuge und eine dicke Klebstofffuge (zwischen 0,3 mm und 8 mm), bei drei Temperaturen fest. Es ist anwendbar für Klebstoffe für tragende Holzbauteile.
Dieses Dokument dient nur dazu, die Mindestpresszeiten von Klebstoffen auf einer zuverlässigen Grundlage zu vergleichen. Die nach diesem Verfahren erhaltenen Ergebnisse können nicht unverändert für die zuverlässige Herstellung von Holzbauteilen verwendet werden, ohne die Einflüsse von Rohdichte und Absorptionsvermögen des Holzes, Feuchtegehalt, Verarbeitungstemperatur und relativer Luftfeuchte zu berücksichtigen.

Adhésifs pour structures portantes en bois - Méthodes d’essai - Partie 6 : Détermination du temps de pressage minimal dans des conditions de référence

Le présent document spécifie une méthode qui permet de déterminer le temps de pressage minimal pour deux épaisseurs de joint de colle (joint de colle mince et joint de colle épais entre 0,3 mm et 8 mm), à trois températures. Il s’applique aux adhésifs utilisés dans les structures portantes en bois.
Le présent document vise uniquement à obtenir une base fiable de comparaison du temps de pressage des adhésifs. Cette méthode fournit des résultats qui ne sont pas applicables sans risque à la fabrication de structures en bois, sans des modifications prenant en compte l’influence de la masse volumique du bois et de son pouvoir d’absorption, de sa teneur en humidité ainsi que de la température et de l’humidité relative de l’air dans l’usine.

Lepila za nosilne lesene konstrukcije - Preskusne metode - 6. del: Določanje najkrajšega časa stiskanja pri referenčnih pogojih

Ta dokument opisuje metodo za določanje najkrajšega časa stiskanja za dve debelini lepljenega stika, tj. za zelo tanek sloj lepljenega stika in lepljeni stik debeline 0,3 mm (za lepilo za polnjenje odprtin 1,0 mm), pri treh temperaturah. Uporablja se za lepila za nosilne lesene strukture.
Ta dokument je namenjen le za pridobivanje zanesljive podlage za primerjavo časa stiskanja med lepili. Z metodo se pridobijo rezultati, ki jih ni mogoče uporabiti za varno proizvodnjo lesenih struktur brez prilagoditev zaradi vplivov gostote/absorpcije lesa, vsebnosti vlage, tovarniške temperature in relativne vlažnosti zraka.
