External pedestrian door assemblies fulfilling the provisions of this European Standard under the responsibility of one identified manufacturer are considered to be external pedes-trian doorsets 3.2 overall area frame width x frame height (see EN 12519:2004, 3.4) 3.3 screen assembly of two or more windows and/or external pedestrian doorsets in one plane with or without separate frames 3.4 similar design
modification by the replacement of components (e.g. glazing, hardware, weather stripping), and/or a change of material specification and/or dimensional change of profile section and/or methods and means of assembly which will not change the classification and/or declared value of a performance characteristic NOTE Certain modifications might cause more favourable values for one or more characteristics, but also more unfa-vourable values for other characteristics (see Annex A). 3.5 unframed glass doorset doorset where the leaf (leaves) and any adjacent part(s) are made of glass (e.g. single or insulating glass unit) and without any load bearing or load transferring framework 3.6 adjacent part any part of a doorset, other than the door leaf (leaves), including outer frame, side panels, and overpanels 4 Performance characteristics and special requirements 4.1 General The performance characteristics for windows and external pedestrian doorsets shall be determined and ex-pressed in accordance with 4.2 to 4.23. NOTE 1 Not all these characteristics are applicable to every product or every intended end use situation. Where characteristics are required this European Standard identifies the means of determination and the ways to express the results as well as the evaluation of conformity. NOTE 2 The order in which the performance characteristics are identified does not imply an order of priority or a test sequence. NOTE 3 Special requirements for certain products, see 4.24.
EN 14351-1:2006(E) 10 4.2 Resistance to wind load Tests on windows and external pedestrian doorsets shall be carried out in accordance with EN 12211. The de-flection of frame elements (e.g. transoms and mullions) shall be determined by calculation or by test (reference method). The results shall be expressed in accordance with EN 12210. The air permeability tests and classification re-ferred to in EN 12210 shall be in accordance with 4.14. The manufacturer shall provide sufficient information on the infill to enable the determination of the load-bearing capacity of the infill, e.g. information on the thickness and type of glass. NOTE When appropriate European Standards are in place, the determination of the load-bearing capacity should be carried out as prescribed in those European Standards. 4.3 Resistance to snow and permanent load The manufacturer shall provide sufficient information on the infill to enable the determination of the load-bearing capacity of the infill, e.g. information on the thickness and type of glass. NOTE When appropriate European Standards are in place, the determination of the load-bearing capacity should be carried out as prescribed in those European Standards. 4.4 Fire characteristics
4.4.1 Reaction to fire The (materials used in) roof windows shall be tested and classified in accordance with EN 13501-1. 4.4.2 External fire performance
Roof windows shall be tested and classified in accordance with EN 13501-5. 4.5 Watertightness A watertightness test shall be carried out in accordance with EN 1027. The results shall be expressed in accordance with EN 12208. The test for watertightness of screens shall be carried out on the screen or on its individual parts. In the latter case the designation of the screen shall be determined by the part(s) with the most unfavourable performance. 4.6 Dangerous substances In so far as the state of the art permits, the manufacturer shall establish those materials in the product which are liable to emission or migration during normal intended use and for which emission or migration into the en-vironment is potentially dangerous to hygiene, health or the environment. The manufacturer shall establish and make the appropriate declaration of content according to the legal requirements in the intended country of des-tination. NOTE An informative database of European and national provisions on dangerous substances is identified in An-nex ZA. 4.7 Impact resistance Windows and external pedestrian doorsets fitted with glass or other fragmental material shall be tested and the results shall be expressed in accordance with EN 13049. Where relevant, the test shall be carried out from both sides.
