Design and application of gypsum blocks

This European Standard defines the rules for the design of gypsum blocks as specified in EN 12859, assembled with adhesives as specified in EN 12860. Accessory products are also defined in this document.  It is applicable to non-loadbearing partition walls and internal insulation of walls in rooms of residential buildings, offices, hospitals, schools etc. and to linings of posts, beams, ducts, shafts etc, that are suitable to receive finishes such as paint and wallpaper without any prior traditional plastering, but having had normal preparation prior to painting.
Certain components requiring special provisions are not covered by this standard and require special consideration.

Planung und Ausführung von Bauteilen aus Gips-Wandbauplatten

Diese Europäische Norm legt Planungs- und Ausführungsregeln für Bauteile fest, die aus Gips-Wandbauplatten nach EN 12859, verbunden mit einem Gipskleber nach EN 12860, hergestellt werden. Die Zubehörteile sind in diesem Dokument ebenfalls beschrieben. Sie gilt für nichttragende Trennwände und Vorsatzschalen in Räumen von Wohngebäuden, Bürogebäuden, Krankenhäusern, Schulen usw. sowie für Ummantelungen von Stützen, Trägern, Abmauerung von Schächten, Leitungen usw. deren Oberflächen ohne vorherigen Putzauftrag, bei Durchführung der üblichen Vorbehandlung für Malerarbeiten, als Untergrund für die direkte Aufnahme von Anstrich oder Tapeten geeignet sind.
Bestimmte Bauteile, für die besondere Vorkehrungen notwendig sind, werden in dieser Norm nicht behandelt  und sind zum Gegenstand besonderer Untersuchungen zu machen.

Conception et exécution des ouvrages en carreaux de plâtre

La présente norme européenne définit les regles de conception et d'exécution des ouvrages réalisées en carreaux de plâtre définis par la Norme Européenne EN 12859, assemblés au moyen d'un liant-colle défini dans la norme Européenne EN 12860. Les produits accessoires sont définis dans le présent document
Elle s'applique aux ouvrages de cloison non porteurs et de doublage de murs des locaux a usage d'habitation, de bureaux, d'hôpitaux, scolaires, etc? ainsi qu'aux habillages de poteaux, de poutres, de gaines, conduits, etc?,  susceptibles de recevoir les finitions telles que peinture ou papier peint sans exécution préalable d'un enduit traditionnel au plâtre, sous réserve des préparations habituelles avant mise en peinture.
Certains ouvrages qui nécessitent des dispositions particulieres ne sont pas traités dans la présente norme et doivent faire l'objet d'une étude spécifique.
