Introduction
Different fibre-cement flat sheets on the market are assessed for pull through resistance.
Fibre-cement flat sheets have been evaluated, for pull through resistance, by a number of test methods
designed to simulate conditions of use.
The results from the different existing methods are not directly comparable.
This document establishes an agreed method for evaluation of the pull through resistance and shear
resistance of fibre-cement flat sheet products, based on the experiences obtained over the last number of
years in different countries.
This is a testing standard with no classifications, but this test procedure may be used by national
regulators to set classifications for roof and wall assemblies.
The performance of an assembly constructed with these products depends not only on the properties of
product as required by this document, but also on the design, construction and performance of the
assembly.

EN 17468-1:2022 (E)
1 Scope
The document establishes an agreed method for evaluation of pull through resistance
(tension/compression for fasteners through the sheets), shear resistance, bending strength and bending
modulus of elasticity and suggests an approved safety concept of fibre-cement flat sheets for internal and
external wall and ceiling finishes based on the experiences obtained over the last number of years in
different countries. The results are only applicable to the fibre-cement product and not to the complete
fixing assembly.
NOTE 1 For design purposes of fibre-cement flat sheets in the final application, the failure modes pull-out and
breaking of the fixing or substructure are not in the scope of this standard. They might become decisive and need
to be tested or calculated according to the relevant design standards for fixings (e.g. EN 14592) or ETA and
substructure (e.g. Eurocode 3 for steel, Eurocode 5 for wood and Eurocode 9 for aluminium substructures) and
compared with the results for pull-through and shear resistance.
The results are also applicable for:
— Coated or uncoated sheets manufactured at the same production facility as the tested sheets
provided that the sheets are of the same type, have at least the same declared class according to
EN 12467:2012+A2:2018, Table 6 and at least the same nominal thickness.
— The test method can be applied to textured or non-textured fibre-cement flat sheets. The results of
non-textured sheets are only applicable for textured sheets if the nominal minimum thickness of the
textured sheet is at least the nominal thickness of the non-textured sheet.
— The same type of fixing head or washer assembly where applicable if the diameter of the fixing head
or washer is 0 mm to 2 mm larger than in the test.
— The Shore A hardness of the sealing washer, where applicable, is ± 5 that of the washer used in the
test, given that the washer thickness is at least as thick, the washer material at least as strong and the
shape (dome or flat) of the washer equal to what has been tested.
NOTE 2
A) For pull-through resistance, if the diameter of the drilled hole through the fibre-cement sheet is 0 mm
to 2 mm smaller or equal than in the test up to the diameter of the shank of the fastener, providing, during the test
there is the required clearance hole around the shank of the fastener.
B) For shear resistance, if the diameter of the drilled hole is equal to what has been tested.
It applies only to products as delivered.

6.2 Type testing
The pull through resistance and shear resistance tests are type tests.
6.3 Preparation of test specimens
— Cut 10 samples from 10 different flat sheets to (400 ± 5) mm × (400 ± 5) mm for the pull through
tests.
— Cut 10 samples from 10 different flat sheets to (250 ± 5) mm × (250 ± 5) mm for the shear tests.
— The specimens shall be stored under normal climatic conditions of 23 ± 5 °C and a relative air
humidity of 50 ± 20 % RH (23/50) until equilibrium of mass. The equilibrium of mass under climate
at 23 °C and 50 % RH is reached if the mass has a lower difference than 0,1 % in weighting with an
interval of 24 h. As EN 12467:2012+A2:2018, 3.10.
— The sheets shall be pre-drilled using a drill bit of nominal diameter as specified by the manufacturer.
Self-drilling screws of a nominal diameter/size can also be used as specified by the manufacturer.
For sheets category A and B (EN 12467), the specimens for pull through resistance and shear
resistance should be stored prior to the test between 7 and 14 days in ambient laboratory conditions
followed by 24 h immersion in water for sheets with thickness ≤ 20 mm or 48 h for sheets with
thickness > 20 mm.
— The specimens shall be tested immediately upon removal from the water. For sheets category C and
D (EN 12467), the specimens for pull through resistance and shear resistance should be stored prior
to the test between 7 and 14 days in ambient laboratory conditions and relevant cases shall be tested
immediately upon removal from the conditioning room.
— The conditioning described above is the normal conditioning. It is the same as the conditioning for
type testing of bending strength depending the category in accordance with EN 12467. For sheets
category A and B (EN 12467) the specimens for pull through resistance and shear resistance may be
tested similar to category C and D provided that for design appropriate correc

type test
test carried out to demonstrate conformity with the requirements of this document or for approval of a
new product and/or when a fundamental change is made in formulation and/or method of manufacture,
the effects of which cannot be predicted on the basis of previous experience
Note 1 to entry: The test is performed on the delivered product, but is not required for each batch.

including maturing and, when appropriate, painting

5 Product requirements
5.1 Composition
Fibre cement flat sheets shall have a composition according to EN 12467.
5.2 Appearance and finish
The appearance and finish shall be as defined in EN 12467.
6 Sampling procedure
6.1 Sampling method
Take an adequate number of full size sheets (minimum 10) drawn at random from a consignment of
sheets or, in the case of continuous production, from a production batch. All test specimens used on the
test assembly shall be from the same consignment or production batch. The size of the batch is chosen by
the manufacturer up to a maximum of one week’s production.
6.2 Type testing
The pull through resistance and shear resistance tests are type tests.
6.3 Preparation of test specimens
— Cut 10 samples from 10 different flat sheets to (400+/- 5)mm x (400+/- 5) mm for the pull through
tests.
— Cut 10 samples from 10 different flat sheets to (250 +/- 5) mm x (250 +/- 5) mm for the shear tests.
— The specimens shall be stored under normal climatic conditions of 20 °C and a relative air humidity
of 65 % r. H. (20/65) until equilibrium of mass. The equilibrium of mass under climate at 20 °C and
65 % r. H. is reached if the mass has a lower difference than 0.1 % in weighting with an interval of
24 h.
— The sheets shall be pre-drilled using a drill
