SIST EN 16025-2:2013 is the Slovenian national adoption of EN 16025-2:2013 from CEN. It specifies how factory premixed EPS dry plaster is processed into in-situ formed bound EPS (BEPS) for thermal insulation in buildings. The standard is written for installers, specifiers and customers who need the site checks, declared properties and installer declaration for BEPS insulation.

What does SIST EN 16025-2:2013 specify?

SIST EN 16025-2:2013 specifies requirements for installed BEPS insulation used on walls, ceilings, roofs and floors. It is a specification for the installed product, not for a factory-made insulation board or bagged product ready for market.

SIST EN 16025-2:2013 works together with EN 16025-1. EN 16025-2 covers the installed product and the site checks, while EN 16025-1 provides the product requirements for the factory premixed EPS dry plaster that is installed on site.

The document is organized into:

• Scope
• Normative references
• Terms and definitions and symbols
• Requirements
• Guidelines for installation
• Installer’s declaration
• Bibliography

What are the key requirements of SIST EN 16025-2:2013?

SIST EN 16025-2:2013 focuses on site control, declared properties and traceability. The installer has to check the building, measure the installed product and provide a declaration that records what was installed.

• Use a product that complies with EN 16025-1 - Clause 4.1 requires the installer to use a bound EPS insulation product that meets the companion product standard. In practice, the installed insulation starts with a product that already matches the defined material requirements.

• Check whether the building is suitable for installation - Clause 4.2 requires inspection of the building in line with the manufacturer’s guidelines, and national rules may also apply. This matters because the installer must confirm that the substrate and site conditions are acceptable before work begins.

• Control the apparent density of the fresh mortar - Clause 4.3 requires checks at least every 10 m3 during installation. A 5 l sample is used, the result is recorded on the delivery note, and records are kept for at least three years. This gives a simple site control for consistency of the mixed material.

• Measure the installed thickness on site - Clause 4.4 requires at least five thickness measurements for every 100 m2, using the pin-plate method from EN 823:2013, B.1. The individual values and mean value, dN, are recorded. For the reader, this means thickness is verified by measurement, not assumed from the design.

• Declare thermal resistance, RD - Clause 4.5 allows RD to be taken from EN 16025-1 information or calculated as d/λD. The clause also points to EN ISO 10456 for moisture and temperature corrections and EN ISO 6946 for whole-element calculations. The value is rounded down to the nearest 0.05 m2K/W, which keeps the declared value conservative.

• Check the density of the installed BEPS - Clause 4.6 requires density checks every 100 m3, and at least once per site. A specimen of at least 3 l is used, the result is recorded and made available to the client on request, and specimens are kept for at least six months.

• Confirm readiness for covering - Clause 4.7 requires residual moisture content to be determined in accordance with EN ISO 12570. The product is ready when accessibility is proven and the residual moisture content fits the later floor structure. The accessibility check uses a 0.2 kN point load on a 50 cm2 support surface for 120 s, with deformation not exceeding 3 mm.

• Issue the installer’s declaration - Clause 6 requires the installer to declare that the work was carried out according to the document and using an EN 16025-1 product. The declaration includes the place and date, installed thicknesses, thermal resistance, apparent density, product quantity, and, if requested, the BEPS density, trade name and designation code.

What terms does SIST EN 16025-2:2013 define?

• Installed thickness of the bound EPS - the thickness of the BEPS as installed by the installer.
• Nominal thickness of the bound EPS - the thickness specified by the specifier.
• Specifier - the person responsible for defining the insulation volume, thickness and product type for a given application.
• Installer - the person, company or organization responsible for the installation process.
• Fresh mortar - EPS dry mortar mixed with water on the construction site.
• Bound EPS (BEPS) - installed and hardened fresh mortar used as thermal and/or impact sound insulation.
• dN - the declared installed thickness of the BEPS product.
• RD - the declared installed thermal resistance.

Who uses SIST EN 16025-2:2013?

SIST EN 16025-2:2013 is used by insulation installers, site supervisors and contractors who place BEPS in buildings. It is also used by specifiers and designers who define the insulation thickness and product type, and by customers who need the installer’s declaration.

Quality control staff and buyers use it to check measurement records, declared thickness, density and thermal resistance. It is relevant to building insulation work on walls, ceilings, roofs and floors.

Which standards are used with SIST EN 16025-2:2013?

• EN 16025-1:2013 - gives the requirements for factory premixed EPS dry plaster and the product data used to declare the installed BEPS.
• EN 823:2013 - provides the thickness determination method used for installed thickness measurements.
• EN ISO 9229:2007 - provides vocabulary for thermal insulation terms.
• EN ISO 12570 - provides the method for determining residual moisture content.
• EN ISO 10456 - provides procedures for correcting thermal conductivity values for moisture and temperature effects.
• EN ISO 6946 - provides the calculation method for thermal resistance and thermal transmittance of building elements.

What does the SIST EN 16025-2:2013 document contain?

SIST EN 16025-2:2013 contains site measurement procedures, calculation rules and declaration content for installed BEPS insulation. It gives methods for checking fresh mortar density, installed thickness, installed BEPS density and readiness for covering.

The document also includes the thermal resistance formula in clause 4.5 and a point-load deformation test in clause 4.7. Its final clause sets out the information the installer must give to the customer, so the document supports both site quality control and project records.

The second part, which is the non-harmonised part, covers the specification for the installed products. Both parts need to be used for the application of the insulation product in the end-use applications covered by the standard. Attention is drawn to the need to take into account any complementary member state rules (e.g. installation rules) which together with this document ensure the fitness for purpose of the installed product. This document is one of a series for mineral wool, expanded clay, expanded perlite, exfoliated vermiculite, polyurethane/polyisocyanurate, cellulose, bound EPS and expanded polystyrene in-situ formed insulation products used in buildings, but this document may be used in other areas where appropriate. The reduction in energy used and emissions produced during the installed life of insulation products exceeds by far the energy used and emissions made during the production and disposal processes.
