Overview
EN 13583:2012 (CEN) defines a standardized laboratory method to determine the hail resistance of flexible sheets for roof waterproofing (bitumen, plastic and rubber). The standard specifies a simulated-hail puncture test using a polyamide ball to assess whether a sheet is perforated by impact and reports the damaging velocity (vd) that produces perforation. Although focused on roof membranes, the method may also be applied to other waterproofing sheets.
Key topics and technical requirements
- Test principle: A polyamide ball is propelled by a pneumatic drive to strike the specimen; impact velocity is measured by photo-cells and varied to identify the damaging velocity (vd).
- Test projectile: Polyamide (PA 6.6) ball, mass (38.5 ± 0.5) g, diameter (40.0 ± 0.5) mm; smooth, defect-free surface.
- Supports: Two support conditions are defined:
- Hard support: steel plate with P120 silicon-carbide sandpaper (laid crosswise to sheet machine direction); steel plate temperature (10 ± 2) °C.
- Soft support: steel plate with an expanded polystyrene (EPS) panel (20 mm thick) with compressive stress CS(10) between 100 kPa and 110 kPa.
- Test area and conditioning: Ball impacts centered within a (200 ± 2) mm diameter opening; specimens conditioned 24 h at (23 ± 2) °C, 50 ± 10 % RH. Test area cooled to (0 ± 2) °C for (180 ± 30) s before impact.
- Result expression: Hail resistance is given as vd rounded to 1 m/s - the velocity that causes perforation in at most one out of five shots on hard and/or soft support.
- Precision & calibration: Speed measurement calibrated over 10–40 m/s; method precision approx. 10 %. Visual and vacuum/soap-bubble checks are specified to confirm perforation.
- Test report requirements: Product ID, thickness/mass (EN 1849-1/2), sampling, sandpaper type, EPS CS(10), procedure details, results and test date.
Applications and users
EN 13583:2012 is used for:
- Product development and quality control by membrane manufacturers to benchmark hail resistance.
- Independent testing labs for certification and performance reporting.
- Architects, specifiers and roof system designers to select membranes suitable for hail-prone regions.
- Contractors and asset owners for risk assessment, warranty validation and procurement.
- Regulators and standards bodies integrating performance criteria into building specifications.
