Overview

The SIST EN 13707:2005/kprA2:2009 standard, titled Flexible Sheets for Waterproofing - Reinforced Bitumen Sheets for Roof Waterproofing - Definitions and Characteristics, is developed by CEN Technical Committee CEN/TC 254. This European Standard defines key terms and technical characteristics for reinforced bitumen sheets used in roof waterproofing applications. It provides updated guidelines and modifications regarding fire performance, impact resistance, flexibility at low temperatures, marking, and factory production control for these flexible sheets.

This standard supports manufacturers, architects, constructors, and regulatory bodies by establishing consistent terminology and essential product characteristics to ensure the durability, safety, and performance of bitumen waterproofing membranes.

Key Topics

  • Definitions and Characteristics: Precise definitions related to reinforced bitumen sheets, detailing physical and mechanical properties.

  • Fire Performance: Clarifications on external fire performance and reaction to fire, including test methods based on EN 13501-5 and EN ISO 11925-2. It distinguishes product-level reaction to fire tests from system-level resistance to fire evaluations.

  • Resistance to Impact: Specifies testing in alignment with EN 12691, focusing on puncture resistance and defining the maximum drop height of the test tool without causing leakage.

  • Flexibility at Low Temperature: Provides guidance on testing methodology with respect to reinforcement placement and surface protection on the sheets.

  • Marking, Labelling, and Packaging: Updates on labelling practices to ensure product traceability and compliance with regulatory standards.

  • Factory Production Control (FPC): Emphasizes correlation methods between direct and indirect control tests to streamline quality control processes.

  • Testing Frequencies and System Characteristics: Revises frequency requirements for production control tests and clarifies classifications for multilayer roofing systems with or without permanent heavy surface protection such as ballast.

Applications

  • Roof Waterproofing Systems: This standard applies principally to flexible reinforced bitumen sheets utilized for multi-layer roofing systems aimed at providing reliable waterproof barriers.

  • Building Construction Materials: Relevant for construction professionals selecting suitable waterproofing membranes that meet standardized safety, durability, and performance criteria.

  • Fire Safety Compliance: Guides manufacturers and installers on compliance with fire reaction and resistance tests crucial for meeting European construction directives.

  • Quality Assurance: Used by production facilities to establish effective factory production control ensuring product consistency, durability, and regulatory adherence.

  • Roof Gardens and Heavy Surface Protection: Addresses performance characteristics for membranes under permanent heavy loads, such as in green roofs and ballasted systems.

Related Standards

  • EN 13501-5: Fire classification of construction products and building elements, relevant for testing the reaction to fire performance of bitumen sheets.

  • EN ISO 11925-2: Test method for determination of the ignitability of building products subjected to direct impingement of flame.

  • EN 12691: Specifies test methods for resistance to impact for flexible sheets in waterproofing applications.

  • EN 13707 (Original): The base European Standard covering reinforced bitumen sheets for roof waterproofing.

  • CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations: Framework governing implementation and amendment of European standards.


SIST EN 13707:2005/kprA2:2009 ensures that reinforced bitumen sheets used for roof waterproofing conform to stringent European definitions and physical standards. By harmonizing definitions, enhancing fire safety testing protocols, and optimizing production control methods, this standard plays a critical role in advancing the reliability and safety of roofing waterproofing systems across Europe. Professionals in construction and materials manufacturing benefit from adhering to this updated standard for compliance, enhanced durability, and consistent product quality in flexible waterproofing solutions.
