—   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.

-   Permanently fixed ladders on roofs according to EN 12951:2004.
-   Permanent anchor devices and safety hooks fixed with nails.

This document establishes requirements for factory-made structural double skin metal faced insulating panels, intended for installation as elements with interlocking or overlapping longitudinal joints in the following applications:
a)   roofs (also for refurbishment);
b)   external walls and wall cladding (e.g. on brick walls for refurbishment or sandwich panels on liner trays);
c)   walls (including partitions) and ceilings within the building envelope.
It is essential that structural double skin metal faced insulating sandwich panels according to this document (FprEN 14509-2) fulfil the requirements of EN 14509.
This document (FprEN 14509-2) gives the basic rule for use of structural sandwich panels for structural applications including fixing of panels. The clarification of which application is structural needs to be given by national provisions. The stabilization parameters needed to contribute to stabilization of individual structural elements (supporting structure) as defined as structural class II according to EN 1993-1-3 are included.
The insulating core materials covered by this document are rigid polyurethane, expanded polystyrene, extruded polystyrene foam, phenolic foam, cellular glass and mineral wool. For the stabilization purposes only, the following insulation core materials are covered rigid polyurethane, mineral wool, extruded polystyrene foam and expanded polystyrene foam.
NOTE   Polyurethane (PUR) includes polyisocyanurate (PIR).
Due to durability performance reasons, only coated face material of steel faces is used (both organic and metallic coating). Uncoated steel is not used as steel face material. Uncoated stainless steel, aluminium and copper can be used in visible faces of sandwich panels.
Panels with edge details that utilize different materials from the main insulating core are included in this document if there is no influence on mechanical performance of the panel.
Panels used in cold store applications are included in this document. Panels, put on the market as a component of a cold storage room, building and/or building envelope kit are excluded.
This document does not cover the following:
-   sandwich panels with a declared thermal conductivity for the insulating core greater than defined in the relevant harmonized European Standards for insulation materials;
-   products consisting of two or more clearly defined layers of different insulating core materials (multi-layered);
-   curved panels;
-   perforated panels;
-   fixings under permanent tension load for ceilings;
-   special type of fastening such as ‘T’ support for ceiling, threaded rods with clamps for wall, omega and clamps for wall and ceiling, injected joint with flashing and threaded rods for wall and ceiling;
-   fasteners.

This part of EN 508 specifies requirements for self-supporting products for roof covering, wall cladding, lining, liner tray and tile products for discontinuous laying made from stainless steel sheets with or without additional metallic and/or organic coatings. Sheets intended to be used with insulation and membranes are also covered.
This document establishes general characteristics, definitions, classifications and labelling for the products, together with requirements for the materials from which the products can be manufactured. It is intended to be used either by manufacturers to ensure that their products comply with the requirements or by purchasers to verify that the products comply before they are dispatched from the factory. It specifies the requirements for products which enable them to meet all normal service conditions.
This document applies to all discontinuously laid self-supporting external profiled sheets for roof covering, wall cladding, lining, liner trays and tile products with the exception of tiles with a surface area less than 1 m2 and produced by stamping. These profiled roof sheets are designed to keep wind, rain and snow out of the building and to transfer any resultant loads and infrequent maintenance loads to the structure.
This document does not cover products for structural purposes, i.e. it does cover products used in structural class III (according to EN 1993-1-3), it does not cover products used in constructions of structural classes I and II (according to EN 1993-1-3) intended to contribute to the global or partial stability of the building structure by providing racking resistance or resistance to permanent static loads (excluding self-weight of the metal sheet).
No requirements for supporting construction, design of roof or cladding, lining, tile system and execution of connections and flashings are included.

This European standard specifies the performance requirements and corresponding test methods for roofing slate products of schist and schistose stone types as defined in 3.2 and 3.3 and uses for assembly into discontinuous roofing.
This European standard provides also for the evaluation of conformity and for marking of the roofing slate products.
This European standard covers als characteristics that are of importance to the trade.
This European standard does not cover roofing slate and carboante slate, for mhich EN 12326-1 and EN 12326-2 applies. It does not cover treated roofing slates, for which prEN 12326-4 applies.
This European Standard is not apllicable to bonded cladding (cladding fixed with adhesives) and cladding fixed with dowels and cramps. In these cases EN 1469 applies.
The performance of a roof or wall constructed with these products depends not only on the properties of the product as required by this document, but also on the design, construction and performance of the roof or wall as a whole in relation to the environment and conditions in use. This standard does not cover installation or construction specific requirements.

This document specifies design methods for combination of actions and spans for factory made double skin metal faced insulating sandwich panels (hereafter sandwich panels). The sandwich panels are for use in elements for both self-supporting and structural applications in roofs, in external and internal walls (including partitions) and in ceilings in buildings as well as those in cold store applications.
NOTE   The description of self-supporting sandwich panels is given in prEN 14509-1:2020, Clause 1 and for structural sandwich panels in prEN 14509-2:2020, Clause 1.

This document specifies test methods needed for determination of mechanical strength, building physical behaviour and durability of factory-made double skin metal faced insulating sandwich panels (hereafter sandwich panels) for use in elements for both self-supporting and structural applications in roofs, in external and internal walls (including partitions) and in ceilings in buildings as well as those in cold store applications.
