DIN EN 13823:2010-12

This European Standard describes a test method for determining the reaction to fire performance of construction products excluding floorings, and excluding products which are indicated in Table 1 of EC Decision 2000/147/EC, when exposed to thermal attack by a single burning item (SBI). The calculation and calibration procedures, together with information on the precision of the test method, are also dealt with. This European Standard has been prepared to determine the reaction to fire performance of essentially flat products. The treatment of some families of products, for example, pipes, ducts, cables, and so on, may require special rules. This European Standard has been prepared by CEN/TC 127 "Fire safety in buildings". At DIN, the Working Committee responsible for this standard is NA 005-52-01 AA "Brandverhalten von Baustoffen und Bauteilen - Baustoffe" ("Fire behaviour of building materials and building components - Building materials") of NABau.
