Overview

This European Standard specifies the characteristics and performance of thermal/acoustic insulation composite panels made of an insulating material laminated to gypsum boards for which the main intended use is the internal insulation (thermal and/or acoustic) of walls. Thermal/acoustic insulation composite panels are attached with adhesives or by mechanical fixings to vertical solid backgrounds and by mechanical fixings to wood or metal framing with the gypsum board face exposed. The method of fixing and jointing should ensure that the insulating material is not exposed in its normal application. This European Standard covers the following performance characteristics: reaction to fire, fire resistance, water vapour permeability, flexural strength, impact resistance, direct airborne sound insulation and thermal resistance. These characteristics are to be measured according to the corresponding European test methods. It also provides specifications for the assessment and verification of constancy of performance of the products complying with this European Standard. This European Standard covers also additional technical characteristics that are of importance for the use and acceptance of the product by the construction industry. This standard differs from DIN EN 13950:2006-02 as follows: a) normative references have been updated; b) the scope has been extended to include boards according to DIN EN 520, DIN EN 15283-1 and DIN EN 15283-2; c) a new subclause "Symbols, abbreviations and classification" has been introduced; d) Annex ZA and Clause 6 have been revised to be in line with the Construction Products Regulation (CPR); e) the standard has been editorially revised. The committee responsible for this standard is NA 005-09-10 AA "Gips und Gipsprodukte (SpA zu CEN/TC 241)" ("Gypsum and gypsum based products (Mirror Committee of CEN/TC 241)") at DIN.
