Fire resistance tests for loadbearing elements – Floors and roofs
| Published By | Publication Date | Number of Pages |
| BSI | 2014 | 32 |
This European Standard specifies a method for determining the fire resistance of:
-
floor constructions, without cavities or with unventilated cavities;
-
roof constructions, with or without cavities (ventilated or unventilated);
-
floor and roof constructions incorporating glazing;
with fire exposure from the underside.
This European Standard is used in conjunction with EN 1363‑1 .
