EN 12089Thermal insulating products for building applications. Determination of bending behaviour
Thermal insulating materials, Bend testing, Construction materials, Loading, Deflection tests, Mechanical testing, Testing conditions, Test equipment, Test specimens, Reports, Accuracy, Reproducibility.
This European Standard specifies the equipment and procedures for determining the bending behavior of full size products (method A) and test specimens (method B) under the action of three-point loading. It is applicable to thermal insulating products used in building applications.
The test is designed to determine the bending strength of products and their deflection at a given load. The method can be used to determine the resistance of the product to bending stresses during transport and application.
