EN 13501-2 is a European Standard that specifies the fire classification of construction products and building elements, excluding cable management systems. The standard is part of a series of European Standards for fire classification, which aims to provide a common framework for evaluating the fire performance of construction products and building elements. en 135012 pdf free download fixed
Radiation measures the ability of the element to reduce the transmission of radiant heat through it to the unexposed side. 5. Mechanical Action (M) Radiation measures the ability of the element to
The ability of the element to prevent heat transfer, protecting the non-heated side from high temperatures. The EN 13501-2 standard provides the framework for
The EN 13501-2 standard provides the framework for classifying data from fire resistance and smoke leakage tests on building elements. This classification is vital for determining how components like walls, floors, doors, and barriers behave when exposed to fire. Key Performance Criteria
How long an element prevents the passage of flames and hot gases.
This is the backbone of European fire safety engineering. It takes raw test data from tests like:
