It specifies requirements for standard and flame-retardant laminates intended for use under outdoor weather conditions such as direct sunlight rain and frost. Two levels of performance are specified; one for moderate exterior conditions, and the other for severe exterior conditions.<\/p>\n<p>Laminates complying with this European Standard are referred to as Exterior-grade Compact laminates, and are characterized by their high tensile strength, high impact resistance, thermal shock resistance, and resistance to weather and corrosion. They are available in a variety of decorative colours, with high resistance to colour change and aging in outdoor applications. When they are self-supporting Exterior-grade Compact laminates are ready for installation, and only require cutting to size, drilling, etc. to suit the application. <span class=\"std\"> <span class=\"std-ref\">EN&nbsp;438\u20112<\/span> <\/span> specifies the methods of test relevant to this part of <span class=\"std\"> <span class=\"std-ref\">EN&nbsp;438<\/span> <\/span>.<\/p>\n<h4>PDF Catalog<\/h4>\n<table border=\"1px\" class=\"des-table\">\n<tr>\n<th>PDF Pages<\/th>\n<th>PDF Title<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><b>5<b><\/td>\n<td>European foreword  <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><b>6<b><\/td>\n<td>1 Scope <br \/> 2 Normative references <br \/> 3 Terms, definitions, symbols and abbreviations <br \/> 3.1 Terms and definitions  <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><b>7<b><\/td>\n<td>3.2 Symbols <br \/> 4 Material types and classification system <br \/> Table 1 \u2014 Classification system <br \/> 5 Requirements <br \/> 5.1 Compliance <br \/> 5.2 Inspection requirements <br \/> 5.2.1 General  <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><b>8<b><\/td>\n<td>5.2.2 Colour and pattern <br \/> 5.2.3 Surface finish <br \/> 5.2.4 Visual inspection <br \/> 5.2.4.1 General <br \/> 5.2.4.2 Surface quality  <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><b>9<b><\/td>\n<td>5.2.4.3 Edge quality <br \/> 5.3 Dimensional tolerance requirements <br \/> Table 2 \u2014 Dimensional tolerance requirements <br \/> 5.4 Test requirements <br \/> 5.4.1 Physical property requirements  <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><b>10<b><\/td>\n<td>Table 3 \u2014 Physical property requirements <br \/> 5.4.2 Weather resistance requirements  <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><b>11<b><\/td>\n<td>Table 4 \u2014 Weather resistance requirements <br \/> 5.4.3 Notes on requirements for reaction to fire  <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><b>12<b><\/td>\n<td>Annex A  (informative)  Addendum to sub-clause 5.4.3, relating to fire performance <br \/> Table A.1 \u2014 Typical EN 13501-1 classifications of Exterior-grade Compact laminates in the field of building construction  <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><b>13<b><\/td>\n<td>Bibliography  <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><b>High-pressure decorative laminates (HPL).
