This European Standard specifies the technical requirements and establishes methods of inspection and test as well as acceptance conditions for fibre-cement flat sheets, siding shingles and planks (referred to as sheets later in this document) for one or more of the following uses:<\/p>\n
internal wall and ceiling finishes;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
external wall and ceiling finishes.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Products covered by this European Standard can be used for other purposes provided they comply with the relevant application standard, e.g. rigid underlays.<\/p>\n
This European Standard covers sheets reinforced with fibres of different types as specified in 5.1.1.<\/p>\n
This European Standard does not cover sheets for fire protection purposes.<\/p>\n
This European Standard does not include calculations with regard to works, design requirements, installation techniques, wind uplift or rain proofing of the installed sheets.<\/p>\n
