A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Complia
6、nce with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Further information Users of this standard are informed that the UK submitted a vote of disapproval on the final voting stage of the draft EN for the following reasons: 1) The Standard does not indicate how to rel
7、ate the results of testing to the wind load classifications given in EN 12424. 2) EN 12424 identifies wind load classes under which no permanent deformation of the door or its components that could influence the function and safety performance of the door is permitted. Beyond that point, the door is
8、 required to stay in place, even permanently distorted, under an additional 25% wind load above the classification load. EN 12444 does not indicate how to verify conformity to this requirement. 3) EN 12444 does not indicate how to apply the safety factors given in EN 12604 to cover the transfer of t
9、est results or calculated results (which have different factors) into classifications. 4) The wording of 9.2.2 is not clear and attempts are being made to have the clause rewritten as follows: “When the product is exposed to wind pressures up to a required classification level, the seals between mov
10、ing parts, such as those located on the perimeters of door panels, may be breached. Where this occurs, seals shall not be physically damaged to prevent compliance with achieved classifications for other characteristics such as air permeability, water penetration or thermal resistance.” 5) The issues
11、 outlined in 1, 2 and 3 are being considered in the course of the preparation of the product standard, EN 13241 to which reference should be made. 6) The UK mirror committee (B/538/5) is continuing to apply for amendments to EN 12444 to deal with all the issues outlined.

25、 03-2001 Introduction The objective of strength tests and calculations according to this standard is to assess that the strength of the door assembly is sufficient to fulfil the essential requirements in the directives, to ensure that the products remain safe independent of their conditions. Tests a
26、nd/or calculations may be performed by the manufacturer and/or approved laboratory. 1 Scope 1.1 General This European Standard specifies the test method and/or calculation of resistance to wind load for doors in a closed position. The doors are intended for installation in areas in the reach of peop
27、le, for which the main intended uses are giving safe access for goods, vehicles and persons in industrial, commercial or residential premises. The doors may be manually or power operated. This document applies to all doors provided in accordance with prEN 13241:1998. 1.2 Exclusions This document doe
28、s not apply to: - lock gates and dock gates; - doors on lifts; - doors on vehicles; - armoured doors; - doors mainly for the retention of animals; - theatre textile curtains; - horizontally moving doors less than 2,5 m wide and 6,25 m 2area, designed principally for pedestrian use; - revolving doors
29、 of any size; - doors outside the reach of people (such as crane gantry fences); - railway barriers; - barriers used solely for vehicles.Page 4 EN 12444:2000 BSI 03-2001 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates, by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications.

34、o determine failure. Full size specimen shall be tested. If it is impossible or uneconomical to achieve full-scale testing, parts of door assemblies (elements E) shall be tested for calculating a result for a full door calculation. Whether testing full door assemblies or elements of doors, the maxim
35、um height/width dimension which is critical to the wind load resistance (e.g. width for vertically operating doors) shall be tested for each design criterion. In order to provide information for the extrapolation of results for smaller sizes, at least one additional test shall be completed on an alt
36、ernative dimension for each design criterion.Page 5 EN 12444:2000 BSI 03-2001 5 Apparatus A surround for the test specimen or elements shall be prepared; it shall be able to withstand the pressures applied during the test without deflecting to an extent likely to impair jointing or to impose bending
37、 stresses that might affect the performances of test specimen. 6 Preparation of test specimen or elements (E) 6.1 The test specimen or elements shall be installed in the test position as advised by the manufacturer, taking into account the frame tracks and any wind resisting devices. 6.2 The test sp
38、ecimen or elements shall consist of parts that in detail conform to the production level of quality. Whenever possible the test specimen should be newly made. Doors and parts in stock are to be regarded as newly made if they fully comply with the specification of the running production. 7 Test proce
39、dure 7.1 Testing of complete doors 7.1.1 Loads applied to the sample should be in accordance with annex B to give the classification as noted in Table 1 from EN 12424:2000. 7.1.2 An evenly distributed load or pressure may be applied to the surface. This can be achieved in various ways, for example,
40、but not restricted to: a) air-pressurized chamber, in which case steps shall be taken to eliminate all air leakage on the product and its attachment to the supporting construction; b) bags filled with sand or water distributed over the surface of the test sample, see annex B; c) air-pressurized bags
41、 applied across the whole surface between a fixed rigid surface, for example the floor and the surface of the test sample. 7.2 Testing of individual or collective elements 7.2.1 Uniformly distributed loads shall be applied in the same manner as described in 7.1.2 in gradual steps and the effect upon
42、 deflection of the product, permanent distortion, engagement within the door frame and ultimate failure shall be recorded after removing the loading when considered necessary (see annex A). The original sub-assembly mass and self-deflection shall be taken into account. NOTE: For elements which conta
43、in only completely homogenous material a central point loading may be used as an alternative to uniformly distributed loading. 7.2.2 To calculate the resistance for the whole door assembly, according to the example in annex A the strength of components may be individually tested for failure by apply
44、ing a load in the same direction as will result from an applied wind load. NOTE: The whole door may contain elements incorporating features such as windows or pass doors. 7.2.3 To ensure that production methods and material consistency will not adversely affect the results, the test result shall con
45、tain a safety factor according to EN 12604.Page 6 EN 12444:2000 BSI 03-2001 8 Calculation 8.1 Calculations shall be done in accordance with normal engineering practice. Calculations can be performed by using parameters which have been determined by preliminary tests on defined elements, such as fini
46、te-element methods. Annex A describes such a simplified method. 8.1.1 Calculations shall be carried out to verify that the largest size of product to be manufactured is capable of withstanding the highest load (differential pressure) within the classification group according to EN 12424:2000 that th
47、e product is to perform. 8.1.2 It is not a requirement of this standard that every assembly that is produced shall have a set of calculations produced to suit. It is expected that factory control procedures and design control procedures will ensure consistent product quality and performance. 8.2 The
48、 structural opening size and area shall be used to determine the load to be applied. 8.3 When strength calculations are carried out on fixings and/or location features between a door and frame, the number of such features on a door assembly shall share the load, with an included safety factor in accordance with EN 12604. 9 Failure criteria 9.1 Full-scale tests, calculations, indicative testing shall all show that materials are not subjected to such loads that would cause the prod
