29、ce situations in which wood is susceptible to biological attack have been divided into five hazard classes which are defined in EN 335-1 (see table B.l). Guidance on the application of these hazard classes to solid wood is given in EN 335-2. Page 3 EN 460 : 1994 5 Durability classes Classification s

30、ystems for the natural durability of solid wood based on resistance to attack by various wood-destroying organisms are given in EN 350- 1. 6 Durability for use in the various hazard classes 6.1 General The natural durability of a wood species should be considered separately for each wood-destroying

31、organism. In practice supplies of sawn timber may include sapwood as well as heartwood. If the proportion of sapwood present is such that its loss would have adverse implications for the performance of the component, or if the sapwood and heartwood cannot be distinguished, the durability of the whol

32、e component should be regarded as equivalent to that of the sapwood. In addition to the natural durability, there are other factors that influence performance which should also be taken into consideration in the selection of a wood species and the decision whether or not it should be treated with a

33、preservative. For example wood with low permeability may acquire lower moisture contents under intermittent wetting conditions, compared to more permeable species, and will therefore have a reduced risk of fungal attack under such service conditions. An indication of propensity to take up moisture m

34、ay be obtained from the treatability classification of different wood species (see EN 350-2). Hence timbers having a particular natural durability classification for wood-destroying fungi and with a treatability classification of 3 or 4 may achieve an increased service life in out of ground contact

35、conditions (hazard class 2 or hazard class 3) compared to wood of similar durability classification but with a treatability classification of 1 or 2. Information on some further factors is given in annex A. 6.2 Natural durability to wood-destroying fungi Guidance on the use of a wood species in the

36、various hazard classes depending upon their degree of natural durability is given in table 1. If the natural durability is inadequate, preservative treatment should be considered.

Reference should be made to local or regional expertise for advice on

40、 the risk of attack by wood-destroying beetles. In situations where there is a significant risk of attack which would result in an unacceptable loss of strength or visual degradation, wood species classified as susceptible in EN 350-2 should be treated with a preservative. 6.4 Natural durability to

41、termites In situations where there is a significant risk of termite attack only the heartwood of wood species which is classified in EN 350-2 as durable (D) or moderately durable (M) to termites may be used untreated. The choice between durable (D) and moderately durable (M) wood depends upon the sp

42、ecific requirements, for example for funct,ion, end use, expected service life, and the significance of failure. 6.5 Natural durability to marine organisms In situations where there is a significant, risk of attack by marine organisms, only the heartwood of wood species which is classified in EN 350

43、-2 as durable (D) or moderately durable (M) to marine organisms may be used untreated. The choice between durable (D) and moderately durable (M) wood depends upon the specific requirements, for example for function, end use, expected service life, and the significance of failure.

44、4589 00b5297 452 W Annex A (informative) Important factors in the relationship between expected service life and natural durability A.l Service life The service life of a timber component will depend upon many factors, not just durability classification against wood-destroying organisms. For instanc

45、e, in hazard class 3 the design details of a timber component, which prevent water penetration and collection and encourage drainage and ventilation, together with local climatic conditions and maintenance procedures, may have an influence on long-term performance. Similarly, in hazard class 4 clima

46、tic conditions can have a marked effect on performance. Therefore, it is not appropriate to base an expected service life solely upon the durability classification. For most constructional uses there is a generally accepted minimum level of natural durability, which in conjunction with the other fac

47、tors gives a service life considered reasonable for a given component. The selection of a wood with a higher durability classification than that recommended in this standard may be expected to provide an increased service life for a given end-use. If constructional components are required to have on

48、ly a short service life (temporary or semi permanent) or if extreme longevity is necessary, it may be appropriate to use wood species with lower or higher durability classifications than those given in table 1. An estimate of expected service life may be obtained by comparing the durability of the w

49、ood which is proposed for use with the known durability and service life of other well known wood species that have been used in the same location and for constructions with similar design and maintenance details. Where fungal attack occurs on lateral surfaces, the service life of a timber component can be expected to increase in proportion to its thickness. For example, a stake of cross-section 50 mm x 50 mm, embedded in the ground can be expected to have a service life approximately twice that of a stake of the same durability classi
