22、l purpose use (non-structural application) and structural application in dry, humid or exterior conditions. It also gives a classification system based on the bending properties. NOTE 1 This European Standard is referenced in EN 13986 for construction applications. NOTE 2 For additional guidance on
23、application, information is provided in CEN/TS 1099. The values listed under Clause 4 relate only to product properties; they are not characteristic values and are not to be used in design calculations. NOTE 3 Characteristic values (i.e. for use in design calculation according to EN 1995-1-1) are gi
24、ven either in EN 12369-2 which is based on the classification system given in this standard or by the manufacturer based on testing according to EN 789, EN 1058 and ENV 1156. Additional information on supplementary properties for certain applications is also given. 2 Normative references The followi

The classification system may be used as an alternative to the full-scale testing as required by EN 789, for the derivation of characteristic values for plywood, by cross-referencing with EN 123
46、69-2 for the characteristic values of each class listed in Tables 1 and 2. The lower limit values given in Tables 1 and 2 for bending strength and modulus of elasticity in bending correspond to 5 percentile values based on the mean values, determined according to EN 310 and EN 326-2 for individual b
47、oards and calculated in accordance with EN 326-1. These values shall not be used for structural design.
