19、.20 DD CEN/TS 15083-1:20053 Foreword This document (CEN/TS 15083-1:2005) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 38 “Durability of wood and wood-based products”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR. This document consists of two parts. Part 1 is required to determine the natural durabi
20、lity of solid wood against wood destroying basidiomycetes fungi and Part 2 against soft rotting micro-fungi. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to announce this CEN Technical Specification: Austria, Belgium, Cy
21、prus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. DD CEN/TS 15083-1:20054 Introduction This CE
22、N Technical Specification specifies a laboratory method of test which gives a basis for the assessment of the natural durability of a sample of timber against attack by wood-destroying basidiomycetes. The natural durability of a species of timber can vary depending on the conditions of growth such a
23、s climate and soil type. For this reason, the durability established using the method described in this document will relate only to the sample of timber tested. Guidance on sampling is given in Annex A. This laboratory method provides one criterion by which the durability of the timber can be asses
24、sed. It is recommended that this information be supplemented by data from other relevant tests, for example CEN/TS 15083-2, and above all by practical experience. The procedures described in this standard method are intended to be carried out by suitably trained and/or supervised specialists. DD CEN
25、/TS 15083-1:20055 1 Scope This CEN Technical Specification specifies a method of test for determining the natural durability of a timber against wood-destroying basidiomycetes cultured on an agar medium. The method is applicable to all timber species. NOTE This method may be used in conjunction with
26、 an ageing procedure, for example EN 73 or EN 84. 2 Normative reference The following referenced document is indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any
27、amendments) applies. EN ISO 3696, Water for analytical laboratory use Specification and test methods (ISO 3696:1987) 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1 supplier sponsor of the test (person or company providing the sample of timbe
28、r to be tested) 4 Principle Test specimens prepared from the timber under test and reference timber test specimens are exposed to attack by pure cultures of wood-destroying basidiomycete fungi. After a prescribed period of incubation under defined conditions, the percentage loss in dry mass of the t
29、est specimens is used to estimate the resistance of the test timber to attack by the test fungi and as the basis of a provisional durability rating. 5 Test materials and apparatus 5.1 Biological material 5.1.1 Test fungi The test fungi to be used are as follows. 5.1.1.1 Obligatory fungus in all case
30、s: Coniophora puteana (Schumacher ex Fries) Karsten (BAM Ebw. 15). Loss in mass of Scots pine sapwood in 16 weeks: minimum 30 %. Loss in mass of beech in 16 weeks: minimum 30 %. DD CEN/TS 15083-1:20056 5.1.1.2 Obligatory fungi for particular timbers: Poria placenta (Fries) Cooke sensu J. Eriksson (F
31、PRL 280) for soft woods. Loss in mass of Scots pine sapwood in 16 weeks: minimum 20 %. Coriolus versicolor (Linnaeus) Qulet (CTB 863A) for hardwoods. Loss in mass of beech in 16 weeks: minimum 20 %. 5.1.1.3 Maintenance of strains The strains shall be maintained and treated (frequency of subculturing
32、, alternation of culture media, etc.) in accordance with the instructions of their laboratory of origin (see B.2). The parent strain shall be maintained in the laboratory of its origin so as to conserve and to assure its vigour. NOTE If tests are not undertaken regularly or if a strain shows signs o
33、f degeneration a new standard culture of the strain should be obtained from the laboratory of its origin for each test (see B.2). When new strains are received, the virulence shall be tested to ensure the strain can achieve the minimum loss in mass (see 5.1.1.1 and 5.1.1.2). 5.1.2 Reference timbers
34、5.1.2.1 Species used for the tests: Scots pine sapwood (Pinus sylvestris Linnaeus) for tests with softwoods; beech (Fagus sylvatica Linnaeus) for tests with hardwoods. 5.1.2.2 Wood quality The wood shall be free from cracks, stain, decay, insect damage or other defects. The wood shall not have been
35、water-stored, floated, chemically treated or steamed. NOTE Wood that has been kiln dried at temperatures below 60 C can be used. The Scots pine shall be exclusively sapwood containing little resin and having between 2,5 and 8 annual growth rings per 10 mm. The proportion of latewood in the annual ri
36、ngs shall not exceed 30 % of the whole. The beech shall be even-grained, free from tyloses and discolouration. It shall have between 2 and 6 annual growth rings per 10 mm. 5.1.2.3 Provision of reference timber test specimens Prepare planed strips having a cross-section of (25 0,5) mm x (15 0,5) mm.
37、The longitudinal faces shall be parallel to the direction of the grain. The annual rings shall not be parallel to the broad faces (contact angle to be greater than 5) but otherwise may run in any direction. Make transverse cuts, neatly to give sharp edges and a fine-sawn finish to the end-grain surf
38、aces, to give reference timber test specimens (50 0,5) mm long. The test specimens shall originate from a minimum of three trees or shall be taken from a stock originally of more than 500 test specimens and originating from at least five planks. 5.1.2.4 Dimensions and density of reference timber tes
39、t specimens The dimensions of each reference timber test specimen at a mass fraction of (12 2) % moisture content shall be (50 0,5) x (25 0,5) mm x (15 0,5) mm. DD CEN/TS 15083-1:20057 NOTE A moisture meter of the two-pronged electrical conductivity type is suitable for assessing moisture content. I
40、n a batch of test specimens, the density of an individual is permitted to differ from the mean value of the batch by 10 %. 5.1.2.5 Number and distribution of reference timber test specimens Use at least 10 reference timber test specimens for each test fungus. Mark each test specimen so that it can b
41、e identified throughout the test. 5.2 Products and reagents 5.2.1 Culture medium The culture medium shall be a malt agar medium with the following composition: malt extract: in concentrated form: (50 0,5) g; in powder form: (40 0,5) g. agar causing no inhibition of growth of fungi: (20 0,5) g to (30
42、 0,5) g. water conforming to grade 3 of EN ISO 3696: quantity to make up to 1 000 ml. Prepare this medium by warming the mixture in a boiling water bath or steam bath, stirring until completely dissolved. Place in each culture vessel (5.3.1) a sufficient quantity of the medium to provide a minimum d
43、epth of 3 mm to 4 mm when in its in-use position. Close the vessels as specified in 5.3.1 and sterilize in an autoclave at 121 C for 20 min. Let the vessels cool in their in-use position. 5.3 Apparatus 5.3.1 Culture vessels, Kolle flasks or equivalent vessels with a capacity of between 400 ml and 65
44、0 ml providing a flat surface area of between 85 cm and 120 cm for the medium. NOTE 1 Examples of suitable vessels are given in EN 113. NOTE 2 Kolle flasks are usually plugged with a wad of cotton wool. Other culture vessels are usually fitted with leakproof lids, the centres of which are pierced wi
45、th a round hole of up to 15 mm diameter and plugged with a wad of cotton wool. 5.3.2 Drying oven, capable of being controlled at (103 2) C. 5.3.3 Desiccators, with efficient desiccant (silica gel for example). 5.3.4 Conditioning chamber, well ventilated and controlled at (20 2) C and (65 5) % relati
