19、oduction LVL is covered by two standards: EN 14374 and EN 14279 (this document), prepared under Mandates M/112 and M/113 respectively. In the field of application of Mandate M/112 “Structural timber products and ancillaries“, LVL is a material used for manufacturing structural products. In the field
20、 of application of Mandate M/113 “Wood-based panels“, LVL is a product. The fields of application are to some extent overlapping. In some cases, the standard to be used is specified in the design standards, in other cases it is up to the user to specify the standard to be used. For relationship with
21、 Council Directive 89/106/EEC, EN 14374:2004 has its own Annex ZA. EN 14279 applies to LVL products for general purposes as well as to LVL products for use in construction, for relationship with Council Directive 89/106/EEC, refer to Annex ZA of EN 13986:2004. This document has been prepared in conc
22、ert with CEN/TC 124. Consequently, some parts are common with EN 14374, e.g. some definitions and general specifications.

37、 listed in Table 1 when dispatched from the production factory. The requirements in Table 1 shall be met by the mean or percentile value given, calculated in accordance with EN 326-1. The bending properties according to Table 1 are used for quality control purposes only and shall not be used in desi
38、gn calculations. For structural applications, the characteristic values of mechanical properties shall be determined according to EN 1058 from EN 789 test results or EN 408 or methods referred to EN 14374. NOTE If it is made known by the purchaser that the boards are intended for specific use in flo
39、oring, walls or roofing, the performance standard EN 12871 also should be considered. This might result a need for compliance with additional requirements.

43、e in construction, refer to EN 13986. For use in non constructional applications, the following applies: LVL shall be tested and classified into either class E 1 or E 2. NOTE 1 In certain countries only products of the formaldehyde class E1 may be placed on the market (see the database “Legislation
44、on substances in construction products” http:/europa.eu.int/comm/enterprise/construction/internal/dangsub/dangmain.htm, for further information). The test requirements for both initial type testing and factory production control/continuous surveillance are laid down in Table 2 for E1 products and Ta
45、ble 3 for E2 products. NOTE 2 Boards of class E1 can be used without causing an indoor air concentration greater than 0,1 10-6(ppm) HCHO in conditions according to EN 717-1. The test requirement does not apply to LVL which has not had formaldehyde containing materials added during production or in p
46、ost-production processing. These may be classified E1 without testing. NOTE 3 Example of such LVL (coated or uncoated) are those glued with resins emitting either no formaldehyde or negligible amounts of formaldehyde after production as e.g. isocyanate, or phenolic glue. NOTE 4 The limit values for
47、the class E1 are given in Table 2 and for class E2 are given in Table 3.
