DIN EN 15998:2011-02 EN 15998:2010 (E) 4 Introduction According to mandat
20、e M/135 “Glass in building“, one of the essential characteristics that may be claimed is Safety in case of fire Resistance to fire (for glass for use in a glazed assembly intended specifically for fire resistance). However, glass products cannot be tested and classified for fire resistance without b
21、eing incorporated into a fire resistant glazed assembly. DIN EN 15998:2011-02 EN 15998:2010 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the testing methodology to be used for glass products that are claiming fire resistance. The methodology covers Initial Type Testing as defined in the relevant g
22、lass product standard. NOTE This document provides guidance with the declaration of the characteristic, Safety in case of fire Resistance to fire (for glass for use in a glazed assembly intended specifically for fire resistance) for the CE marking. The same methodology can also be used to determine
23、the performance classification for market applications (see Annex B). The methodology covers all glass product types that may require testing and classification for fire resistance. Fire resistance testing covers end use applications for example: doors; partitions, walls (including curtain walling);
24、 floors, roofs; ceilings. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies.

31、ance with EN 13501-2 3.3 fire performance classification result of a fire resistance test(s) expressed as required in EN 13501-2 NOTE 1 The classification is reported with respect to integrity (E), integrity and radiation (EW), integrity and insulation (EI), and loadbearing capacity and integrity (R
32、E) and loadbearing capacity, integrity an insulation (REI). NOTE 2 The classification of a specific glass product will be one or more of E, EW, EI, RE, REI NOTE 3 The time obtained for different classifications may be different, e.g. EW 30, EI 20. 3.4 framing system frame profile and fixings to the

39、erred to is the applicable “Evaluation of conformity/product standard” for the glass product under consideration, e.g. EN 1279-5; EN 12150-2; EN 13024-2; EN 14449. 3.10 reference test fire resistance test in accordance with the appropriate standard (see 4.3), on which the extended application is bas
40、ed and the results of which are used as the main source of data for the extended application NOTE 1 This test may also be used as the initial type test to support CE marking of fire-resistant glass or as a market application test. In each case, Annex ZA of the product standard should be considered:
41、e.g. involvement of a Notified Certification Body, sample traceability, product sampling (when necessary) and checks of the factory production control. NOTE 2 The reference test provides the main source of data to determine the following: performance rating (integrity, integrity with radiation or in
42、tegrity with insulation); maximum pane area and dimensions for the fire-resistant glass; maximum dimensions of the fire-resistant glazed element for each type of frame material. NOTE 3 The reference test may also provide other data to assist in determining, through EXAP rules, the following: permitt
43、ed dimensional changes to the framing system; any changes to the glazing system.

44、definition comes from an “Evaluation of conformity/product standard”. 3.12 technical file document, produced and maintained by the manufacturer, that contains all relevant information dealing with product traceability/testing/manufacture, etc. 3.13 virtual assembly glazed assembly that is defined by
45、 the glass manufacturer for the Initial Type Testing of the characteristic “Safety in case of fire Resistance to fire (for glass for use in a glazed assembly intended specifically for fire resistance)“ NOTE 1 The acceptable components and the scope of application for the “Virtual Assembly“ are those
46、 defined by the relevant classification report. NOTE 2 Classification is in accordance with EN 13501-2 and based upon: a) fire resistance test(s) for direct application; or b) for extended application according to EXAP rules. 4 Principles 4.1 General According to EN 357:2004, 5.1, the fire resistanc
47、e classification shall be related to the complete glazed element which incorporates the glass products and all given dimensions and tolerances. Therefore the principle is established that the glass shall be fitted into a framing system, complete with seals and mounting and fixing arrangements. There
48、fore as a consequence the glass cannot be classified on its own. The classification relates to a complete glazed assembly. The glazed assembly is tested in accordance with the applicable test method (see 4.3). The determination of the fire resistance classification is primarily undertaken for two se
49、parate reasons: determination of the fire resistance performance of the glass product as one of its characteristics for regulatory marking (see 4.2); determination of the fire resistance performance of a glazed assembly for specific market applications (see Annex B). NOTE A test may satisfy both of the above items. 4.2 Testing to determine fire resistance as a product characteristic for a glass According to any of the “E
