This standard 20/30404302 DC BS EN 14437. Determination of the uplift resistance of installed clay or concrete tiles for roofing. Roof system test method is classified in these ICS categories:
- 91.100.25 Terracotta building products
- 91.060.20 Roofs
- 91.100.30 Concrete and concrete products
This document specifies a test method to establish the uplift resistance of installed clay or concrete tiles for roofing, complying with the relevant product standard, EN 490 or EN 1304, which are unfixed or mechanically fixed to the substructure.
The test method has been developed for clay or concrete tiles for roofing, but can apply to other discontinuously laid small elements, such as: slates; fibre cement slates; stones; and, adopted accordingly, to photovoltaic and solar thermal panels.
The test method is applicable to mechanical fixings such as clips, hooks, screws and nails.
The method is not applicable to fixed tiles having fixing patterns with less than every third tile fixed.
The test method is not applicable to under and over tiles. Examples of these tiles are given in Annex G.
