This standard BS EN 12730:2015 Flexible sheets for waterproofing. Bitumen, plastic and rubber sheets for roof waterproofing. Determination of resistance to static loading is classified in these ICS categories:

• 83.140.10 Films and sheets
• 91.100.50 Binders. Sealing materials
• 75.140 Waxes, bituminous materials and other petroleum products

This European Standard specifies a test for puncture by static loading for roofing membranes. Mechanical stress on membranes varies from static long-term loads to dynamic short-term loads. This method represents the static category of load where the stress is applied over a period of time.
