Foreword
This document (prEN 15269-2:2009) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 127 “Fire
safety in buildings”, the secretariat of which is held by BSI.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and
the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of 89/106/EEC.
Introduction
This document is one of a series of standards listed below and intended to be used for the purpose of
producing an extended application report based on the evaluation of one or more fire resistance
and/or smoke control tests. These standards may also be used to identify the best selection of test
specimens required to cover a wide range of product variations.
The prEN 15269 series of standards currently consists of:
prEN 15269, Extended application of test results for fire resistance and/or smoke control for door,
shutter and openable window assemblies, including their elements of building hardware
Part 1: General requirements
Part 2: Fire resistance of hinged and pivoted steel doorsets
Part 3: Fire resistance of hinged and pivoted timber doorsets and openable timber framed windows
Part 4: Fire resistance of hinged and pivoted glass doorsets
Part 5: Fire resistance of hinged and pivoted, metal framed, glazed doorsets and openable windows
Part 6: Fire resistance of sliding timber doorsets
Part 7: Fire resistance of sliding steel doorsets
Part 8: Fire resistance of horizontally folding timber doorsets
Part 9: Fire resistance of horizontally folding steel doorsets
Part 10: Fire resistance of steel rolling shutters
Part 11: Fire resistance of fabric curtains
Part 20: Smoke control for hinged and pivoted timber and steel doorsets
Before there can be any consideration for extended application the doorset should have been tested
in accordance with EN 1634-1 to achieve a test result which could generate a classification in
accordance with EN 13501-2 at least equal to the classification subsequently required from extended
application considerations.
A review of the doorset construction parameters can indicate that one or more characteristics may be
improved by a particular parameter variation. All evaluations should be made on the basis of retaining
the fire resistance classifications obtainable from testing to EN 1634-1, including those lower than the
test duration. However, this should never lead to an increased classification for any specific fire
performance parameter beyond that achieved during any one test unless specifically identified in the
relevant Construction Parameter Variation tables within this series of standards.
The effect on the durability of self closing of the doorsets following an extended application process is
not addressed in this series of standards.
1 Scope
This Part of prEN 15269, which should be read in conjunction with prEN 15269-1, covers single and
double leaf, hinged and pivoted, steel based doorsets.
This document prescribes the methodology for extending the application of test results obtained from
test(s) conducted in accordance with EN 1634-1.
Subject to the completion of the appropriate test or tests selected from those identified in Clause 4 the
extended application may cover all or some of the following non-exhaustive list:
 Integrity only (E), radiation (EW) or insulated (EI or EI ) classifications;
1 2
 door leaf;
 wall/ceiling fixed elements (frame/suspension system;
 glazing for door leaf;
 items of building hardware;
 decorative finishes;
 intumescent, smoke, draught or acoustic seals;
 alternative supporting construction(s).

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this Part or EN 15269, the terms and definitions given in EN1363-1, EN ISO
13943, EN 1634-1, prEN 1634-2 and prEN 15269-1 together with the following apply:
3.1 full scale test
test of a full size doorset in accordance with EN 1634-1
3.2 small scale test
test on elements of building hardware in accordance with prEN 1634-2 and where the decision
process, given in prEN 1634-2, permits its use. This is abbreviated as SS in annex C
3.3 effective rebate depth
dimension of the door leaf thickness of overlapping adjacent edges of door leaf relative to the door
frame, transom or side panel or flush overpanel. At the meeting edges and for rebated leaves the
dimension shall be the depth of the largest rebate or the rebate where the intumescent seal is fitted
3.4 panel
component of a door leaf separated from other elements by joints which break through the total door
thickness. A door leaf can consist of one or more panels.
4 Determination of the field of extended application
4.1 General
4.1.1 Before there can be any consideration for extended application, the doorset must have been
tested and classified in accordance with EN1634-1 and EN 13501-2 respectively in order to establish
a classification for the doorset.
4.1.2 A review of the doorset construction parameters can indicate that one or more characteristics
may be improved by a particular parameter variation. All evaluations shall be made on the basis of
retaining the classifications obtainable from testing to EN1634-1, including those lower than the test
duration. However, this shall never lead to an increased classification for any specific parameter
beyond that achieved during any one test unless specifically identified in the relevant Construction
Parameter Variation tables.
4.1.3 All evaluations shall be made on the basis of retaining the classification obtained from testing
to EN1634-1.
4.1.4 If, by following the ensuing procedure, any part of the classification cannot be achieved by
extended application rules, that part of classification shall be omitted from the subsequent extended
application report and classification report.
4.2 Procedure for evaluation
4.2.1 Identify the variations from the original test specimen(s) which are required to be covered by
an extended application report.
4.2.2 Locate the variations in the appropriate parameter variation by reference to columns (1) and
(2) of Annex A.
4.2.3 Review the type of classification to be retained from column (3) and establish from the
contents of column (4) whether any extended application is available beyond the direct application
rules in EN 1634-1 without the need for further testing.
4.2.4 Where this is deemed to be possible this can be recorded in the extended application report
together with any appropriate restrictions and the stated rules from column (4).
4.2.5 Where the variations required can only be achieved from additional testing according to
column (5), the additional test can be made on a similar specimen type to the original test against
which the extended application is sought. Alternatively, column (5) identifies an option for alternative
testing and relevant test parameters.
4.3 Procedure for maximum field of extended application
4.3.1 It is possible to provide a limited field extended of application from the results of a single test.
However, where a manufacturer intends to produce a range of doors incorporating single doors and
also double doors, with or without glazing, with alternative elements of building hardware, etc., it is
recommended that careful consideration is given to the complete range of doorset designs and
options in order to minimise the testing required before testing commences.
4.3.2 Establish all the parameter variations which are required to be part of the product range.
4.3.3 Select specimen(s) for the first test(s) in the series to ensure that those required for the
manufactured products are covered.
4.3.4 Complete the first test or a series of tests and prepare a field of direct application and possibly
a classification report from the results of the test(s).
4.3.5 Establish which of the original desired parameter variations have not been covered by the
direct application classification report.
4.3.6 Identify these parameter variations in Annex A and establish if any extended application is
possible without further testing.
4.3.7 Record this for the extended application report together with any restrictions and rules given
in column (5).
4.3.8 Evaluate which, if any, of the desired parameter variations have not been covered by the field
of direct application or the initial field of extended application derived from 4.3.7. above.
4.3.9 Select the required outstanding parameter variations from column (1) and column (2) of
Annex A and observe from column (5) which are the most appropriate weakest specimen options for
further testing.
4.3.10 If the complete selection of required parameter variations have not been covered by the tests
completed in accordance with 4.3.9 above, then an appropriate test or tests may be repeated with the
additional product variations incorporated.
4.4 Interpretation of test results
4.4.1 In order to maximise the field of extended application, it is important that the test reports shall
record details of any integrity and/or insulation failures throughout the test duration.
4.4.2 Where a series of tests have been conducted, the field of extended application shall be based
on the lowest performance achieved from the complete series of tests unless premature failure has
been attributed to one or more specific construction parameter variations.
4.4.3 Where it has been possible, to identify specific parameter failures, the extended application
for all other construction parameter variations can be based on the performance achieved after
isolating the premature failure(s).
5 Extended application report
Prepare an extended application report in accordance with the requirements of Clause 6 of prEN
15269-1, based on the results of evaluations in accordance with the above.
6 Classification report
The classification report shall be determined from the results of the extended application report and
shall be presented in accordance with Annex A of EN 13501-2.

Annex A
(normative)
Construction Parameter Variations
Table A.1 is designed to provide rules for the creation of extended application reports by experts in
the field of fire resistance testing of hinged and pivoted steel doorsets.
Table A.1 shall only be used to evaluate a field of extended application when at least one positive fire
resistance test to EN 1634-1 has resulted in a classification according to EN 13501-2.
The first two columns of Table A.1 identify possible variations to the construction details of the specimen tested.
The type of classification achieved from the test can be identified from the ‘Performance characteristic’ section of
Table A.1 column 3 as insulation, radiation control or integrity only. For some parameters, it is necessary to
evaluate whether the specimen displayed a high, medium or low level of distortion during the test. Where this is
the case the following levels shall be used to provide high, medium and low distortion doorsets:
 low < 40 % of effective rebate depth,
 medium > 40 % and < 85 % of effective rebate depth,
 high > 85 % of effective rebate depth.
The effect of the change in each parameter is evaluated for each characteristic in column 3 under E for effects on
integrity, I for effects on insulation (whether an I or I ) and W for the effects on radiation.
1 2
Where symbols are used these relate to the following definitions:
a) < - forecast is a worse performance;
b) > - forecast is a better performance;
c) = - forecast is no significant difference
d) ≤ - forecast is a worse or equal performance;
e) ≥ - forecast is a better or equal performance;
f) >=< - forecast unknown
These evaluations lead to the judgement of the possibility of extending the field of application, the results of
which are given in column 4 of Table A.1. In certain cases in Column 4 it is a requirement to achieve Category B,
the requirements for which are given in EN 1634-1.
Where additional tests are deemed to be necessary the type of specimen approved for incorporation
of the changed parameter is defined in column 5. Where it is possible to use information from tests
performed on one configuration for evidence on a different configuration, this allowance has been
made in order to reduce the overall number of tests required for extended application evaluation e.g.
single action doorsets to double action doorsets.
In order to maximise the possible field of application from a minimum number of tests, the parameter
changes can be spread over a series of test specimens. The recommended test for each parameter is
dependant upon the classification required and the preferred direction of testing as indicated in
Column 5.
If after consideration of a specific variation, additional changes are required to be made to the
specimen, these may be made providing the implications on other variations are also taken into
account.
