Fire classification of construction products and building elements - Part 2: Classification using data from fire resistance tests, excluding ventilation services
This standard specifies the procedure for classification of construction products and element families using data from fire resistance tests which are within the field of application of the relevant test method. Classification on the basis of extended application is not within the scope of this Standard.
Klassifizierung von Bauprodukten und Bauarten zu ihrem Brandverhalten - Teil 2: Klassifizierung mit den Ergebnissen aus den Feuerwiderstandsprüfungen, mit Ausnahme von Lüftungsanlagen
Dieser Teil dieser Europäischen Norm spezifiziert das Verfahren zur Klassifizierung von Bauprodukten und Bauteilen anhand der Ergebnisse von Feuerwiderstandsprüfungen und Prüfungen zur Rauchdichtheit entsprechend dem direkten Anwendungsbereich der zugehörigen Prüfverfahren. Zurzeit kann EN 13501-2 nicht zur Klassifizierung des Feuerwiderstandes von Vorhangfassaden benutzt werden. Die Klassifizierung auf der Basis des erweiterten Anwendungsbereichs von Versuchsergebnissen ist nicht Gegenstand dieser Norm. Für die Klassifizierung auf der Basis des erweiterten Anwendungsbereichs werden jedoch die gleichen Klassen benutzt wie in dieser Norm festgelegt.
a) Tragende Bauteile ohne raumabschließende Funktion:
Wände;
Decken;
Dächer;
Balken;
Stützen;
Balkone;
Laubengänge;
Treppen.
b) Tragende Bauteile mit raumabschließender Funktion, mit oder ohne Verglasung, haustechnischer Anlagen und Befestigungen:
Wände;
Decken;
Dächer;
Doppelböden.
c) Produkte und Systeme zum Schutz von Bauteilen oder Teilen von Bauwerken:
Unterdecken ohne eigener Feuerwiderstandsfähigkeit;
Brandschutzbeschichtungen, Bekleidungen und Abschirmungen.
d) Nichttragende Bauteile oder Teile von Bauwerken, mit oder ohne Verglasung, haustechnischer Anlagen und Befestigungen:
Trennwände;
Fassaden (vorgehängt) und Außenwände;
Unterdecken mit eigener Feuerwiderstandsfähigkeit (als selbständiges Bauteil);
Feuerschutztüren und Abschlüsse und ihre Schließvorrichtungen;
Rauchschutztüren;
Förderanlagen und ihre Abschlüsse;
Abschottungen von Durchführungen;
Bauteilfugen;
Installationskanäle und -schächte;
Abgasanlagen.
e) Brandschutztechnisch wirksame Bekleidungen von Wänden und Decken.
f) Fahrschachttüren, die nach prEN 81-58 geprüft wurden, sind nicht Bestandteil dieser Norm. Fahrschachttüren, die nach EN 1634-1 geprüft wurden, werden nach 7.5.5 klassifiziert.
Die jeweils geltenden Prüfverfahren, die für diese Produkte aufgestellt worden sind, sind im Abschnitt 2 aufgelistet.
Classement au feu des produits et éléments de construction - Partie 2: Classement à partir des données d'essais de résistance au feu à l'exclusion des produits utilisés dans les systèmes de ventilation
La présente norme spécifie la méthode de classification des produits de construction et des familles d'éléments à partir des résultats obtenus au cours des essais de résistance au feu qui tombe dans le domaine d'application de la méthode d'essai correspondante. Un classement obtenu à partir d'application étendue ne fait pas parti du domaine d'application de la présente norme.

Frequently Asked Questions
EN 13501-2:2003 is a standard published by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN). Its full title is "Fire classification of construction products and building elements - Part 2: Classification using data from fire resistance tests, excluding ventilation services". This standard covers: This standard specifies the procedure for classification of construction products and element families using data from fire resistance tests which are within the field of application of the relevant test method. Classification on the basis of extended application is not within the scope of this Standard.
This standard specifies the procedure for classification of construction products and element families using data from fire resistance tests which are within the field of application of the relevant test method. Classification on the basis of extended application is not within the scope of this Standard.
EN 13501-2:2003 is classified under the following ICS (International Classification for Standards) categories: 13.220.50 - Fire-resistance of building materials and elements. The ICS classification helps identify the subject area and facilitates finding related standards.
EN 13501-2:2003 has the following relationships with other standards: It is inter standard links to EN 13501-2:2007, EN 1634-3:2004; is excused to EN 13501-1:2002. Understanding these relationships helps ensure you are using the most current and applicable version of the standard.
EN 13501-2:2003 is associated with the following European legislation: EU Directives/Regulations: 305/2011, 89/106/EEC; Standardization Mandates: M/088, M/121, M/122. When a standard is cited in the Official Journal of the European Union, products manufactured in conformity with it benefit from a presumption of conformity with the essential requirements of the corresponding EU directive or regulation.
EN 13501-2:2003 is available in PDF format for immediate download after purchase. The document can be added to your cart and obtained through the secure checkout process. Digital delivery ensures instant access to the complete standard document.

European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text orby endorsement, at the latest by February 2004, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latestby February 2004.This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the EuropeanFree Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of the Construction Products Directive.CEN, CENELEC and EOTA committees preparing technical specifications which contain performance requirementsagainst resistance to fire tests should make reference to the resistance to fire classification given in this standard andnot refer directly to any specific fire test method.Some of the methods referred to by this standards are prENs which are still undergoing technical development. Usersof this standard should, therefore, check the availability and acceptability of these prENs before seeking to apply them.Currently EN 13501-2 cannot be applied to classify curtain walling for resistance to fire. This will be possible once eitherEN 1364-3 "Fire resistance tests for non-loadbearing elements – Part 3: Curtain walling – Full configuration (completeassembly)" is made available or alternative provisions for classifying curtain walling for resistance to fire are madeavailable.EN 13501 consists of the following parts:Part 1:Classification using test data from reaction to fire testsPart 2:Classification using data from fire resistance tests, excluding ventilation servicesPart 3:Classification using data from fire resistance tests on components of normal building service installationsPart 4:Classification using test data from fire resistance tests on smoke control systemsPart 5:Classification using test data from external fire exposure to roof testsAnnexes A and B are normative.This document includes a Bibliography.According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the followingcountries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland,France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal,Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.
Further details relating to the practical application of this curve, and other test parameters e.g. tolerances, are given inEN 1363-2.4.4 The ‘semi-natural’ fireDuring the ‘semi-natural’ fire test the temperature of the fire gases adjacent to the soffit of the ceiling shall reach 1000 °C within 10 min to 20 min of the start of the test.Because of the difficulties in achieving the necessary thermal attack in a conventional furnace, the attack shall beprovided by fire from wooden cribs made from softwood.NOTE 1The ‘semi-natural’ fire is a fire which produces direct flame impingement with a high convective heat transfer contentwhich is not realised in furnace tests using the standard temperature/time curve. The term ‘semi-natural’ fire corresponds to thesingle burning item exposure required for ceilings in 4.3.1.3.4 (a) of the Interpretative Document 2 (not to be confused with the“single burning item” test for reaction to fire). It is relevant only for lightweight suspended horizontal protective membraneshaving a low thermal inertia.NOTE 2Further details relating to the practical application of this thermal attack, and other test parameters, are given inprENV 13381-1.
