Overview

EN 1107-2:2001 is a European (CEN) test standard that specifies a method for determining the dimensional stability of thermoplastic and elastomeric roofing and sealing sheets used in roof waterproofing. The standard describes how to measure dimensional variations after heating for flexible sheets for waterproofing, supporting harmonized product assessment and quality control in building applications.

Key topics and technical requirements

The standard focuses on controlled laboratory testing to assess how plastic and rubber roofing sheets change size when exposed to heat. Important technical topics covered include:

  • Scope and applicability: Applies to thermoplastic and elastomeric (plastic and rubber) sheets intended for roof waterproofing and sealing.
  • Test principle: Measurement of dimensional variations after a defined heating treatment to evaluate shrinkage, expansion or other dimensional changes.
  • Specimen preparation: Requirements for sampling and preparing sheet specimens before testing to ensure representative and reproducible results.
  • Heating procedure: A specified heating step (as defined in the standard) followed by measurement to determine dimensional changes.
  • Measurement and calculation: How to measure dimensions before and after heating and how to calculate dimensional variation (expressed as a percentage or linear change).
  • Reporting: Required test data, conditions, and results presentation to support product documentation and conformity assessment.
  • Quality and reproducibility: Procedures to ensure consistent laboratory conditions and repeatable results across test facilities.

(Exact test temperatures, times and calculation formulas are defined in the full EN 1107-2:2001 text.)

Applications and users

EN 1107-2:2001 is practical for anyone involved in the manufacture, testing, specification or regulation of flexible roof waterproofing products:

  • Manufacturers use it for product development, quality control and to demonstrate compliance with European product standards.
  • Independent testing laboratories perform the specified dimensional stability tests and provide certificates or test reports.
  • Specifiers and architects rely on the test results to select materials with acceptable thermal dimensional behaviour for roof designs.
  • Contractors and roofers use the data to understand installation tolerances and potential on-roof performance.
  • Regulatory bodies and product certification schemes reference the standard when assessing conformity of waterproofing sheets.

Related standards

EN 1107-2:2001 forms part of the suite of standards for flexible sheets for waterproofing. It is typically used alongside other European standards for product characteristics, performance testing and installation requirements for roofing membranes and sealing materials.
