: maximum 1200 mm;  Height H
: minimum 250 mm. The limit deviations on dimensions W and H (see Figure 1) declared by the manufacturers, measured in accordance with 6.3.2 and 6.3.3, shall be:  ± 3 mm on width W;  ± 3 mm on height H.

4.3.2 Nail shank tear resistance Measured under the test conditions described in 6.4.2, the minimum value of the tear resistance shall be 100 N. This requirement only applies to materials intended to be nailed. 4.4 Durability 4.4.1 Water absorption Measured under the test conditions described in 6.4.3, the increase in mass shall be less than 2 % for each test piece. 4.4.2 Resistance to UV radiation Measured under the test conditions described in 6.4.4, there shall be no cracking or fissuring. 4.4.3 Resistance to blistering Resistance to blistering test is only relevant for shingles with other reinforcement than type 3, type 4, type 6 or type 7 (see 8.1). Measured under the test conditions described in 6.4.5, there shall not be any blisters on the shingle surface. 4.4.4 Flow resistance at elevated temperature Measured under the test conditions described in 6.4.6, the flow resistance shall be less than or equal to 2 mm for each test piece. 4.4.5 Adhesion of mineral granules or flakes of slate Where the top surface of the shingle is protected with embedded mineral granules, the granule adhesion shall be determined in accordance with 6.4.7. Each value shall be below the manufacturer’s limited value (maximum value) and shall not exceed 2,5 g.
