Particleboards - Specifications
This European Standard specifies the requirements for resin-bonded unfaced particleboards.
NOTE 1 This standard will be called up in EN 13986 for construction applications.
The values listed in this standard relate to product properties but they are not characteristic values to be used in design calculations.
NOTE 2 Such characteristic values (e. g. for use in design calculation in ENV 1995-1-1) are given either in EN 12369-1 or derived by testing according to EN 789, EN 1058 and ENV 1156.
Additional information on supplementary properties for certain applications is also given.
NOTE 3 Particleboards in accordance with this standard may be referred to as P1 to P7-boards.
NOTE 4 A new grade of board type P3 has been included and is intended for use as a non load-bearing board for use in humid conditions.
Boards of type P4 to P7 are intended for use in design and construction of load-bearing or stiffening building elements, e. g. walls, flooring, roofing and I-beams (see EN V 1995-1-1 and/or performance standards).
This standard does not give requirements for Oriented Strand Boards (OSB); these are set out in EN 300.
This standard does not apply to extruded particleboards.

Panneaux de particules - Exigences
La présente Norme européenne prescrit les exigences pour les panneaux de particules liées à la résine et non revêtus.
NOTE 1 La présente norme est référencée dans la norme EN 13986 pour les applications dans la construction.
Les valeurs données dans la présente norme concernent les caractéristiques du produit mais ne sont pas les valeurs caractéristiques à utiliser dans les calculs de conception.
NOTE 2 De telles valeurs caractéristiques (par exemple pour des calculs de conception selon ENV 1995-1-1) sont soit données dans la norme EN 12369-1 soit obtenues à partir d'essais selon les normes EN 789, EN 1058 et ENV 1156.
Des informations supplémentaires sur des caractéristiques complémentaires relatives à certaines applications sont également fournies.
NOTE 3 Les panneaux de particules conformes à cette norme peuvent être désignés comme panneaux P1 à P7.
NOTE 4 Un nouveau type de panneau type P3 a été incorporé et est destiné à des usages en panneau non travaillant en milieu humide.
Les panneaux de type P4 à P7 sont destinés à être utilisés dans la conception et la construction d'éléments de bâtiment travaillants ou raidisseurs, par exemple en mur, plancher, toiture ou poutre en I (voir ENV 1995-1-1 et/ou les normes de réalisation).
La présente norme ne donne d'exigences pour les panneaux de lamelles longues, minces et orientées (OSB), ces dernières se trouvent dans EN 300.
La présente norme ne s'applique pas aux panneaux extrudés.

1)Humid conditions are defined in terms of service class 2 of ENV 1995-1-1 which is characterized by a moisture content inthe material corresponding to a temperature of 20 °C and the relative humidity of the surrounding air only exceeding 85 %for a few weeks per year. Boards of this type are suitable for use in biological hazard classes 1 and 2 of EN 335-3.SIST EN 312:2004

In the caseof thickness swelling they shall be equal to or less than the values in tables 2 to 11 and in the case of all otherproperties they shall be equal to or greater than the values in tables 2 to 11.The values in tables 2 to 11 for both bending strength and modulus of elasticity shall apply to test results obtainedin the weakest direction in the plane of the panel.NOTE The manufacturer may test the panel in only the main direction if this direction is clearly indicated on the machinedready to use panel.SIST EN 312:2004
