DIN EN 15080-12:2011-04

This European Standard provides guidance, and where appropriate defines procedures for variations of certain parameters and factors associated with the design of internal and external loadbearing walls that have been tested in accordance with EN 1365-1. Data from historic standard fire resistance tests may be used as supporting information. Manufactured stone masonry units according to EN 771-5 and natural stone units according to EN 771-6 are not covered by this European Standard. This European Standard is also not valid for reinforced masonry. The method specified in this European Standard results in cost savings, as amendments within the framework of this European Standard are possible beyond the direct scope of the test standard without having to carry out extensive new tests. This European Standard has been prepared by CEN/TC 127 ("Fire safety in buildings").
