    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Describes a method for determining the fire resistance of non-loadbearing walls.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This European standard specifies a method for determining the fire resistance of non-loadbearing walls. This European Standard is used in conjunction with EN1363‑1 . It is applicable to internal non-loadbearing walls (partitions), with and without glazing, non-loadbearing walls consisting almost wholly of glazing (glazed non-loadbearing walls) and other non-loadbearing internal and external non-loadbearing walls with and without glazing. The fire resistance of external non-loadbearing walls can be determined under internal or external exposure conditions. In the latter case the external fire exposure curve given in EN1363‑2 is used. It is not applicable to: curtain walls (external non-loadbearing walls suspended in front of the floor slab), unless explicitly permitted under EN1364‑3 or EN1364‑4 which contain details of the methodology to be used. non-loadbearing walls containing door assemblies that are tested according to EN1634‑1 . Specific requirements for testing glazed elements or non-loadbearing walls incorporating glazing are given in AnnexA. Specific requirements relating to the testing of non-loadbearing external and internal walls designed to span horizontally between two independently proven fire resisting vertical structural elements are given in AnnexB.
