    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Pertains to solid wood and wood-based products.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This European Standard is applicable to solid wood and wood-based products.

    This European Standard defines five use classes that represent different service situations to which wood and wood-based products can be exposed. This standard also indicates the biological agents relevant to each situation.

    A use class is not a performance class and does not give guidance for how long wood and wood-based product will last in service.
