Determining the bending properties of wood and parquet flooring are specified using two methods in this European Standard. The first method with a static line load and the second with a static point load. These methods apply to wood and parquet flooring installed on a non-continous support and thus assuming static load-bearing conditions. The following properties are dealt with: Bending Stiffness, Bending Capacity and Maximum Load.
