EN 822 Thermal Insulation Products for Building Applications - Standard Test Method for Determination of Length and Width

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of EN 822 testing. This European standard specifies equipment and procedures for determining the length and width of full-size products. Applicable to thermal insulation products. A test sample is placed on a flat surface and a direct linear measurement is made with a metal ruler or metal tape.

EN 822 Thermal Insulation Products for Building Applications - Standard Test Method for Determination of Length and Width

The length and width determination of thermal insulation products is important for building applications because correct sizing helps to reduce the energy efficiency of the building and the heating/cooling costs.

The length of thermal insulation products is determined by the dimensions and design of the structure. For example, the length of a wall should be equal to the length of the block or layer of plaster that makes up the length of the wall. The width of the thermal insulation product is determined by the width of the wall or the width of the ceiling of the product mounted on the ceiling.

For the sizing of thermal insulation products, the R-values ​​or U-values ​​required for the application are used in order to increase the energy efficiency of the building. These values ​​measure the thermal conductivity of the structure and determine the amount of insulation required for correct sizing.

This is for general information only, it is recommended that when dimensioning for a specific structure, it should be done by an expert engineer according to the characteristics of the structure, the legislation and the location of the structure.
