EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of EN 14024 testing. This European standard specifies requirements for the assessment of the mechanical strength of metal profiles containing a thermal barrier. It also covers the tests performed to determine the characteristic values of the mechanical properties of the thermal barrier profile and to evaluate the suitability of the thermal barrier material used.
This European standard applies mainly to thermal barrier profiles designed for windows, doors, window walls and curtain walls. It does not apply only to thermal barriers made of metal profiles joined with metal pins or screws.
Thermal barrier profiles are used in various fields of application and demand a different evaluation of their mechanical performance depending on their intended use. This European standard takes this into account with two application areas: one for windows, doors and related components and the other for profiles on facades.
Because of the intrinsic safety of type A, shear and tensile strength can be considered independently, while type B requires an evaluation under the overlapping of loads.
The transverse tensile strength of type A and type O will be determined after simulated shear fracture. For O type, only transverse tensile strength will be determined, shear strength and elasticity constant will not be given.
