EN 12865 Standard Test for Rain Resistance of Building Components and Structural Elements, Exterior Wall Systems Under Impact Air Pressure

EUROLAB laboratory provides testing and compliance services within the scope of EN 12865 standard. This standard specifies a general method for assessing the resistance of wall systems to heavy rain by determining the waterproofing of wall systems under pressure of pulsating air.

EN 12865 Standard Test for Rain Resistance of Building Components and Structural Elements, Exterior Wall Systems Under Impact Air Pressure

Heavy rain is often the cause of building damage due to wind-induced rain entering or through exterior wall elements. The amount of heavy rain hitting a local part of the outer wall surface depends on the simultaneous precipitation and wind speed.

The test conditions indicated by the oscillating air pressure differential simulate the dynamic nature of rain and wind pressure against a wall in a simplified manner. Test methods for determining resistance to downpours under static air pressure can yield different results.

This standard is intended to be used by product specifications, except where certain products have features that make this standard difficult to apply.
