BS EN 12089:2013

This standard BS EN 12089:2013 Thermal insulating products for building applications. Determination of bending behaviour is classified in these ICS categories:

• 91.100.60 Thermal and sound insulating materials

This European Standard specifies the equipment and procedures for determining the bending behaviour of full size products (Method A) and test specimens (Method B) under the action of three-point loading. It is applicable to thermal insulating products.

The test is designed to determine the bending strength of products and their deflection at a given load.

The method can be used to determine the resistance of the product to bending stresses during transport and application.
