Foreword
This document (EN 14064-1:2010) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 88 Thermal insulating materials and products, the secretariat of which is held by DIN. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by August 2010, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by November 2011. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN [and/or CENELEC] shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive(s). For relationship with EU Directive(s), see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this document. EN 14064, Thermal insulation products for buildings In-situ formed loose-fill mineral wool (MW) products, consists of two parts which form a package. The first part (this European Standard), which is the harmonised part satisfying the mandate, the CPD and is the basis for the CE marking, covers the products, which are placed on the market. The second part, which is the non-harmonised part, covers the specification for the installed products. Both parts need to be used for the application of the insulation product in the end-use applications covered by EN 14064. This European Standard contains thirteen annexes: Annex A (normative) Determination of the declared values of thermal resistance and thermal conductivity Annex B (normative) Factory production control Annex C (normative) Specimen preparation for thermal resistance and thermal conductivity test Annex D (normative) Specimen preparation for water absorption test Annex E (normative) Specimen preparation for airflow resistivity test Annex F (normative) Testing for reaction to fire of products Annex G (normative) Testing for reaction to fire of products in standardised assemblies simulating enduse applications Annex H (normative) Rules for creating performance charts for loose-fill insulation and examples of performance charts Annex I (normative) Annex J (normative) Verification of performance chart according to Annex H (normative) Specimen preparation method for coverage measurement

Scope
This European Standard specifies the requirements for blown loose-fill mineral wool products for in-situ installation in lofts, masonry cavity walls and frame constructions. This European standard is a specification for the insulation products before installation. It describes the product characteristics and includes procedures for testing, marking and labelling. This document does not specify the required level of a given property to be achieved by a product to demonstrate fitness for purpose in a particular application. The levels required for a given application are to be found in regulations or non-conflicting standards.
NOTE To avoid water penetration in masonry walls special tests adjusted to local climate might be needed.
This document does not cover factory made mineral wool (MW) insulation products or in-situ products intended to be used for the insulation of building equipment and industrial installations. Products with a declared thermal resistance lower than 0,25 m2K/W or a declared thermal conductivity greater than 0,060 W/(mK) at 10 C are not covered by this document. This document does not cover products intended for airborne sound insulation and for acoustic absorption applications.

4.2
4.2.1
For all applications

Thermal conductivity Thermal resistance
Thermal resistance and thermal conductivity shall be based upon measurements carried out in accordance with EN 12667. The thermal values shall be determined in accordance with Annex A and declared by the manufacturer, according to the following: the reference mean temperature shall be 10 C; the measured values shall be expressed with three significant figures; if the calculation of the declared thermal conductivity value is based on the curve (), this curve shall be determined by the mean of the equation: a + b + c/ , where a, b and c are constants determined by a non-linear regression analysis; the thermal resistance, RD, shall always be declared. The thermal conductivity, D, shall be declared where possible; the thermal resistance, RD, and the thermal conductivity, D, shall be given as limit values representing at least 90 % of the production determined with a confidence level of 90 %; the value of thermal conductivity 90/90 shall be rounded upwards to the nearest 0,001 W/(mK) and declared in levels with steps of 0,001 W/(mK); the declared thermal resistance, RD, shall be calculated from the insulation thickness and the corresponding thermal conductivity, 90/90 (see Note below); The value of thermal resistance, RD, shall be rounded downward to the nearest 0,05 m2K/W and declared in levels with steps of 0,05 m2K/W.
The declaration of the installed thermal resistance for blown mineral wool is described in EN 14064-2.
NOTE
4.2.2
Weight of the sale unit
The quantity of material in one sale unit shall not be lower than the nominal weight of the sale unit. 4.2.3 4.2.3.1 Settlement General
The difference between the three applications listed in 4.1 lies in the requirement for settlement. Loft insulation can have any class of settlement, but closed constructions as masonry cavity wall insulation and frame insulation should fulfil the requirements of settlement class S1 unless otherwise specified in non-conflicting application standards or regulations. 4.2.3.2 Lofts
Settlement shall be declared in accordance with Table 1.
10
BS EN 14064-1:2010 EN 14064-1:2010 (E)
The declaration shall be based upon the expected settlement 25 years after installation. The installed insulation shall have been made on constructions similar to those declared by the manufacturer in the performance chart. The declaration shall be derived from test results from either: documented field studies with continuous monitoring of settlement until equilibrium; or documented field studies with continuous monitoring of settlement for at least three years. If the settlement has not reached equilibrium after three years, the three year value is deemed to represent 80 % of the final settlement;
or when tested according to the method given Annex K.
If the settlement after the completion of any of the above tests is not measurable ( 1 %), settlement class S1 shall be declared. If the settlement after the completion of any of the above tests is more than 1 % but less or equal to 5 %, settlement class S2 shall be declared. If settlement after the completion of any of the above tests is more than 5 % but less than or equal to 10 % then settlement class S3 shall be declared. If settlement after the completion of any of the above tests is more than 10 %, the product does not comply with this standard. Table 1 Classes for settlement for lofts application Class S1 S2 S3 Requirement No measurable settlement ( 1 %) > 1% and 5 % > 5 % and 10 %
4.2.3.3
Walls, masonry walls and frame constructions
As these constructions are difficult or impossible to re-fill, no settlement shall be accepted and only settlement class S1 is accepted. Documented minimum densities to avoid settlement shall be applied. These densities are related to structure type and climatic conditions and are confirmed either by the relevant authority dealing with the application in the "works". Alternatively, the minimum densities in Table 2 shall apply.

4.2.4
Reaction to fire
Reaction to fire classification of the product, as placed on the market, shall be determined in accordance with EN 13501-1, Annex F and the basic Mounting and Fixing rules given in EN 15715.
NOTE 1 This classification is compulsory and always included in the CE Marking label.
Detailed information about the test conditions and the field of application of the classification as stated in the reaction to fire classification report shall be given in the manufacturer's literature. Manufacturers declaring Euroclass A1 without further test shall demonstrate by testing in accordance with EN 13820 that the products do not contain more than 1,0 % by weight of organic matter.
NOTE 2 The Commission Decision 96/603/EC of 4 October 1996 amended by the Commission Decision 00/605/EC of 26 September 2000 gives the list of products to be considered as reaction to fire class Euroclass A1 without the need for testing.
4.2.5 4.2.5.1
Durability characteristics General
The appropriate durability characteristics have been considered and are covered in 4.2.5.2, 4.2.5.3 and 4.2.5.4. 4.2.5.2 Durability of reaction to fire against ageing/degradation
The fire performance of mineral wool does not deteriorate with time. The Euroclass classification of the product is related to the organic content, which cannot increase with time. 4.2.5.3 Durability of thermal conductivity against ageing/degradation
Thermal conductivity of mineral wool products does not change with time, experience has shown the fibre structure to be stable and the porosity contains atmospheric air. 4.2.5.4 Durability of thermal resistance against ageing/degradation
Durability of the thermal resistance is covered by the durability of the installed thickness influence by settlement treated in 4.2.3.

4.3.1
For specific applications

General
If there is no requirement for a property described in 4.3, for a product in use, then the property need not be determined and declared by the manufacturer. 4.3.2 Airflow resistivity
Airflow resistivity shall be determined in accordance with EN 29053:1993, method A, and Annex E. The value of airflow resistivity shall be declared in levels with steps of 1 kPas/m2. No test result shall be lower than the declared value.
NOTE Airflow resistivity can be used when estimating the risk for reduced thermal resistance caused by convection.
4.3.3
Water absorption
Short-term water absorption by partial immersion, Wp, shall be determined in accordance with EN 1609:1996, method A, with specimen preparation in accordance with Annex D. No test result of the water absorption Wp, shall exceed 1,0 kg/m2. 4.3.4 Water vapour diffusion resistance
Water vapour transmission properties shall be declared as the water vapour diffusion resistance factor for homogeneous products. The blown mineral wool has a structure that is highly permeable to water vapour. The water vapour resistance factor, , can be assumed to be 1. Alternatively, values cited in EN 12524:2000, Table 2, may be used. 4.3.5 Reaction to fire of product in standardized assemblies simulating end-use applications
Reaction to fire classification of products in standardized assemblies simulating end-use applications, shall be determined in accordance with EN 13501-1, Annex G and the basic Mounting and Fixing rules given in EN 15715. This classification offers the opportunity to give a complementary and optional declaration on reaction to fire for standard test configurations of assemblies which include the insulation product. The number of the selected test configuration of assembly (Table 5 of EN 15715:2009) which is used in the test shall be quoted with the Euroclass. Detailed information about the test conditions and the field of application of the classification as stated in the reaction to fire classification report shall be given in the manufacturer's literature. 4.3.6 Release of dangerous substances

Annex A (normative) Determination of the declared values of thermal resistance and thermal conductivity
A.1 Introduction
It is the responsibility of the manufacturer to determine the declared value of thermal resistance and thermal conductivity. He will have to demonstrate conformity of the product to its declared value. The declared value of thermal resistance and thermal conductivity of a product are the expected value of the property during an economically reasonable working life under normal conditions, assessed through measured data at reference conditions. According to 4.2 and Clause 8 the declaration is given in the form of one or more performance charts worked out according to Annex I, which requires the manufacturer to determine the conductivity as a function of density.
A.2 Input data

The manufacturer shall have at least ten test results for thermal resistance and thermal conductivity, obtained from external direct or from internal direct measurements in order to calculate the declared values. The direct thermal resistance and thermal conductivity measurements shall be carried out at regular intervals spread over a period of the last twelve months. If less than ten direct test results are available, that period may be extended until ten test results are reached, but with a maximum period of three years, within which the product and production conditions have not changed significantly. For new products the ten thermal resistance or thermal conductivity test results shall be carried out spread over a minimum period of ten days. The declared thermal values and their corresponding densities shall be calculated according to one of the methods given in A.3 at intervals not exceeding three months of production. If the method described in A.3.2, Equation (A.3), is chosen, the manufacturer establishes a curve for thermal conductivity versus density for the chosen product and calculate the density 90/90. The declared thermal conductivity D will correspond to the value of the thermal conductivity read on the curve for a density equal to 90/90. Moreover, the manufacturer has to calculate, from production data, a 90/90 as described in J.2.
A.3 Declared values

A.3.1 General
The derivation of the declared values RD and D from the calculated values, R90/90 and 90/90, shall use the rules given in 4.2.1, which include the rounding conditions.

Annex C (normative) Specimen preparation method for thermal resistance and thermal conductivity test
C.1 Principle
The insulation product shall be blown into a square rigid frame large enough to provide a test specimen corresponding to the dimensions listed in Table 3.
C.2 Procedure
C.2.1 Specimen preparation method for ventilated roof spaces application.
The frame shall be made of rigid insulating material, e.g. cellular plastic. The bottom of the frame shall be made of thin material that will only give a negligible contribution to the total thermal resistance, e.g. plastic foil. In order to get a flat bottom of the frame a rigid sheet shall be placed under the plastic foil to support it during blowing and transportation. Weigh the empty frame and the supporting sheet before the blowing is carried out. Record the weight. Measure the height of the frame; this will be the test specimen thickness. The blowing shall be carried out with a commercial type blowing machine according to the manufacturer's instructions, including hose type, length and diameter and machine setting (blowing air flow, blowing material flow). The machine shall be loaded with sufficient material at least one bag of insulation material to give an even flow during the whole specimen preparation process. The specimen frame shall be placed some metres in front of the end of the blowing nozzle. The distance depends on the machine type and setting. When the machine is started, the nozzle shall be pointed away from the specimen frame. When the insulation is flowing smoothly, the specimen frame shall be filled using a slow, smooth sweeping action from side to side, overlapping both sides of the specimen frame by approximately 0,5 m. The end of the blowing hose shall be held 0,8 m to 1,1 m off the ground with the end portion of the hose horizontal at all times. The distance of the operator from the frame shall be such that the insulation is falling into the frame. The hose shall not be pointed downward or upward when preparing the specimen. When the specimen frame is approximately half full, the nozzle shall be pointed away from it and the machine shall be stopped. Rotate the frame 180 so that the back of the frame is now facing the operator. Do not shake the frame in order to avoid settling of the insulation. Restart the machine and fill the rest of the frame in the same manner as before. To avoid air gaps between the specimen and the plates of the guarded hot plate or heat flow meter apparatus, the frame shall be overfilled. After blowing, remove excess material leaving maximum 20 % over thickness to avoid air gap. The insulation surface shall be flat and the specimen shall have an even insulation distribution. Gently carry the specimen to the thermal conductivity apparatus. Place the specimen in the apparatus by sliding the frame and bottom foil from the supporting sheet to the bottom plate of the thermal conductivity apparatus. After the thermal conductivity measurement, the filled frame and the supporting sheet shall once again be weighed.

BS EN 14064-1:2010 EN 14064-1:2010 (E)
C.2.2 Specimen preparation method for closed cavities application.

The density of the test specimen shall be equal to the minimum density providing no settlement in the closed cavities. The following procedure shall be applied. The frame shall be made of rigid insulating material, e.g. cellular plastic. The bottom of the frame shall be made of thin material that will only give a negligible contribution to the total thermal resistance, e.g. plastic foil. In order to get a flat bottom of the frame a rigid sheet shall be placed under the plastic foil to support it during blowing and transportation. Weigh the empty frame and the supporting sheet before the blowing is carried out. Record the weight w1. Measure the height of the frame; this will be the test specimen thickness, record the height h1. With the height h1 and the area of the frame, calculate the weight w2 of insulation product needed in the frame to have the required minimum density. The blowing method described in C.2.1 shall be applied. After blowing, remove excess material until the desired weight w2 in the frame is reached. If it is needed, the insulation product can be slowly compressed, with a plate of same area as the frame used, to reach the height h1. Leave maximum 10 % over thickness to avoid air gap between the specimen and the plates of the guarded hot plate or heat flow meter apparatus. The insulation surface shall be flat and the specimen shall have an even insulation distribution. Gently carry the specimen to the thermal conductivity apparatus. Place the specimen in the apparatus by sliding the frame and bottom foil from the supporting sheet to the bottom plate of the thermal conductivity apparatus.

Annex D (normative) Specimen preparation method for water absorption test
D.1 Principle
The insulation is blown into a test cage. The blown insulation is then used to create a test specimen with coverage and density in accordance with the manufacturers performance chart.
D.2 Procedure
The insulation product shall be blown into a test cage made from stainless steel mesh with an open area of at least 50 %. The cage shall have inside dimensions of (200 1) mm (200 1) mm 50 mm with a removable face for installing the insulation product. Weigh the empty test cage before the blowing is carried out. Record the weight, w1. Calculate the weight of the insulation, w2, needed to get a specimen corresponding to the density at the minimum bag usage rate of the performance chart. The blowing shall be carried out with a commercial type blowing machine. The machine shall be loaded with sufficient material at least one bag of insulation material to give an even flow during the whole specimen preparation process. The specimen frame shall be placed some metres in front of the end of the blowing nozzle. The distance depends on the machine type and setting. When the machine is started the nozzle shall be pointed away from the specimen frame. When the insulation is flowing smoothly, the test cage shall be filled using a slow, smooth sweeping action from side to side, overlapping both sides of the test cage by approximately 0,5 m. The end of the blowing hose shall be held 0,8 m to 1,1 m off the ground with the end portion of the hose horizontal at all times. The distance of the operator from the test cage shall be such that the insulation is falling into the cage. The hose shall not be pointed downward or upward when preparing the specimen. When the specimen frame is approximately half full, the nozzle shall be pointed away from it and the machine shall be stopped. Rotate the frame 180 so that the back of the test cage is now facing the operator. Do not shake the frame unnecessarily in order to avoid settling of the insulation. Restart the machine and fill the rest of the test cage in the same manner as before. After blowing, the filled test cage shall once again be weighed. In order to get a specimen in accordance with the performance chart, insulation shall be removed until the desired total weight, w1 + w2, is reached. Replace the movable lid, compressing the insulation to the internal dimensions of the cage.

Annex E (normative) Specimen preparation method for airflow resistivity test
E.1 Principle
The insulation is first blown into a box. The blown insulation is then used to create a test specimen with coverage and density in accordance with the manufacturers performance chart.
E.2 Procedure
The insulation product shall be blown into a box with dimensions according to the device measurement. In case of rigid frame use, measure the height of the frame; this will be the test specimen thickness. Weigh the empty box before blowing. Record the weight, w1. Calculate the weight of the insulation, w2, needed to get a specimen corresponding to the density at the minimum bag usage rate of the performance chart. The blowing shall be carried out with a commercial type blowing machine. The machine shall be loaded with sufficient material at least one bag of insulation material to give an even flow during the whole specimen preparation process. The specimen box shall be placed some metres in front of the end of the blowing nozzle. The distance depends on the machine type and setting. When the machine is started the nozzle shall be pointed away from the specimen box. When the insulation is flowing smoothly, the specimen box shall be filled using a slow, smooth sweeping action from side to side, overlapping both sides of the specimen box by approximately 0,5 m. The end of the blowing hose shall be held 0,8 m to 1,1 m off the ground with the end portion of the hose horizontal at all times. The distance of the operator from the box shall be such that the insulation is falling into the box. The hose shall not be pointed downward or upward when preparing the specimen. When the specimen box is approximately half full, the nozzle shall be pointed away from it and the machine shall be stopped. Rotate the box 180 so that the back of the box is now facing the operator. Do not shake the box unnecessarily in order to avoid settling of the insulation. Restart the machine and fill the rest of the box in the same manner as before. After blowing, the specimen shall have an even distribution and a density in accordance with the manufacturer's performance chart. The insulation surface shall be flat and the specimen shall have an even insulation distribution. The frame shall be overfilled, but not by more than 20 % of the frame. The filled box is taken to the test apparatus. The insulation is gently moved to the measurement cell.

Annex H (normative) Rules for creating performance charts for loose-fill insulation and examples of performance charts
H.1 General
A performance chart is a table giving the installed insulation thickness, and the number of bags of insulation to be used to obtain the declared thermal resistance. The manufacturer of the loose-fill insulation product calculates the values of the chart in accordance with the procedure below.
NOTE The chart only should only be recalculated in case of product declared value changes.
H.2 Performance chart for loft insulation

Decide the density, in kilograms per cubic metre (kg/m3) of the installed product after settlement. Determine the declared thermal conductivity, D (W/mK) for the product at that density using the curve () define in 4.2.1. Determine the thickness reduction by settlement, s of the product at the chosen density. In cavity walls and frame constructions there is no thickness reduction by settlement which makes s = 0 in these cases. Loose-fill thermal insulation can be used to create insulation layers with a variety of thicknesses and thermal resistances. Choosing a range for the declared thermal resistance RD (m2K/W) typical for the applications of the product in question. For each value of RD calculate the corresponding insulation thickness after settlement, d (m) using the formula: d = RD D (H.1)
For loft insulation calculate the thickness before settlement corresponding to each thickness after settlement using the formula: dbefore = d/(1 s)
EXAMPLE If d = 0,200 m (200 mm) and s = 5 %, then dbefore = 0,200/(1 0,05) = 0,211 m (211 mm).
(H.2)
For each value of RD calculating the coverage (kg/m 2) using the formula: coverage = d Decide what bag weight, Bnom (kg) to use for the insulation product. For each value of RD calculate the number of bags needed to insulate 100 m2 using the formula: number of bags = 100 d /Bnom (H.4) (H.3)
33
BS EN 14064-1:2010 EN 14064-1:2010 (E)
All calculations are made with three significant figures and declared in levels as follows: R declared in steps of 0,5 m2K/W; Minimum installed thickness rounded to nearest higher 5 mm and declared in steps of 5 mm; Minimum coverage rounded to nearest higher 0,1 kg/m2 and declared in steps of 0,1 kg/m2; Minimum bag usage rate rounded to nearest 0,1 bag and declared in steps of 0,1 bag. Place the calculated values in a performance chart see examples below.

Annex I (normative) Verification of performance chart according to Annex H (normative)
I.1 Principle
As the performance chart is based upon the declared thermal conductivity D and the corresponding declared density D, the verification shall control these parameters according to the requirements in 4.2.1.
I.2 Procedure
The manufacturer establishes a curve for thermal conductivity versus density for the chosen product. The manufacturer has to calculate, from production data, a 90/90 as follows:
90/90 = mean kS
(I.1)
with
s =
(
i =1
mean )
(I.2)
n 1
This density 90/90 is the declared density (D) of the product used for the performance chart. For each production the manufacturer shall verify that the calculated 90/90 from production data is more or equal than the declared density D. The density i is determined as described in Annex K The thermal conductivity when testing according to 4.2.1 shall not exceed the curve for thermal conductivity versus density by more than 6 % for one test result. The measurements according to 4.2.1 shall be distributed between the lower density and higher density of the density/conductivity curve.

Annex J (normative) Specimen preparation method for coverage and density measurement
J.1 Principle
To determine the coverage value of the product for a ventilated roof space application, the insulation product shall be blown into a 2 m 1 m 0,2 m box, other thickness (minimum 100 mm) can be chosen depending on the intended used. The thickness and the weight of the box, before and after filling, shall be recorded to calculate the density. To determine the density value for a closed construction application, the insulation product shall be blown in a closed space, the dimension of this cavity are measured (height, width, depth of the cavity) the insulation is collected and weight to calculate the density.
J.2 Procedure for ventilated roof space application

Weigh the empty box before the blowing is carried out. Record the weight w1 in kilograms (kg). The blowing shall be carried out with a commercial type blowing machine according to the manufacturer instructions, including hose type, length and diameter machine setting (blowing air flow, blowing material flow). The machine shall be loaded with sufficient material at least one bag of insulation material to give an even flow during the whole specimen preparation process. The specimen frame shall be placed some metres in front of the end of the blowing nozzle. The distance depends on the machine type and setting. When the machine is started, the nozzle shall be pointed away from the specimen frame. The blowing shall be done in the direction of the longer side of the frame. When the insulation is flowing smoothly, the specimen frame shall be filled using a slow, smooth sweeping action from side to side, overlapping both sides of the specimen frame by approximately 0,5 m. The end of the blowing hose shall be held 0,8 m to 1,1 m off the ground with the end portion of the hose horizontal at all times. The distance of the operator from the frame shall be such that the insulation is falling into the box. The hose shall not be pointed downward or upward when preparing the specimen. When the specimen frame is approximately half-full, the nozzle shall be pointed away from it and the machine shall be stopped. Rotate the frame 180 so that the back of the frame is now facing the operator. Do not shake the frame in order to avoid settling of the insulation. Restart the machine and fill the rest of the frame in the same manner as before. After blowing, the over thickness of insulation shall be eliminated and the insulation surface shall be flat and the specimen shall have an even insulation distribution. The height of the insulation shall be equal to the frame height. The thickness measurements shall be made to the nearest 1 mm at eight positions evenly distributed over the area of the box, in accordance with EN 823 but under a (20 1,5) Pa plate of 200 mm 200 mm dimension. The insulation thickness, d, is the average value of the eight measurements. Record the weight of the filled box w2 in kilograms (kg). The density in kilograms per cubic metre (kg/m ) is:

(J.1)
A is the area of the box in square metres (m).
J.3 Procedure for closed construction

Measure the dimension of the closed cavity and calculate its volume. Fill the closed construction by blowing the insulation product into the cavity. The blowing shall be carried out with a commercial type blowing machine according to the manufacturer instructions, including hose type, length and diameter, drilling pattern and machine setting. When the cavity is filled, collect the totality of the insulation blown into the cavity, and record the weight of insulation w1. The density in kilograms per cubic metre (kg/m ) is:

Annex K (normative) Thermal insulating products for lofts - Determination of settlement for blown loose fill insulation
K.1 Principle
A test specimen is made by blowing the product into a box. The box with the blown specimen is subjected to temperature and moisture cycling. At the beginning and during the climate cycling the change in thickness is monitored.
K.2 Apparatus
Open top box with inside dimensions (length, width, height) 600 mm 10 mm, 600 mm 10 mm, 300 mm + 20 mm - 0 mm, other thickness can be chosen depending the intended use. The thickness measurements shall be made to the nearest 1 mm at nine positions evenly distributed over the area of the box.
NOTE As an example nine rulers 320 mm long with maximum diameter 8 mm and graduated in millimetres (mm) are fixed at the base and are parallel with the sides of the box and evenly spaced across the base.
Climatic chamber large enough to accommodate the specimen box and providing a controlled climate in the range from 5 C to 60 C and relative humidity from 50 % relative humidity to 85 % relative humidity.
K.3 Test specimens

a) Preparation of test specimens
The specimen box is blown with insulation to a thickness of 300 mm according to the manufactures recommendations for installation. b) Number of test specimens
The number of test specimen shall be at least two. c) Conditioning of test specimens
The test specimens shall be stored for at least 6 h at (23 2) C. In case of dispute it shall be carried out at (23 2) C and (50 5) % relative humidity.
K.4 Test procedure

To avoid settlement by shock during the installation, the test box with insulation is carefully installed in the climate chamber. The test is composed of four cycles of two periods. The chamber is controlled to the following conditions:
39
BS EN 14064-1:2010 EN 14064-1:2010 (E)
Cycle 1:

Annex L (informative) Masonry cavity walls - Method for determining suitable spacings for blowing holes
L.1 Test house

The test house (Figure L.1) has an outer brick leaf with stabilising piers and a transparent plastic inner leaf. The cavity width is nominally 75 mm and wall ties are spaced at standard centres for a masonry cavity wall. Features common to all masonry cavity walls are incorporated, doors and windows, air bricks, lintels and joist ends. The cavity is sealed at ceiling level.
L.2 Test method

The test house is filled from the outside using the specified insulant, pattern, equipment and technique.
L.3 Observations
The flow of insulant in the cavity is observed from the inside of the test house while filling takes place. There should be no significant unfilled areas under lintels and windows, at ceiling level, around air bricks and at the mid point between blowing holes both horizontally and vertically.
L.4 Installation procedure

The brickwork should be drilled using a pattern applicable to the insulation material. The pattern sequence and size of drilled hole should be recorded on Figure L.1. Installation details recording the total system used should be recorded in Table L.1. Installation procedure indicating the blowing times for each hole should be recorded in Table L.2.
NOTE Due to the difference in friction characteristics between the plastic inner leaf and the masonry outer leaf of the cavity wall, slippage fissures may occur in the area within 300 mm of the blowing hole. These should not be considered as voids, which would constitute a failure.

Annex ZA (informative) Clauses of this European Standard addressing the provisions of the EU Construction Products Directive
ZA.1 Scope and relevant characteristics

This European Standard has been prepared under mandate M/103 Commission and the European Free Trade Association.
1)
given to CEN by the European
The clauses of this European Standard, shown in the table below, meet the requirements of the Mandate M/1031) given under the EU Construction Products Directive (89/106/EEC). Compliance with these clauses confers a presumption of fitness of the construction product covered by this European Standard for its intended uses indicated herein; references shall be made to the information accompanying the CE marking.
WARNING Other requirements and other EU Directives, not affecting the fitness for intended uses, can be applicable to the construction products falling within the scope of this European Standard.
NOTE 1 In addition to the specific clauses relating to dangerous substances contained in this standard, there may be other requirements applicable to the products falling within its scope (e.g. transposed European legislation and national laws, regulations and administrative provisions). In order to meet the provisions of the EU Construction Products Directive, these requirements need also to be complied with, when and where they apply. NOTE 2 An informative database of European and national provisions on dangerous substances is available at the Construction web site on EUROPA (accessed through http://ec.europa.eu/enterprise/construction/internal/dangsub/dangmain_en.htm).
This annex establishes the conditions for the CE marking of the in-situ formed mineral wool intended for the uses indicated in Table ZA.1 and shows the relevant clauses applicable. This annex has the same scope as Clause 1 of this standard and is defined by Table ZA.1.

Classes
The requirement on a certain characteristic is not applicable in those Member States (MSs) where there are no regulatory requirements on that characteristic for the intended use of the product. In this case, manufacturers placing their products on the market of these MSs are not obliged to determine nor declare the performance of their products with regard to this characteristic and the option "No performance determined" (NPD) in the information accompanying the CE marking (see ZA.3) may be used. The NPD option may not be used, however, where the characteristic is subject to a threshold level (thermal resistance (thermal conductivity and thickness)). The fire performance of mineral wool does not detoriate with time. The Euroclass classification of the product is related to the organic content, which cannot increase with time. Thermal conductivity of mineral wool products does not change with time, experience has shown the fibre structure to be stable and the porosity contains atmospheric air.
ZA.2 Procedures for attestation of conformity of in-situ formed loose-fill mineral wool (MW) products
ZA.2.1 Systems of attestation of conformity
For products having more than one of the intended uses specified in the following families, the tasks for the approved body, derived from the relevant systems of attestation of conformity, are cumulative. The system of attestation of conformity for the loose-fill mineral wool (MW) products intended to be formed insitu, indicated in Table ZA.1 in accordance with the decision of the European Commission 95/204/EC of 30.04.95 revised by decision 99/91/EC of 25.01.99 amended by the decision 01/596/EC of 8 January and as given in Annex III of the mandate M103 as amended by mandates M126 and M130 is shown in Table ZA.2 for the indicated intended use(s).
