BS EN 1058:2009

This standard BS EN 1058:2009 Wood-based panels. Determination of characteristic 5-percentile values and characteristic mean values is classified in these ICS categories:

• 79.060.01 Wood-based panels in general

On the basis of test results from wood-based panel products for structural purposes, this European Standard specifies a method for the determination of:

• characteristic 5-percentile values of mechanical properties under the assumption of a log-normal distribution of the test data according to EN 14358; and

• characteristic mean values (50-percentile values) of physical properties under the assumption of a normal distribution of the test data.

Test data should be determined from tests using the test methods outlined in EN 789.
