This European Standard specifies two methods of determining the bending properties of wood and parquet flooring: a method with a static line load and a method with a static point load.
The methods apply to wood and parquet flooring installed on a non-continuous support and thus assuming static load-bearing conditions.
In this standard, the following properties are dealt with:
- bending stiffness,
- bending capacity,
- maximum load.
