EN 599-1:2009 Durability of wood and wood-based products - Efficacy of preventive wood preservatives as determined by biological tests - Part 1: Specification according to use class (Incorporates Amendment A1: 2013)
This part of EN 599 specifies for each of the five use classes defined in EN 335-1; the biological tests required for evaluating the efficacy of wood preservatives for the preventive treatment of solid timber; together with the minimum ageing tests required for the respective use class. It provides the method for calculating the critical value of a preservative.
