THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 305/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 March 2011 laying down harmonised conditions for the marketing of construction products and repealing Council Directive 89/106/EEC [^ntr1-L_2016068EN.01000401-E0001], and in particular Article 27(1) thereof,

Whereas:

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

When the intended use of a construction product is such that the product may contribute to the generation and spread of fire and smoke within the room or area of origin or beyond, the performance of the product in relation to its reaction to fire shall be classified in accordance with the classification system set out in the Annex.

Article 2

Decision 2000/147/EC is repealed.

References to the repealed Decision shall be construed as references to this Regulation.

Article 3

This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Done at Brussels, 1 July 2015.

For the Commission

The President

Jean-Claude JUNCKER

[^ntr2-L_2016068EN.01000401-E0002]: Commission Decision 2000/147/EC of 8 February 2000 implementing Council Directive 89/106/EEC as regards the classification of the reaction to fire performance of construction products (OJ L 50, 23.2.2000, p. 14).

ANNEX

Classes of reaction to fire performance

1.1. For the purposes of Tables 1 to 4 the following symbols [^ntr1-L_2016068EN.01000601-E0001] apply: (1) ‘ΔΤ’— temperature rise; (2) ‘Δm’— mass loss; (3) ‘tf’— duration of flaming; (4) ‘PCS’— gross calorific potential; (5) ‘LFS’— lateral flame spread; (6) ‘SMOGRA’— smoke growth rate.
--- --- ---
1.2. For the purposes of Tables 1, 2 and 3 the following symbols [^ntr1-L_2016068EN.01000601-E0001] apply: (1) ‘FIGRA’— fire growth rate; (2) ‘THR’— total heat release; (3) ‘TSP’— total smoke production; (4) ‘Fs’— flame spread.
--- --- ---
1.3. For the purposes of Table 4 the following symbols and test parameters apply: (1) ‘HRRsm30, kW’— heat release rate averaged by a 30-s sliding average; (2) ‘SPRsm60, m2/s’— smoke production rate averaged by a 60-s sliding average; (3) ‘Peak HRR, kW’— maximum of HRRsm30 between test start and end of test, excluded contribution from ignition source; (4) ‘Peak SPR, m2/s’— maximum of SPRsm60 between test start and end of test; (5) ‘THR1200, MJ’— total heat release (HRRsm30) from test start until end of test, excluded contribution from ignition source; (6) ‘TSP1200, m2’— total smoke production (HRRsm60) from test start until end of test; (7) ‘FIGRA, W/s’— fire growth rate index defined as the highest value of the quotient between HRRsm30 excluding the contribution of ignition source and time. Threshold values HRRsm30 = 3 kW and THR = 0,4 MJ; (8) ‘FS’— flame spread (damaged length); (9) ‘H’— flame spread.
--- --- ---
2. For the purposes of Tables 1 to 4 the following definitions apply: (1) ‘material’ means a single basic substance or uniformly dispersed mixture of substances; (2) ‘homogeneous product’ means a product consisting of a single material, having uniform density and composition throughout the product; (3) ‘non-homogeneous product’ means a product that does not satisfy the requirements of a homogeneous product and that is composed of one or more components, substantial and/or non-substantial; (4) ‘substantial component’ means a material that constitutes a significant part of a non-homogeneous product; a layer with a mass per unit area ≥ 1,0 kg/m2 or a thickness ≥ 1,0 mm is considered to be a substantial component; (5) ‘non-substantial component’ means a material that does not constitute a significant part of a non-homogeneous product; a layer with a mass per unit area < 1,0 kg/m2 and a thickness < 1,0 mm is considered to be a non-substantial component; (6) ‘internal non-substantial component’ means a non-substantial component that is covered on both sides by at least one substantial component; (7) ‘external non-substantial component’ means a non-substantial component that is not covered on one side by a substantial component. Two or more non-substantial layers that are adjacent to each other, where there are no substantial components in between the layers, shall be considered as one non-substantial component and shall, therefore, be classified in accordance with the criteria for a layer that is a non-substantial component.
