5 Page 3 EN 1910:2000 Foreword This European Standard has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 175 "Round and sawn timber", the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR. 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of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by July 2000, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by July According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. This document is one of a series of standards specifying requirements and test methods for wood and parquet flooring.

6 Page 4 EN 1910: Scope This European standard specifies a method of test to determine the dimensional changes and warp of the elements of wood and parquet flooring and wood panelling and cladding. 2. Normative references This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the publications are listed hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this European Standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision. For undated references the latest edition of the publication referred to applies (including amendments). pren :1998 Round and sawn timber - Method of measurement of moisture content Part 1: Method for determining moisture content of a piece of sawn timber (Oven-dry method) pren :1998 Round and sawn timber- Method of measurement of moisture content Part 2: Method for estimating moisture content of a piece of sawn timber (Electrical method) pren 13756:1999 Wood floor covering - Terminology pren 13647:1999 Wood and parquet flooring and wood panelling and cladding - Determination of geometrical characteristics 3. Terms and definitions For the purposes of this European Standard the general terms and definitions for wood and parquet flooring in pren 13756:1999 apply. 4. Principle Measure the dimensional changes of the test specimen after initial conditioning in a standard atmosphere and again after conditioning in a specified climate. Express the results as a percentage of variation of the relevant dimension measured in the initial standard climatic conditions. Record the warp and relate to the basis of measurement. 5. Test equipment 5.1 Conditioning room or enclosure The conditioning room or enclosure shall be equipped with monitoring thermometers and hygrometers. It shall be suitable to condition the test specimen either in: - climate A, defined by a relative humidity of (65 ± 5) % and a temperature of (20 ± 2) C, or - climate B, defined by a relative humidity of (50 ± 5) % and a temperature of (23 ± 2) C.
