EVS-EN 12871:2010

This European Standard specifies the performance requirements and the procedure for demonstrating compliance, through type testing, of load-bearing wood-based panels fitted on: a)  structural joists for decking: -  in flooring applications in categories of use A, B, C and D; -  in roof applications in categories of use H and I; for which type testing involves: -  punching shear under concentrated loading; -  vertically dropped soft body impact; b)  studs for walling application for which type testing involves: - racking behaviour; -  pendular soft body impact. This European Standard also provides a calculation method related to soft overlays that may be installed on roofs or floors with uniform loading.
