This Technical Specification specifies a test method for determining the strength and uplift resistance of fasteners for clay and concrete interlocking tiles for roofing.
NOTE 1 The results of this test may be used to determine the uplift force which can be withstood by the fastener; e.g. to withstand wind force.
NOTE 2 When the results of the test method for mechanical fasteners have a correlation to the results of the roof system test method [EN 14437] they can be used to establish the uplift resistance of installed clay and concrete tiles for roofing.
The test method is applicable to mechanical fasteners such as clips, hooks, screws and nails. It is not applicable to fasteners which hold down more than one tile.
