Roofing and cladding products from metal sheet - Specification for self-supporting products of steel, aluminium or stainless steel sheet - Part 1: Steel

This part of EN 508 specifies requirements for self-supporting roofing, covering, wall cladding, lining, liner tray and tile products for discontinuous laying made from metallic coated steel sheet with or without additional organic coatings. Sheets intended to be used with insulation and membranes are also covered.
This document establishes general characteristics, definitions, classifications and labelling for the products, together with requirements for the materials from which the products can be manufactured. It is intended to be used either by manufacturers to ensure that their products comply with the requirements or by purchasers to verify that the products comply when purchased before they are despatched from the factory. It specifies the requirements for products which enable them to meet all normal service conditions.
This document applies to all discontinuously laid self-supporting external profiled sheets for roofing covering, wall cladding, lining, and liner trays, with the exception of tiles with a surface area less than 1 m2 and produced by stamping. These profiled sheets are designed to keep wind, rain and snow out of the building and to transfer any resultant loads and infrequent maintenance loads to the structure.
This document does not cover products for structural purposes, i.e. it does cover products used in constructions of structural Class III (according to EN 1993 1 3), it does not cover products used in constructions of structural Classes I and II (according to EN 1993 1 3) intended to contribute to the global or partial stability of the building structure by providing racking resistance or resistance to permanent static loads (excluding self-weight of the metal sheet).
No requirements for supporting construction, design of roof, cladding, lining, tile system and execution of connections and flashings are included.

1 Scope
This part of EN 508 specifies requirements for self-supporting roofing, covering, wall cladding, lining,
liner tray and tile products for discontinuous laying made from metallic coated steel sheet with or without
additional organic coatings. Sheets intended to be used with insulation and membranes are also covered.
This document establishes general characteristics, definitions, classifications and labelling for the
products, together with requirements for the materials from which the products can be manufactured. It
is intended to be used either by manufacturers to ensure that their products comply with the
requirements or by purchasers to verify that the products comply when purchased before they are
despatched from the factory. It specifies the requirements for products which enable them to meet all
normal service conditions.
This document applies to all discontinuously laid self-supporting external profiled sheets for roofing
covering, wall cladding, lining, and liner trays, with the exception of tiles with a surface area less than
2
1 m and produced by stamping. These profiled sheets are designed to keep wind, rain and snow out of
the building and to transfer any resultant loads and infrequent maintenance loads to the structure.
This document does not cover products for structural purposes, i.e. it does cover products used in
constructions of structural Class III (according to EN 1993-1-3), it does not cover products used in
constructions of structural Classes I and II (according to EN 1993-1-3) intended to contribute to the
global or partial stability of the building structure by providing racking resistance or resistance to
permanent static loads (excluding self-weight of the metal sheet).
No requirements for supporting construction, design of roof, cladding, lining, tile system and execution
of connections and flashings are included.

NOTE 1 The load level, the levels of safety and permissible deflection are defined in national building regulations.
The product for cladding shall resist the design loads from self weight, eventual insulation, wind. These
loads shall be factored such that they will not impair the performance of the cladding.
NOTE 2 The load level, the levels of safety and permissible deflection are defined in national building regulations.
4.3.2 Calculation and test of mechanical resistance
The mechanical performance of the product shall be stated by the manufacturer, together with details of
how the values were determined, in accordance with conditions in the place of use.
For calculation and testing either conditions in the place of use or EN 1993-1-3 may be used.
Calculation and test methods referred to in this part of EN 508 mainly deal with trapezoidal sheets. Tiles,
standing seam sheets and concealed fix sheets are used in proprietary roofing systems; no structural

requirements are given within this document for these products. These products should normally be
designed by testing.
4.3.3 Dimensions
4.3.3.1 General
The dimensions of the product shall be fixed in order that the roof and cladding constructed with these
products can fulfil its functions.
4.3.3.2 Thickness
Measurements of the thickness of manufactured products, such as profiled sheets, shall be made not less
than 40 mm from the edges in accordance with EN 10143.
Products shall be classified according to tolerance on nominal thickness as follows:
— class 1: full minus nominal normal tolerance according to EN 10143;
— class 2: full minus nominal special tolerance according to EN 10143;
— class 3: 1/2 minus nominal normal tolerance in accordance with EN 10143;
— class 4: zero minus tolerance.
NOTE 1 For products of class 3, mechanical resistance is calculated using the minimum thickness of the steel
core guaranteed by the manufacturer.
NOTE 2 National regulations will state the class of product that it will be possible to use.
4.3.4 Dimensional tolerances for the profiled sheets
Tolerances for the profile shape of the product and methods of measurement shall be in accordance with
Annex D.
4.3.5 Safety in case of fire
4.3.5.1 Reaction to fire
The performance shall be defined according to the Euroclass system. EN 14782 defines the SBI specimen
when required and the direct and extended application rules. The national regulations fix the level of
reaction to fire required for each building.
4.3.5.2 Resistance to fire
When required, the performance shall be defined according to the euroclass system.
NOTE The resistance to fire concerns only the E, I and W classification and does not concern the R-
classification.
4.3.5.3 External fire roof performance
When required, the performance shall be defined according to the euroclass system.
NOTE The external fire roof performance can be Brooft1, Brooft2, Brooft3 or Brooft4.
