BS EN 12825:2001 – Raised access floors
1 Scope
This standard specifies the characteristics and performance requirements of raised access floors for which the main intended use is the internal fitting out of buildings, providing full access to the services to the plenum. This standard does not cover requirements related to dangerous substances that may be subject to regulations. It is applicable to modular, factory made flooring elements, comprising panels and pedestals and defines the test methods and measurement. It provides for the evaluation of conformity of the product to this European Standard.
