DD CEN/TS 14966:2005 PDF

Scope: This Technical Specification specifies small-scale test methods for estimating the following mechanical properties of wood-based panels:  indicative planar shear strength (sometimes referred to as block shear);  indicative panel shear strength;  indicative strength and modulus of elasticity in tension in the plane of the panel;  indicative strength in compression in the plane of the panel. Reference should be made to EN 310 for bending properties. For plywood, EN 314-1 may also be used as an indicator of planar shear strength. These test methods are intended for indicative purposes only and should not be used as a means of determining structural design values. They may not be suitable for all panel types. They may be used as a means of supporting quality control procedures for structural panels, if correlations with EN 789 test results can be established (CEN Technical Report in preparation).
