Sound insulation

48 dB (Rw) when tested to BS EN 10140-2.

Duty rating (to BS 5234-2)

Severe Duty in accordance with BS 5234-2, clause 1.6.2 & 1.6.3 of Annex B & C.

System code

EN-PC-70-055-6-2-15-SSP-0.

Guidance for specification option:

The maximum height stated under Partition height (see below) is for the fire resistance of the system to meet project requirements where EN compliance is required. The stated maximum height figure is the lower value between the cold state height, calculated structurally to a limiting deflection of L/240 @ 200 Pa and the fire state height, as outlined in accordance with EN 1364-1 and EN 15254-3.

BS-PC-70-055-6-2-15-SSP-0.

Guidance for specification option:

The maximum height stated under Partition height (see below) is for the fire resistance of the system to meet project requirements where BS compliance (BS 476-22), is required and is accepted by the client, designers and building control. The stated maximum height figure is based on the maximum cold state height, calculated structurally to a limiting deflection of L/240 @ 200 Pa.
