Certification and Testing
Reaction to Fire
QuadCore® Lo-Pitch Roof Panels are classified B-s1,d0, when tested on the internal face of the product, according to the European Reaction to Fire classification system (Euroclasses) BS EN 13501-1: 2018 under the certified name Lo-Pitch QuadCore® when using the following internal liners: CLEANsafe 15, CLEANsafe 25, CLEANsafe 55, CLEANsafe 120 and AQUAsafe 55. Please contact Kingspan Tech-eXchange for information relating to the external face.
Roof Applications
QuadCore® Lo-Pitch Roof Panels are tested to: Broof(t4) to BS EN 13501-5: 2016 under the certified name Lo-Pitch for panel thicknesses 80 mm and 115 mm and roof pitch of 0° - 10°.
Insurer Approvals
QuadCore Lo-Pitch Roof Panels are tested to: FM 4471 approval standard for class 1 roof panels under the certified name QuadCore Lo-Pitch KS1000LP. This classification is valid for panel thicknesses 80 – 115mm.
Insurer approvals are large scale testing regimes that provide objective third-party testing, which is underpinned by quarterly, bi-annual and annual factory surveillance audits (depending on the region) to verify compliance. Insurer approvals are subject to panel thickness, cover width, orientation, method of assembly, steel coating and manufacturing facility. Please contact Kingspan Tech-eXchange for further information.
Air Leakage
An air leakage rate of 3m³/hr/m² at 50Pa or less can be achieved when using Kingspan insulated roof and wall panels. For information on detailing required to achieve lower air leakage rates please contact Kingspan Tech-eXchange.
Acoustic
| Frequency (Hz) | 63 | 125 | 250 | 500 | 1000 | 2000 | 4000 | 8000 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| SRI (dB) | 20 | 18 | 20 | 24 | 20 | 29 | 39 | 47 |
QuadCore Lo-Pitch Roof Panels have a single figure weighted sound reduction Rw = 25dB. Results are based on panels of similar profile and core material.
