Other characteristic and calculated values
The following values can generally be applied for the moisture protection, preservative treatment and fire protection verifications.
Technical characteristics

Swelling and shrinkage ratio | 0,24% pro 1 % Water vapor diffusion resistance factor |
Reaction to fire class in accordance with EN 13501-1 | D-s2, d0 |
Recommended weight for calculation of dead-loads (including weight of fasteners and light weight connectors etc.) | 5 kN/m³ |
Thermal conductivity λ | 0,13 W / (mK) |
Water vapour permeability µ | 40 |
The natural durability against biological attack corresponds to the natural durability of the species of wood, regardless of the type of glue used.
