Introduction
The purpose of this test is to determine the resistance to pre-treatment by impact puncturing followed
by dynamic water pressure testing for sheets in the waterproofing system.
The test is normally performed for single sheets but may also be performed for double sheet systems.

1 Scope

This European Standard specifies a test method for the evaluation of the resistance to impact
puncturing of a sheet or sheet system.

For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in EN 13416:2001EN 13416, EN
14695and prEN 14695:2003prEN 17048apply.

4 Test methods

4.1 Principle

Pre-treatment impact puncturing is carried out at room temperature, where a conical weight is allowed
to fall freely on to the waterproofing sheet. The degree of penetration is then assessed with the aid of
dynamic water pressure testing.
4.2 Apparatus and materials

Equipment for impact puncturing, with a puncturing tool consisting of (1,0 ± 0,01) kg of steel with a 90°
conical point (see Figures 2 and 3).
Concrete slab, according to EN 13375 for supporting the test specimen during impact puncturing.
Suitable frame, for holding the test specimen firmly to the concrete slab.
Equipment for the water pressure test, with a dynamic water pressure applied (see Figures 4 and 5).
4.3 Preparation of test specimens

Take test samples and test pieces in accordance with EN 13416.


Select one test specimen of 400 mm × 200 mm for testing.
In the case of a double sheet system, weld or glue the two sheets together according to manufacturer
instructions. Ensure that the sheet or sheet system thickness is within the limits of the equipment used.
Condition the test specimen for at least 24 h at a temperature of (23 ± 2) °C.

1
BS EN 14694:2017 — Tracked Changes

4.4 Procedure

4.4.1 Carry out the testing at a temperature of (23 ± 2) °C.

4.4.2 Select on the test specimen of 400 mm × 200 mm two circular sections of diameter 135 mm
approximately.

4.4.3 Lay the test specimen on the horizontal concrete slab, with the upper side of the sheet facing
upwards. Hold the test specimen down and in place with a suitable frame. The sheet shall not be
bonded to the concrete.

4.4.4 Impact the test specimen at 4 points in each circular section, ensuring that the 4 points are
diametrically positioned within each circular section so that each point will fit into a disc slot
according to Figure 5. Allow the puncturing tool to fall freely and vertically from a specified height
of (200 ± 2) mm onto the surface of the test specimen.

4.4.5 Cut the two circular test specimens (diameter 135 mm approximately) from the pre-treated
test specimen for water pressure testing.

4.4.6 Fill the apparatus for the water pressure test with water till overflowing. In testing, mount
the circular test specimen firmly with the upper side of the sheet facing upwards in the equipment
(see Figure 4). Place the slotted disc (see Figure 5), on top of the test specimen so that a punctured
point appears in the middle of each slot, with one of the slots being parallel to the longitudinal
direction of the sheet. Progressively tighten until the test specimen is firmly in place, and dry where
necessary with a cloth or with compressed air.

4.4.7 Under the influence of a specified dynamic water pressure, examine the circular test
specimen to determine whether it remains impervious for a specified number of pulses. The
dynamic pressure is defined in Figure 1. The water pressure is increased from 0 kPa to (500 ± 5)
kPa within 0,5 s, kept at that pressure for 2,5 s, decreased again within 0,5 s to 0 kPa and kept there
for another 2,5 s. The total time of a pulse is 5 s to 6 s. Perform 1 000 pulses of the dynamic water
pressure test on both circular test specimens. If a visual inspection identifies a leakage in the test
specimen, terminate the test and record the number of pulses.

BS EN 14694:2017 — Tracked Changes

Figure 1 — Dynamic pressure load function


4.5 Expression of results

If both circular test specimens are watertight, the result is “pass”. Repeat the test once if one of the
two circular test specimens has leaked, and report the test results. If both circular test specimens of
this repeated test are watertight, the result is “pass”, if not “not pass”.
NOTE There is no precision data currently available.

4.6 Test report

The test report shall include at least the following information:


a) all details necessary to identify the product tested;

b) a reference to this document and any deviation from it;

c) the dates of delivery of sample and preparation of test specimens;

d) information about preparation of test specimens in accordance with 4.3;

e) information about the procedure in accordance with 4.4;

f) the test results in accordance with 4.5 and, in case of leakage, the number of pulses before
leakage;

g) the date of tests.

4.4 Procedure

4.4.1 Carry out the testing at a temperature of (23 ± 2) °C.

4.4.2 Select on the test specimen of 400 mm × 200 mm two circular sections of diameter 135 mm
approximately.

4.4.3 Lay the test specimen on the horizontal concrete slab, with the upper side of the sheet facing

4.4.4 Impact the test specimen at 4 points in each circular section, ensuring that the 4 points are
diametrically positioned within each circular section so that each point will fit into a disc slot according
to Figure 5. Allow the puncturing tool to fall freely and vertically from a specified height of

4.4.6 Fill the apparatus for the water pressure test with water till overflowing. In testing, mount the
circular test specimen firmly with the upper side of the sheet facing upwards in the equipment (see

cloth or with compressed air.

4.4.7 Under the influence of a specified dynamic water pressure, examine the circular test specimen
to determine whether it remains impervious for a specified number of pulses. The dynamic pressure is
defined in Figure 1. The water pressure is increased from 0 kPa to (500 ± 5) kPa within 0,5 s, kept at
that pressure for 2,5 s, decreased again within 0,5 s to 0 kPa and kept there for another 2,5 s. The total
time of a pulse is 5 s to 6 s. Perform 1 000 pulses of the dynamic water pressure test on both circular
test specimens. If a visual inspection identifies a leakage in the test specimen, terminate the test and
record the number of pulses.
