Make a similar set of marks on the adjacent edge. Make the marks in the direction of manufacture and at right angles to it.4.3ConditioningCondition the test pieces at (50 ± 5) % relative humidity and a temperature of (23 ± 2) °C for at least 48 h.5Procedure5.1GeneralTest pieces taken from carpets shall be tested upside down.For sand- or rubber-filled surfaces, perform the test without sand or rubber.5.2Initial measurement of the test piecePlace the conditioned test piece on the metal plate (3.1.2) with the backing uppermost. Determine the length of the test piece at the three marks equally spaced over the total length, using the test apparatus described in3.1, measure and record the distance between the marks on the edges parallel to and at right angle to the direction of manufacture to the nearest 0,1 mm.Place the metal plate (3.1.2) on the test piece.5.3Determination of dimensional changeImmerse the test piece, laid flat, into a container (3.2) containing water and 0,1% sodium lauryl sulfate at a temperature of (23 ± 2) °C. Allow it to soak in the water for (24 ± 1) h.Remove the test piece from the water and make the measurements described in 5.2 no later than 5 min after removal. Note and record the appearance of the test piece.Immediately after measurement, place the test piece in the deep-freeze (3.3), Iying freely but flat at a temperature of (-18 ± 2) °C. Leave it in the deep-freeze for (24 ± 1) h.Remove the test piece from the deep-freeze and make the measurements described in 5.2 no later than 5 min after removal. Note and record the appearance of the test piece.Dry the test piece for (72 ± 1) h in a drying oven (3.4) at (70 ± 2) °C, Iying freely but flat on the perforated shelves.Immediately after removing the test piece from the oven, make the measurements described in 5.2. Note and record the appearance of the test piece.Finally, leave the test piece for (48 ± 1) h in the conditioning enclosure (3.5). Make the measurements described in 5.2. Note and record the final appearance of the test piece.6CalculationCalculate, for each test piece, the percentage variation in each measurement using the formula:l lL= mo ×100lowhere:lo is the initial length;lm is the length at each of the stages referred to in clause 5.Indicate a decrease in dimensions by a minus sign, and an increase in dimensions by a plus sign.Calculate the arithmetic mean for each test piece in each direction and for each stage referred to in clause 5.7Test reportThe test report shall include the following:a)reference to this European Standard, i.e. EN 13746:2004;b)complete identification of the surface tested, including the manufacturers reference and its previous history;c)for each test piece, the individual values of the length measurements parallel and at right angles to the direction of manufacture, together with the results obtained as specified in clause 6;d)a description of the appearance of the test pieces at each stage and their final appearance;e)type of measuring instrument used.BS EN13746:2004BSI389 Chiswick High RoadLondonW4 4ALBSI British Standards InstitutionBSI is the independent national body responsible for preparingBritish Standards.
