BAS EN 15416-5:2011

This document specifies a method of determining the conventional pressing time at three temperatures and three wood moisture contents. This document is intended to determine the conventional pressing time for one component polyurethane adhesives using a defined procedure for obtaining a reliable base for comparison of conventional pressing time between adhesives. The method gives a result that cannot be applied to the safe manufacture of timber structures without taking into account the influence of factors such as timber density/moisture content, factory temperature and relative air humidity.
