Draft of Egyptian standard ES 1395 "Flexible sheets for waterproofing - Reinforced bitumen sheets for roof waterproofing - Definitions and characteristics"; (35 page(s), in Arabic)

This draft of Egyptian standard specifies definitions and characteristics for flexible reinforced bitumen sheets for which the intended use is roofing. This covers sheets used as top layers, intermediate layers and underlayers. It does not cover reinforced bitumen sheets for waterproofing used as underlays for discontinuous roofing.

This draft Standard does not cover waterproofing sheets which are intended to be used fully bonded under bituminous products (e.g. asphalt) directly applied at high temperature, specified by EN 14695. Worth mentioning is that this draft standard is technically identical with EN 13707/2013
