What is BS EN 514 – Determination of the strength of welded corners and T-joints about?

BS EN 514 is an international standard used for plastics that specifies the test methods and test procedures which helps in determining the strength of welded corners and T-joints that are made from unplasticized Poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) based profiles. BS EN 514 specifies a tensile bending method and a compression bending method for determining the failure stress of welded corners and welded T-joints made from unplasticized poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC-U) profiles. BS EN 514 is applicable to PVC-based profiles used for the fabrication of windows and doors
