Significance and Use
5.1 Maintaining adequate tensile adhesion of EIFS and EIFS with drainage components to each other and to the substrate is essential for long term performance of the system.
5.2 The tensile-adhesion properties obtained by this test method are not purported to be representative of wind load or other structural and moisture related properties of the EIFS or EIFS with drainage wall assembly. Tensile-adhesion properties using this test method are used as one of the factors in evaluating substrates and to compare adhesives.
Scope
1.1 This test method evaluates the tensile-adhesion performance of an Exterior Insulation and Finish System (EIFS), EIFS with drainage, or individual components by Procedure A, Dry Conditioning and Testing of Specimens; or, if specified, Procedure B, Wet Conditioning and Testing of Specimens.
1.2 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other.
1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
1.4 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
