  1. Determined as a minimum mean value in accordance with BS EN ISO 10319:1996.
  2. Determined as a lower bound using standard extrapolation techniques to creep rupture data obtained following the test procedure in BS EN ISO 13431:1999 extended to 120 year design life using the Stepped Isochronous Method. All tests carried out on samples of the Basetex finished product.
  3. All dimensions are typical unless otherwise stated
