Indian Standard
GLASS FIBRE BASE BITUMEN FELTS-
SPECIFICATION '
( First Revision )
@ BIS 1994
FOREWORD
This Indian Standard ( First Revision ) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards, after the
draft finalized by the Water-Proofing and Damp-Proofing Sectional Committee had been approved
by Civil Engineering Division Council.
Glass fibre bitumen felts are suitable for use for water-proofing and damp-proofing in buildings
and other situations where penetration of moisture is to be stopped. This standard specifies the
requirements for glass fibre base bitumen feIts. It is an adjunct to IS 1322 : 1993 Specification
for bitumen felts for water-proofing and damp-proofing (fourth revision ).
This is the first revision of the standard. In this standard testing methods to ascertain the physi-
cal properties of glass fibre tissue have been added. All references have also been updated to take
care of latest revision of the referred standards.
In the formulation of this standard due weightage has been given to international co-ordination
among the standards and practices prevailing in different countries in addition to relating it to
the practices in the field in this country.
The committee responsible for the formulation of this standard is given in Annex A.
For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with,
the final value, observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis, shall be
rounded off in accordance with IS 2 : 1960 Rules for rounding off numerical values ( revised ).
The number of significant places retained in the rounded off value should be the same as that of
the specified value in this standard.
