MARINE PLYWOOD SPECIFICATION
( Second Revision )
ICS 79.060.10
BIS 2010
January 2010
Price Group 5
FOREWORD
This Indian Standard (Second Revision) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards, after the draft finalized
by the Wood and Other Lignocellulosic Products Sectional Committee had been approved by the Civil Engineering
Division Council.
Plywood used in construction, repair and maintenance of marine and river craft is required to withstand rigorous
conditions involving changes in temperature, humidity and alternate wetting and drying. In addition, they also
need to withstand attack by marine organisms. Plywood used for general purposes is found to be unsuitable for
such applications. The standard on marine plywood was first published in 1957. The method of manufacture of
marine plywood had been specifically stated in the standard so that the resulting plywood is capable of withstanding
the rigorous conditions which marine plywood may have to withstand.
The standard was first revised in 1976. In the first revision, details of methods of tests were omitted and crossreferences were given to the relevant methods of tests in IS 1734 (Parts 1 to 20) : 1983 Methods of test for
plywood.
This standard is based on the developments that have taken place and the experience gained in manufacture and
use of the product over the years, the following modifications have been made:
a)
Provision for the use of plantation timber species of poplar, eucalyptus and silver oak, which have been
found to be suitable for manufacture of marine plywood have been incorporated, keeping in view the
scarce availability of timber from natural forests;
b) An alternate accelerated test method for water resistance test has been incorporated; and
c) A new test requirement on wet bending strength has been introduced.
In addition this standard also incorporates the amendments to the earlier version of the standard.
This standard contains clause 5.2.3.4 which calls for agreement between the purchaser and the manufacturer.
A scheme of labelling environment friendly products to be known as ECO-Mark has been introduced at the
instance of the Ministry of Environment and Forests (MEF), Government of India. The ECO-Mark shall be
administered by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) under the BIS Act, 1986 as per the Resolution No. 71
dated 21 February 1991 and Resolution No. 425 dated 28 October 1992 published in the Gazette of the Government
of India. For a product to be eligible for ECO-Mark, it shall also carry the Standard Mark of the BIS besides
meeting additional environment friendly requirements. For this purpose, the Standard Mark of BIS would be a
single mark being a combination of the ISI Mark and the ECO logo. Requirements to be satisfied for a product to
qualify for the BIS Standard Mark for Eco friendliness will be optional. Manufacturing units will be free to opt
for ISI Mark alone also.
The ECO-Mark criteria are based on the Gazette Notification No. 170 dated 18 May 1996 for Wood Substitutes
as Environment Friendly Products published in the Gazette of the Government of India.
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 composition of the Committee responsible for the formulation of the standard is given in Annex D.
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.
