BS EN 13279-2:2014 PDF Download

BS EN 13279-2:2014 is a standard that provides test methods for gypsum binders and gypsum plasters. The standard is applicable to all types of gypsum binders and plasters that are covered under EN 13279-1. It sets out the reference procedures for conducting tests on these materials in order to determine their physical and mechanical properties.

The standard covers a range of test methods including determination of consistency, setting time, compressive strength, flexural strength, thermal expansion, and water absorption. These tests are crucial in assessing the quality and performance of gypsum binders and plasters, as they provide valuable information on their workability, strength, dimensional stability, and susceptibility to moisture.

BS EN 13279-2:2014 is an important standard for manufacturers, suppliers, and users of gypsum binders and plasters, as it ensures that consistent and reliable test methods are used to assess their properties. Compliance with this standard helps to ensure that gypsum binders and plasters meet the necessary requirements for their intended applications, whether it be in construction, interior decoration, or other industries where these materials are used.
