Standard EN SampleProducts and Systems for the Protection and Repair of Concrete Structures - Test Methods - Determination of Thermal Compatibility - Freeze-Thaw Cycling with De-Icing Salt Immersion
Also Known As:
BS EN 13687-1:2002 is a standard that focuses on assessing the thermal compatibility of products and systems used for the protection and repair of concrete structures. This particular part of the standard deals with the determination of thermal compatibility through freeze-thaw cycling with de-icing salt immersion.
The purpose of this test method is to measure the effects of freeze-thaw thermal shock cycling, specifically by immersing the repair products or systems in a saturated de-icing salt solution. The test is applicable to different types of repair products and systems, such as grouts, mortars, concretes, and surface protection systems.
The standard is specifically suitable for products and systems based on common binders like CC (cementitious composites), PCC (polymer cement concretes), and PC (polymer concretes). By subjecting the repair products or systems to the freeze-thaw cycling with de-icing salt immersion, the standard aims to evaluate their performance and compatibility in concrete structures.
