Standard EN SampleProducts and Systems for the Protection and Repair of Concrete Structures - Test Methods - Determination of Injectability and Splitting Test
Also Known As:
BS EN 1771:2004 is a standard that outlines the test methods for products and systems used in the protection and repair of concrete structures. The standard focuses specifically on two aspects: the determination of injectability and the splitting test.
Regarding injectability, the standard provides a method for measuring the ability of a product to flow through a capillary network. This is achieved by injecting the product into cylindrical mortar samples and measuring the splitting strength of these samples. The splitting strength is an indication of the product's adhesion to concrete.
It is important to note that this standard assumes the use of a premixed product that can be poured into a container of a specific size. However, alternative methods of injection can be used as long as they allow for accurate measurement of pressure.
