BS EN 13892-3:2014 PDF Download

BS EN 13892-3:2014 outlines a procedure for evaluating the wear resistance of cementitious screed materials. The focus of this standard is primarily on hard aggregate wearing screed materials, although it can also be applied to other types of screed materials and floor screed specimens. It should be noted, however, that synthetic resin screed materials are not suitable for testing using this method.

The standard provides a detailed methodology for preparing moulded specimens and conducting wear tests. The aim is to assess the ability of screed materials to withstand wear and tear, which is particularly important in high-traffic areas. By establishing the wear resistance of these materials through rigorous testing, construction professionals can make informed decisions regarding their suitability for various applications.

This standard plays a crucial role in ensuring the quality and durability of screed materials used in construction projects. By implementing the specified testing procedures outlined in BS EN 13892-3:2014, manufacturers and contractors can confidently assess the performance of different screed materials and select the most appropriate options for specific project requirements. Ultimately, this promotes the use of reliable and long-lasting screed materials in the construction industry.
