Flexible Sheets for Waterproofing. Waterproofing of Concrete Bridge Decks and Other Concrete Surfaces Trafficable by Vehicles. Determination of the Resistance to Compaction of an Asphalt Layer
Also Known As:
The BS EN 14692:2017 standard outlines a test method for evaluating the ability of a bitumen sheet to withstand compaction of an asphalt layer.
The purpose of this standard is to provide a standardized method for assessing the resistance to compaction of bitumen sheets used for waterproofing concrete surfaces, specifically those that are accessible to vehicle traffic, such as concrete bridge decks. The resistance to compaction of the asphalt layer is an important characteristic to ensure the effectiveness and durability of the waterproofing system.
The test method described in this standard involves placing the bitumen sheet between two layers of asphalt and subjecting it to compaction by mechanical means. The resistance to compaction is then determined by evaluating the performance of the bitumen sheet under this stress. The results of this test can be used to assess the suitability and effectiveness of the bitumen sheet for its intended application in waterproofing concrete surfaces.
