Standard EN SampleProducts and Systems for the Protection and Repair of Concrete Structures - Test Methods - Determination of Workability - Test for Flow of Grout or Mortar
Also Known As:
The standard BS EN 13395-2:2002 describes a method for determining the workability or consistence of flowing-grade hydraulic cement mortars, polymer modified hydraulic cement mortars, and polymer bound mortars. This method is specifically designed for high-flow grouts or mortars with a maximum aggregate size of 4 mm.
The purpose of this standard is to provide a consistent and reliable method for assessing the flow characteristics of these types of mortars, which are commonly used in the protection and repair of concrete structures. The workability or consistence of the grouts or mortars can significantly impact their application and performance, making accurate measurement essential for ensuring proper workability.
By following the procedures outlined in this standard, manufacturers and users of grouts or mortars can assess and compare the flow characteristics of different products. This information can help inform material selection, ensure compatibility with specific applications, and provide a basis for quality control in the production and use of these products.
