Methods of Testing Cement - Part 7: Methods of Taking and Preparing Samples of Cement
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 196-7 standard provides guidelines for selecting and preparing representative samples of cement for testing purposes. This standard is applicable to various situations, including evaluating the conformity of a cement with a standard, checking the delivery or lot against a standard or contractual specifications, and assessing the quality of products before, during, or after delivery.
The standard outlines the equipment to be used and the methods to be followed when taking samples of cement. It covers all types of cements defined by European Standards, regardless of their storage or transportation methods. This includes cements stored in silos, bags, canisters, drums, or any other packaging, as well as those transported in bulk using road vehicles, railway wagons, ships, and so on.
It is important to note that this standard can also be applied, by mutual agreement between parties, for acceptance inspections of non-standardized hydraulic binders.
