Flexible Sheets for Waterproofing - Waterproofing of Concrete Bridge Decks and Other Concrete Surfaces Trafficable by Vehicles - Determination of Resistance to Dynamic Water Pressure after Damage by Pre-Treatment
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 14694 standard focuses on the evaluation of the resistance to dynamic water pressure after damage by pre-treatment for flexible sheets used for waterproofing on concrete bridge decks and other concrete surfaces that are trafficable by vehicles. The standard outlines a specific test method for determining the ability of these sheets or sheet systems to withstand impact puncturing.
The purpose of the test is to assess the durability and effectiveness of the waterproofing system after undergoing pre-treatment, which may include processes such as surface roughening or mechanical damage. It aims to simulate real-world conditions where the waterproofing material could experience damage during construction or maintenance activities.
The test method outlined in the standard involves subjecting the sheet or sheet system to dynamic water pressure after the pre-treatment procedure. The resistance to impact puncturing is evaluated by the ability of the material to withstand the pressure without allowing water penetration.
