Test Methods for Fibres in Concrete - Part 2: Effect on Concrete
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 14845-2 standard provides guidelines and procedures for evaluating the impact of fibres on the strength of concrete. Specifically, it focuses on determining the effect of both steel and polymer fibres on the residual flexural strength of a reference concrete.
The standard outlines the test method that should be followed to conduct the evaluation. It provides instructions regarding the type and proportion of fibres to be used, the manufacturing of test specimens with the inclusion of fibres, and the testing conditions including curing and specimen preparation.
The purpose of this standard is to obtain accurate and reliable results in assessing the influence of fibres on the mechanical properties of concrete. By systematically conducting these tests, it enables researchers, engineers, and industry professionals to have a standardized approach to evaluate the effect of fibres and make informed decisions regarding their application in concrete structures.
