Methods of Test for Ancillary Components for Masonry - Part 10: Determination of Load Capacity and Load Deflection Characteristics of Brackets
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 846-10 standard provides guidelines for testing the load capacity and load deflection characteristics of brackets used as ancillary components for masonry structures. The standard outlines the method for determining the maximum amount of load that a bracket can bear and the degree to which it deflects under this load. The brackets are typically fixed to a backing wall or frame structure and play a crucial role in providing stability and support to the masonry.
The standard establishes specific procedures for conducting the tests, including the selection of appropriate test equipment, calibration of the measuring instruments, and the application of the load to the brackets. The load capacity is determined by progressively increasing the load until failure occurs or until a predefined performance limit is reached. The load deflection characteristics are measured by applying a constant load and recording the deformation of the bracket over a specified period of time.
