Flexible Sheets for Waterproofing - Waterproofing of Concrete Bridge Decks and Other Concrete Surfaces Trafficable by Vehicles - Determination of Crack Bridging Ability
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 14224 standard focuses on flexible sheets used for waterproofing concrete surfaces that are subjected to vehicle traffic, such as concrete bridge decks. Specifically, the standard aims to determine the crack bridging ability of reinforced bitumen sheets that are commonly used in these waterproofing systems.
The standard outlines a test method that is used to evaluate the crack bridging ability of these sheets. The test measures the ability of the sheets to withstand cracking and maintain their waterproofing properties when subjected to various loads and stresses caused by vehicular traffic. This information is crucial for ensuring the durability and longevity of the waterproofing system.
By providing a standardized test method, DIN EN 14224 helps manufacturers assess and compare the crack bridging ability of different flexible sheets intended for use in waterproofing concrete surfaces. This allows customers to make informed decisions when selecting the most suitable products for their specific applications.
