Products and Systems for the Protection and Repair of Concrete Structures - Test Methods - Determination of Creep under Sustained Tensile Load for Synthetic Resin Products (PC) for the Anchoring of Reinforcing Bars
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 1544 standard outlines a test method for determining the creep behavior of synthetic resin products used for anchoring reinforcing bars in concrete structures. The test involves subjecting a rebar anchored in a concrete block to a sustained tensile load. The purpose of the test is to evaluate the product's ability to withstand and hold the load over time.
The standard specifies that the test should be conducted under both standard conditions and maximum service temperature conditions recommended by the manufacturer. This ensures that the product's performance is assessed in different environmental conditions.
It is important to note that this standard only applies to synthetic resin products or hybrid synthetic resin/hydraulic cement products. It excludes products used as grout for prestressing tendons in concrete.
