Performance Test for Prefabricated Reinforced Components Under Transversal Load of Autoclaved Aerated Concrete or Lightweight Aggregate Concrete with Open Structure
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 1356 standard provides a detailed description of the performance test for prefabricated reinforced components made of autoclaved aerated concrete or lightweight aggregate concrete with an open structure. The purpose of this standard is to determine the mechanical performance of these components under transversal load.
The standard outlines the specific parameters that need to be measured during the test. These include the midspan deflection at different load levels, the cracking load, the ultimate load, the position of fracture, and the shape of fracture.
The test is conducted by placing the component, such as a floor slab, roof slab, wall slab, or lintel, in a horizontal position and supporting it at both ends. It is then loaded with two vertical line loads at the outer quarter points of the span until it collapses.
By conducting this test, the standard aims to assess the deflection and cracking behavior of the components and determine their load-bearing capacity. This information is crucial for ensuring the structural integrity and safety of these prefabricated reinforced components.
