Gypsum Binders and Gypsum Plasters - Part 2: Test Methods
Also Known As:
DIN EN 13279-2 is a standard that specifies the test methods for evaluating gypsum binders and gypsum plasters. It serves as a reference guide for conducting tests on these materials in accordance with the requirements outlined in EN 13279-1. The test methods described in this standard are meant to ensure the consistent and accurate evaluation of gypsum binders and plasters.
The standard provides guidance on various aspects of testing, including the preparation of test samples, measurement techniques, and criteria for assessing performance. It covers a wide range of tests, such as determining the consistency, setting time, compressive strength, and water absorption characteristics of the binders and plasters.
By adhering to the test methods outlined in DIN EN 13279-2, manufacturers and users of gypsum binders and plasters can have confidence in the quality and performance of these materials. The standard facilitates harmonization and comparability of test results across different laboratories and enables the determination of material properties that are crucial for their application in construction and other industries.
