Products and Systems for the Protection and Repair of Concrete Structures - Test Methods: Determination of Thermal Compatibility - Part 1: Freeze-Thaw Cycling with De-Icing Salt Immersion
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 13687-1 standard focuses on the assessment of thermal compatibility for products and systems used in the protection and repair of concrete structures. It consists of five parts, with this being the first part. The specific aspect evaluated in this method is the effect of freeze-thaw thermal shock cycling when immersed in a saturated de-icing salt solution.
The standard applies to various repair products and systems, including grouts, mortars, concretes, and surface protection systems. These may be based on CC (calcium chloride), PCC (potassium chloride), or PC (sodium chloride) binders.
The purpose of this standard is to determine the products and systems' resistance to the damaging effects of freeze-thaw cycles combined with exposure to de-icing salt. This testing method ensures that the materials used for repair and protection of concrete structures can withstand harsh winter conditions commonly experienced in areas where de-icing salts are used on roads and pavements.
