Fibres for concrete - Part 1: Steel fibres - Definitions, specifications and conformity
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 14889-1 standard provides definitions, specifications, and conformity requirements for steel fibres used in concrete. The standard applies to various types of concrete structures, including both structural and non-structural applications such as sprayed concrete, flooring, precast elements, and repair work.
The standard ensures that steel fibres used in concrete meet specific quality criteria to ensure optimal performance and durability. It specifies requirements for the dimensions, composition, and mechanical properties of the fibres. This includes parameters such as tensile strength, aspect ratio, and shape characteristics.
Additionally, the standard addresses the assessment of conformity, ensuring that manufacturers comply with the defined specifications. This involves testing and evaluation procedures to verify the compliance of the steel fibres with the criteria set in the standard.
