Determination of the Bond Behaviour between Reinforcing Steel and Autoclaved Aerated Concrete by the Beam Test - Part 2: Long Term Test
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 12269-2 standard outlines a method for assessing the long term bond behavior between reinforcing bars and autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC). The standard is applicable to prefabricated reinforced components conforming to prEN 12602.
The purpose of this test method is to determine the long term bond strength (fb,l) between the reinforcing bars and the AAC. The test is conducted using a beam test, and the resulting values are used to evaluate the performance of different combinations of AAC type, bar shape, and corrosion protection systems.
By performing the test for a range of material combinations, this standard allows for the comparison of bond behavior under different conditions. The test results provide insight into the long term performance of the bond between reinforcing steel and AAC, and can be used to ensure the structural integrity and durability of reinforced components made with AAC.
In essence, DIN EN 12269-2 provides a standardized procedure for evaluating the bond behavior of reinforcing steel and autoclaved aerated concrete in the long term, enabling manufacturers and engineers to make informed decisions regarding material selection and design.
