Precast Concrete Products: Classification of Glassfibre Reinforced Concrete Performance
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 15191 standard specifies the classification of glassfibre reinforced concrete (GRC) performance. This standard focuses on the material properties that need to be achieved in precast concrete products. The classification system outlined in the standard is essential for ensuring consistency and quality in GRC products.
The standard provides guidance on the various performance levels that GRC products should meet. It establishes criteria for properties such as compressive strength, flexural strength, water absorption, and freeze-thaw resistance. By defining these performance levels, the standard helps in ensuring that GRC products are fit for their intended use and can withstand different environmental conditions.
This standard is crucial for manufacturers, suppliers, and end-users of GRC products as it enables them to compare different materials and select the right product for specific applications. Compliance with DIN EN 15191 ensures that GRC products are manufactured to a consistent standard, giving confidence to the market and ensuring good performance and durability.
