Standard EN EN DEDetermination of the Bond Behaviour Between Reinforcing Bars and Autoclaved Aerated Concrete by the 'Push Out' Test
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 989 standard provides a comprehensive procedure for evaluating the bond behavior between reinforcing bars and autoclaved aerated concrete. The aim of this standard is to assess the quality control of the bond between these materials, rather than providing design values.
The testing method used in this standard is the "push out" test, which involves applying axial forces to a reinforced concrete specimen until the bond between the concrete and the reinforcing bars fails. The test provides valuable information about the bond strength and behavior, helping to ensure the structural integrity and performance of reinforced AAC elements.
It is important to note that this standard emphasizes that the test results should not be directly used for design purposes. Instead, the values obtained from the push out test can be used for quality control purposes, enabling manufacturers and builders to evaluate and improve the bond between reinforcing bars and AAC in their specific applications.
