Building and Civil Engineering Sealants - Determination of Resistance to Compression
Also Known As:
The DIN EN ISO 11432 standard outlines a procedure for evaluating the resilience of sealants used in building and civil engineering applications. Specifically, the standard focuses on determining the sealants' resistance to compression. This is an important factor to consider as sealants are frequently subjected to pressure and compression in these environments.
The standard provides guidelines for conducting tests to measure the pressure resilience of the sealants. The procedure involves applying a specified amount of pressure to the sealant and assessing its ability to withstand the compression without failure or significant loss of its sealing properties. The test setup, equipment, and conditions are also defined in the standard to ensure consistency and accuracy across different testing environments.
