Flexible Sheets for Waterproofing - Reinforced Bitumen Sheets for Waterproofing of Concrete Bridge Decks and Other Trafficked Areas of Concrete - Definitions and Characteristics
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 14695 standard focuses on flexible sheets for waterproofing, specifically reinforced bitumen sheets, that are used for waterproofing concrete bridge decks and other areas of concrete that experience high traffic. The standard aims to provide guidance on the definitions and characteristics of these sheets, as well as their performance requirements.
The standard details the specific conditions that these waterproofing systems need to meet. It emphasizes the importance of the sheets being bonded to the concrete deck and overlaid with asphalt. This ensures that the waterproofing system effectively seals the concrete surface, preventing water ingress and protecting the structure from damage caused by moisture.
Moreover, the DIN EN 14695 standard provides test methods that should be used to verify the characteristics and performance of the reinforced bitumen sheets. These tests are essential for assessing the integrity and functionality of the waterproofing system. By specifying the appropriate testing procedures, the standard ensures that the sheets meet the required performance standards.
