1、PUBLISHED DOCUMENT PD CEN/TR 15177:2006 Testing the freeze-thaw resistance of concrete Internal structural damage ICS 91.080.40 PD CEN/TR 15177:2006 This Published Document was published under the authority of the Standards Policy and Strategy Committee on 30 November 2006 BSI 2006 ISBN 0 580 49652

2、X National foreword This Published Document was published by BSI. It is the UK implementation of CEN/TR 15177:2006. The UK participation in its preparation was entrusted by Technical Committee B/517, Concrete, to Subcommittee B/517/1, Concrete production and testing. A list of organizations represen

3、ted on B/517/1 can be obtained on request to its secretary. This publication is a Published Document (PD) and is not to be regarded as a British Standard and therefore should be used for guidance only. The original document was proposed as a European standard but at the draft for public comment (DPC

4、) stage the project status was changed to a CEN Report as it was not deemed suitable to be published as a European standard. The CEN Report was published so that research laboratories could evolve the test methods and gain some experience of the relevance of such tests to local materials. Therefore,

5、 the UK Committee B/517/1 has implemented CEN Report 15177:2006 as PD CEN/TR 15177:2006 but with the following comments. Whilst there are no performance values given in CEN/TR 15177, the originators of the tests have values they apply in practice and these are known to others. It is accepted that a

6、concrete satisfying these values is likely to perform well in extreme freeze/thaw conditions. However, in the UK there are many concretes that have been shown to perform adequately in the prevailing environmental conditions, but, if tested against these criteria, would fail by a substantial margin.

7、BSI Technical Committee Working Group B/517/1/30 considers that these test methods would not normally be appropriate for evaluating the performance of concrete for UK conditions.

13、f which is held by DIN. No existing European Standard is superseded. It is based on the Austrian Standard NORM B 3303 “Testing of Concrete“ and on the RILEM recommendation “Test methods of frost resistance of concrete“ of RILEM TC 176 IDC. These tests have since been developed by individual countrie

14、s. This document takes into account those developments. CEN/TR 15177:20064 Introduction Concrete structures exposed to the effects of freezing and thawing need to be durable, to have an adequate resistance to this action and, in cases such as road construction, to freezing and thawing in the presenc

15、e of de-icing agents. It is desirable, especially in the case of new constituents or new concrete compositions, to test for such properties. This also applies to concrete mixes, concrete products, precast concrete, concrete elements or concrete in situ. Many different test methods have been develope

16、d. No single test method can completely reproduce the conditions in the field in all individual cases. Nevertheless, any method should at least correlate to the practical situation and give consistent results. Such a test method may not be suitable for deciding whether the resistance is adequate in

17、a specific instance but will provide data of the resistance of the concrete to freeze-thaw-attack and freeze-thaw-attack in the presence of de-icing agents. If the concrete has inadequate resistance there are two types of concrete deterioration when a freeze-thaw attack occurs, internal structural d

18、amage and scaling. The three test methods in this document describe the testing for internal structural damage. The scaling is dealt with in prCEN/TS 12390-9. This document contains three different test methods, which are well proved in different parts of Europe. Always they produce consistent resul

19、ts. For that reason no single test method can be established as reference test method. In the case that two laboratories will test the same concrete, they have to agree to only one test method with the same measurement procedure. The application of limiting values will require the establishment of t

20、he correlation between laboratory results and field experience. Due to the nature of the freeze-thaw action, such correlation would have to be established in accordance with local conditions and still have to be done. CEN/TR 15177:20065 1 Scope This document specifies three test methods for the esti

21、mation of the freeze-thaw resistance of concrete with regard to internal structural damage. It can be used either to compare new constituents or new concrete compositions against a constituent or a concrete composition that is known to give adequate performance in the local environment or to assess

22、the test results against some absolute numerical values based on local experiences. Extrapolation of test results to assess different concrete i.e. new constituents or new concrete compositions requires an expert evaluation. NOTE Specification based on these test methods should take into account the

23、 behaviour of concrete under practical conditions. There is no established correlation between the results obtained by the three test methods. All tests will clearly identify poor and good behaviour, but they differ in their assessment of marginal behaviour. 2 Normative references The following refe
