16、a, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom. EN 446:2007 (E) 4 Introduction In post-tensioned prestressed concrete construction, the grouting of tendons is an important operation. The intention of this European Standard is to provide a specification for grouting, compliance with which will sati

17、sfy the requirements in prEN 13670. The main function of grouting is to Provide protection to the prestressing steel against corrosion; Provide a bond between the prestressing steel and the ducts where required for the design of the structure; Allow the transfer of compressive stresses in the struct

18、ure in a direction transverse to the internal tendons; Fill all voids where water may accumulate and cause frost damage. The testing regimes anticipated by this European Standard include three levels: (1) Initial type and audit testing in accordance with EN 447; (2) Suitability testing for confirmat

19、ion of the selected grout for a specific project in accordance with this standard; (3) Inspection during the production of grout on a specific project in accordance with this standard. The test methods for each of the regimes are given in EN 445. EN 446:2007 (E) 5 System of CEN and EOTA documents as

26、d internally or externally to the concrete structure 3.4 specialist contractor contractor or construction enterprise which carries out grouting of tendons 4 Documentation 4.1 Execution specification Before starting any part of the grouting works, the execution specification relevant to that part of

27、the works shall be complete and available. The following items shall be included in the execution specification: reference to this European standard; EN 446:2007 (E) 7 reference to other relevant European standards; reference to ETAs for the post-tensioning kit; reference to other relevant national

28、regulations and standards; information and requirements for the particular project prepared to supplement and qualify the requirements of the above listed documents; drawings and other technical documents needed for the execution. In addition where relevant, procedures shall be established for: maki

29、ng alterations to previously agreed requirements; distribution, the filing and recording of technical documents used for the works. 4.2 Quality plan If a quality control procedure for grouting works is required by the execution specification, it shall be available at the site. 4.3 Execution document

30、ation The specialist contractor shall keep available on site written method statements covering materials, equipment, grouting procedures and inspection all adapted to the extent and complexity of the project. Provisions for the case of unusually low or high temperatures or delayed grouting, if like

31、ly to occur during the project duration, shall be specified. The specialist contractor shall have shop drawings showing the position and details of the inlets and outlets, and the details of the sealing of the tendon anchorages. The specialist contractor shall keep available on site documented recor

32、ds of: materials and grout used; initial type testing according to EN 447; suitability testing according to this European standard; results of the project specific grouting tests, if specified. The specialist contractor shall keep documented records of the conformity of the materials, equipment, gro

33、ut, grouting operations, and inspection with this standard and the execution specification according to Table 2, Table 3 and Table 4. These records shall be kept for the duration, as required by national provisions. Any eventual corrective actions taken shall also be recorded. If special documentati

34、on beyond the requirements of this European standard is required for grouting works, the type and extent of the documentation shall be stated in the execution specification. 5 Materials The individual materials and the grout to be used shall comply with EN 447. EN 446:2007 (E) 8 6 Grout assessment 6

35、.1 Suitability testing The suitability of the grout shall be assessed for each project sufficiently in advance of grouting operations, to enable any necessary adjustments to be made in the use of the materials, equipment or personnel. The extent of suitability testing and number of tests shall be in

36、 accordance with Table 1. Suitability testing may be waived for structures in Inspection Class 2 subject to there being documented testing during production in accordance with EN 447.

The grout assessmen

39、t shall consist of the preparation of the grout using the materials, equipment and personnel proposed for the project, and testing in accordance with EN 445. The preparation of the grout shall be carried out under the conditions expected on site for the project. The assessed grout properties shall c

40、omply with EN 447. The range of acceptable temperatures specified for the particular grout shall be compatible with the expected conditions of the project. 6.2 Project specific grouting tests If required by the execution specification, project specific grouting tests on tendons in representative for

41、ms of the project shall be performed. NOTE Such tests should be planned and carried out well in advance of the site operations. Such project specific grouting tests may be advisable, e.g. when tendon geometry and details are specified on the project for which no prior experience for successful grout

42、ing is available. Experience has shown that full-scale tests of grout and grouting procedures can be valuable to prove adequacy. EN 446:2007 (E) 9 7 Equipment 7.1 General Grouting equipment shall consist of a mixer and a pump with all the necessary connection hoses, valves, measuring devices for wat

43、er, cement, admixtures and additions and testing equipment as required to perform the grouting of the project. The grouting equipment shall be such that the ducts can be filled without interruption and at the anticipated speed. Grouting equipment shall include a storage reservoir if required for con

44、tinuous filling of the tendons on the project. Such storage reservoirs shall have an agitator to keep the grout moving continually before it is pumped into the ducts. The grouting equipment shall be compatible with the post-tensioning kit provided for the project. 7.2 Mixer The mixing equipment shal

45、l be capable of producing grout, which possesses an even distribution of cement, and an even dispersal of admixtures, additions, if any, and water. The mixed grout shall contain no cement lumps as confirmed with the sieve test of EN 445. The mixed grout shall comply with the requirements of EN 447.

46、7.3 Pump The pump shall be capable to provide a continuous flow of grout and to maintain the anticipated pressure for grouting. It shall be equipped with a pressure gauge and means to prevent unsafe pressure during grouting. The pump shall be constructed in such a way as to prevent introduction of a

47、ir, oil or other foreign substances into the grout. NOTE 1 Limiting the grout pressure serves to: (a) prevent blow-outs of hoses, inlets and outlets; (b) prevent damage to the concrete structure; (c) protect the equipment and valves from damage; (d) protect the operators. NOTE 2 The use of a pump wi

48、th a variable output gives the advantage that it can be adapted to the requirements of ducts of different diameters. 7.4 Hoses The diameter and rated pressure capacity of the grout hoses shall be compatible with the pump output, the assumed maximum pressure and the length needed. EN 446:2007 (E) 10

49、7.5 Inlet connections The connections of the grout hoses to the inlets of the ducts shall be leak tight. NOTE 1 Narrow openings in hose connectors or inlet connections, through which the grout must pass, should be avoided since the resulting pressure build-up can increase the risk of bleeding which in turn may lead to blockage. NOTE 2 A pressure gauge should be mounted at the grout inlet if the hose length is greater than 30 m. In the event of sudden and abnormal pressure increase, an additional pressure gauge located at the grout
