DIN EN 252:2015-01 EN 252:2014(E)5 Introduction The method is primarily concerned with protection against microbial attack. However, it is also capable of being used in
26、 areas where a termite hazard exists. It should also be noted that microbial decay may alter the resistance of a stake to termite attack and that termite attack may obliterate evidence of microbial decay. This field method provides one criterion by which the effectiveness of a wood preservative prod
27、uct can be assessed in a ground contact situation (Use Class 4 according to EN 335). The main objective of the method described is to evaluate the effectiveness of a preservative relative to a reference material. For this reason permeable timbers are used throughout so that the protective efficacy o
28、f various retentions of wood preservative can be determined. NOTE Informative Annex A gives guidance for testing wood or wood based products in ground contact that have or have not been treated with a wood preservative. DINEN 252:2015-01EN 252:2014 (E) 6 1 Scope This European Standard specifies a fi
29、eld test method for evaluating the effectiveness of wood preservatives in a ground contact situation. Wood treated with a reference preservative is included for comparison. The protective effect of the test preservative is assessed in relation to the effect of a reference wood preservative applied b
30、y a specified treatment. 2 Principle Wooden stakes are treated with preservative solutions to give a range of preservative retentions. After drying and, if necessary, an appropriate fixation period, the stakes are partially buried in soil in selected test fields in the open. The stakes are regularly
31、 inspected and their condition compared with that of untreated controls and that of a group of stakes treated with a reference preservative both of which indicate the aggressiveness of the individual field. The different agents of attack and their respective intensities are recorded. 3 Wood specimen
32、s 3.1 Wood species Susceptible wood species that can be completely penetrated with preservative shall be chosen as follows: for every test the sapwood of Scots Pine (Pinus sylvestris (L), shall be used; it is recommended that a hardwood species of local importance is included if the preservative is
33、expected to be used in this type of wood; if desired other wood species may be incorporated in the test. 3.2 Wood quality The wood shall be straight-grained and free from knots, cracks, stain, decay, insect holes, reaction wood or other defects. Test stakes with a resinous appearance shall be avoide
34、d. The wood shall not have been water-stored, floated, chemically treated or steamed or dried at a temperature above 60 C. The Scots Pine sapwood shall show an average rate of growth of 2,5 to 10 annual rings per 10 mm. If additional wood species are to be used the range in the number of annual ring
35、s per 10 mm for each species shall be mentioned in the report. The test report shall also include the mean density and moisture content for the wood used in the preparation of the stakes. 3.3 Characteristics and dimension of stakes The boards shall be conditioned at (20 2) C, (65 5) % relative humid
36、ity. Stakes for test shall be cut from the test wood(s) as follows: DIN EN 252:2015-01 EN 252:2014 (E) 7 Each stake shall be planed to within the thickness tolerance indicated. When viewed at the cross-cut end, the rings shall be oriented tangentially to one of the 50 mm edges within the limits (0 2
37、5); The dimensions shall be: (500 2) mm x (50 1) mm x (25 0,5) mm when measured at a moisture content of (12 2) % (mass fraction). Each test shall be carried out with stakes of comparable density and any stakes in a test batch which have densities outside the range of 15 % of the mean density shall
38、be rejected. Additional stakes of different dimensions may also be included in the tests. 3.4 Number of Stakes At least 10 stakes per field for each wood preservative and retention shall be tested. A greater number of stakes shall be treated so that stakes with deviating retentions can be rejected (
39、5.3). Additional stakes may also be included for chemical analysis, to aid determination of retentions and/or penetration/distribution (see 5.3). To assess the virulence of the field conditions a series of at least 10 untreated control stakes shall be included in each field (see Clause 7). Include i
40、n each field at least two series of 10 standard reference stakes of Scots Pine treated according to 5.2 with a reference preservative (see Clause 6). 3.5 Labelling of stakes Each stake shall be labelled with an inert, long-lasting label or tag. NOTE A map of the position of each stake within the sit
41、e is desirable. 4 Sample of wood preservative The sample shall be representative of the wood preservative to be tested. It shall be stored and handled in accordance with written recommendations from the manufacturer. It is recommended to chemically quantify the active ingredients content. 5 Conditio
42、ning and treatment of the stakes 5.1 Conditioning The stakes should be conditioned in conditions to reach constant mass at (20 2) C and (65 5) %RH. The stakes shall be air-dried indoors, to a moisture content at which a good penetration of the wood preservative can be obtained. For vacuum / pressure
43、 processes the moisture content of the specimens shall be (12 2) % (mass fraction). 5.2 Treating process For the reference stakes and unless otherwise specified for the test stakes a full-cell process is to be used. A typical full-cell process has an initial vacuum which shall be less than 10 kPa (0
44、,10 bar) and maintained for at DIN EN 252:2015-01 EN 252:2014 (E) 8 least 30 min. Pressure of at least 1 MPa (10 bar) shall be applied for at least 90 min. Complete records of treatment shall be made for each charge. 5.3 Determination of retention of wood preservative product Calculate the volume of
45、 each stake before treatment from its dimensions (see Clause 3). If shaped to a point before treatment this shall be taken into account in the calculation. Determine the mass of each stake by weighing to the nearest 0,5 g. After treatment, allow the stake to drain for several minutes. Reweigh each s
46、take to the nearest 0,5 g to determine the mass of treatment solution absorbed. Calculate the retention value of each stake from the mass of treatment solution absorbed, the concentration of the treating solution and the calculated stake volume. Express the retention of the wood preservative product
47、 as kilograms per cubic metre of wood. Calculate the mean retention for each series of test stakes. Stakes with individual retentions deviating by more than 10 % from the mean value shall be rejected. 5.4 Range of preservative retention Test each preservative with at least three and preferably five
48、different retention levels. These different levels shall be achieved by using fresh preservative solutions at different dilutions and without varying the treatment conditions. Use a fresh solution at each dilution; the dilution of a quantity of solution which has been used already may be unsatisfactory because preferential absorption may have occurred during the previous treatment schedule. 5.5 Post treatment conditioning of stakes For those products requiring a fixation period the recommendations of the wo
