This European Standard shall be given the status of a national sta
13、ndard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by August 2009, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by August 2009. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights.
14、 CEN and/or CENELEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. This document supersedes EN 12504-1:2000. It is recognized good practice to include measurement of density prior to the determination of compressive strength, as a check on compaction of the concrete. In
15、 drafting the standard consideration has been given to the results of the research programme, part funded by the EC under the Measurement and Testing Programme, contract MAT1-CT94-0043. The standard includes simple guidance on the process of taking cores, but does not consider a sampling plan. It al
16、so provides procedures for visual examination and compressive strength testing, but not the interpretation of the results. This standard is one of a series concerned with testing concrete. This series EN 12504 includes the following parts: EN 12504 Testing concrete in structures Part 1: Cored specim
17、ens - Taking, examining and testing in compression; Part 2: Non-destructive testing - Determination of rebound number; Part 3: Determination of pull-out force; Part 4: Determination of ultrasonic pulse velocity.

24、 Principle Cores extracted using a core drill are carefully examined, prepared by grinding or capping and tested in compression using standard procedures. 4 Apparatus 4.1 Core drill, equipment capable of extracting cores from the hardened concrete to the dimensions set out in 5.4 to the tolerances s
25、et out in 7.3 4.2 Compression testing machine, conforming to EN 12390-4 and related to the size of specimens and their expected failure load NOTE Concrete compression testing machines conforming to EN 12390-4 may need to be adapted to test cores. (see the Foreword of EN 12390-4:2000). BS EN 12504-1:
26、2009 EN 12504-1:2009 (E) 5 4.3 Balance or scale, capable of determining the mass of the core, as tested, to an accuracy of 0,1 % of the mass 4.4 Callipers and/or rules, capable of measuring the dimensions of the core and the steel reinforcement to an accuracy of 1 %. 4.5 Gauge, capable of establishi
27、ng that the relevant flatness of the specimen is within the requirements of 7.3.a) 4.6 Squares and gauges (or other means), capable of establishing that the perpendicularity and straightness of specimens are within the requirements of 7.3.b) and 7.3.c) 5 Taking cores 5.1 General The ratio of the max
28、imum aggregate size in the concrete to the diameter of the core has a significant influence on the measured strength when it approaches values greater than about 1:3. It is essential that full consideration is given to the aims of the testing and the interpretation of the data, before deciding to dr
29、ill cores. NOTE Informative Annex A provides information on the effect of aggregate size and core diameter on the strength of core specimens. 5.2 Location Consider any structural implications resulting from taking a core prior to drilling. NOTE Cores should preferably be taken at points away from jo
30、ints or edges of the concrete element and where there is little or no reinforcement. 5.3 Drilling Unless otherwise specified, drill the cores perpendicular to the surface in such a manner as not to damage the cores. Keep the drill rigidly positioned during coring. 5.4 Length of cores In deciding the
31、 length of cores to be taken for strength testing, take into account: a) the diameter of the core; b) the possible method of adjustment; c) whether comparison is to be made with cube strength or cylinder strength. 5.5 Marking and identification Immediately after drilling, clearly and indelibly mark
32、each core. Record its location and orientation within the element from which it has been drilled. If a core is subsequently cut to produce a number of specimens, mark each specimen to indicate its position and orientation within the original core. BS EN 12504-1:2009 EN 12504-1:2009 (E) 6 5.6 Reinfor
33、cement Drilling through reinforcement shall be avoided wherever possible. Ensure that cores for determination of compressive strength do not contain any reinforcing bars in, or close to, the direction of the longitudinal axis. If transverse reinforcement is encountered, record its diameter and posit
34、ion in mm. 6 Examination 6.1 Visual inspection Carry out a visual examination of the cored specimen to identify any abnormalities. If required, an estimation of the cores voidage shall be made by reference to standard documentation or by comparison to a reference concrete of known voidage. 6.2 Measu
35、rements Measurements shall be as follows: a) core diameter dm shall be measured to within 1 %, from pairs of measurements taken at right angles, at the half and quarter points of the length of the core. b) core length, the maximum and minimum lengths shall be measured to 1 % as received and the leng
36、th after completion of the end preparation, in accordance with Clause 7. c) reinforcement, the diameter size of any reinforcement shall be measured and the position, measuring from the centre of the exposed bar to the end(s) and/or axis of the core, both as received and after end preparation. Measur
37、ement shall be to the nearest mm. If it is required to determine the density of the core, this shall be determined in accordance with the procedures given in EN 12390-7 prior to capping the ends of the core. NOTE All measurements should be recorded. 7 Preparation of cores 7.1 General Prepare the end
38、s of cores for compression tests in accordance with Annex A of EN 12390-3:2009. 7.2 Length diameter/ratios The preferred length diameter/ratios are: a) 2,0 if the strength result is to be compared to cylinder strength; b) 1,0 if the strength result is to be compared to cube strength. 7.3 Tolerances
39、Prepare the specimen to within the following tolerances: BS EN 12504-1:2009 EN 12504-1:2009 (E) 7 a) for flatness, the tolerance for the end surfaces prepared by grinding or capping, using high alumina cement or sulphur, shall conform to EN 12390-1. b) for perpendicularity, the tolerance for the pre
40、pared ends, with respect to the side, shall comply with EN 12390-1. c) for straightness, the tolerance on the generating line of the core shall be 3 % of the average core diameter. NOTE If other smaller diameter cores are tested then the tolerances above should be considered with regard to their ade
41、quacy and narrowed if necessary: for example, reduced in proportion to the actual specimen diameter to l00 mm. 8 Compression test 8.1 Storage Record the storage condition(s) of the specimen. If it is required to test the specimen in a saturated condition, soak in water at (20 2) C for at least 48 h
42、before testing. 8.2 Testing Carry out the testing in accordance with EN 12390-3 using a compression testing machine conforming to EN 12390-4. (see the Note to 4.2). Do not test cores with cracked, hollow, or loose caps. Remove any loose sand or other material on the surface of the specimen. If the s
43、pecimen is to be tested whilst it is still wet, remove any surface water. Record the surface moisture condition (wet/dry) of the specimen at the time of test. 9 Expression of results Determine the compressive strength of each specimen by dividing the maximum load by the cross-sectional area, calcula
44、ted from the average diameter and express the result to the nearest 0,1 MPa ( N/mm). 10 Test report The report shall include: a) description and identification of the test specimen; b) estimated maximum size of aggregate; c) date of coring; d) visual inspection, noting any abnormalities identified;
45、e) reinforcement (when appropriate): diameter, in mm, position(s) in mm; f) method used for the preparation of specimen(cutting, grinding, or capping); BS EN 12504-1:2009 EN 12504-1:2009 (E) 8 g) length and diameter of the core as received; h) length/diameter ratio of prepared specimen; i) surface m
