24、ce of fresh mortar (by flow table) 3 Principle The workable life of a sample of fresh mortar, initially brought to a defined flow value, is measured by the time in minutes at which it reaches a defined limit of stiffness or workability during a defined type test. 4 Apparatus 4.1 Apparatus for Method
25、 A Workable life of general purpose mortar 4.1.1 A weighing instrument, preferably with a tare device, reading to at least 15 kg with graduations of not greater than 100 g. 4.1.2 Disposable, rigid and open topped moulds or containers with an internal diameter of not less than 75 mm and 50 mm to 100
26、mm high. 4.1.3 A stop clock. 4.1.4 A penetration rod, consisting of a round brass rod, approximately 5 mm in diameter and with a total length of approximately 65 mm, its lower end enlarged to a diameter of 6,175 mm 0,025 mm over a length of 25 mm 0,25 mm and with the penetrating face flat at right a
27、ngles to the length of the rod. 4.1.5 A loosely fitting brass washer, approximately 20 mm in external diameter, rests on the stop formed at the change in diameter of the rod. The rod is held vertically in a device such as a lever type drill stand that enables it to be lowered vertically in a control
28、led and steady manner over a distance of at least 40 mm (see Figure 1). 4.1.6 A palette knife. 4.1.7 A trowel. 4.2 Apparatus for Method B Workable life of thin-layer mortar 4.2.1 A flow table in accordance with EN 1015-3. 4.2.2 A trowel. 4.2.3 A palette knife. 4.3 Apparatus for Method C Correction t
29、ime of thin-layer mortar 4.3.1 Masonry units of the material to be used in practice as substrate for the actual thin-layer mortar. 4.3.2 A weighing instrument, accurate to 0,1 % of the mass of the weighed masonry unit. 4.3.3 A ventilated oven, capable of maintaining temperatures of 105 C 5 C, 70 C 5
30、 C and 60 C 5 C respectively. 4.3.4 A trowel. EN 1015-9:1999 + A1:2006 (E) 5 4.3.5 A palette knife. 4.3.6 A storage chamber capable of maintaining a temperature of 20 C 2 C and a relative humidity of 65 % 5 %. 5 Sampling, preparation and storage of test samples The fresh mortar for this test shall h
31、ave a minimum volume of 1,5 l or at least 1,5 times the quantity needed to perform the test, whichever is the greater, and shall be obtained either by reduction of the bulk test sample (see EN 1015-2) using a sample divider or by quartering or by preparation from dry constituents and water in the la
32、boratory. The flow value of the mortar in the bulk test sample shall be determined in accordance with EN 1015-3 and reported. Laboratory mixed samples shall, before testing, be brought to a defined flow value as specified in EN 1015-2. Ready to use mortars (factory-made wet mortars which are retarde
33、d), and pre-batched air-lime/sand wet mortars when not gauged with hydraulic binders, shall be tested within their specified workable life. The length of mixing period shall be measured from the moment all constituents are introduced into the mixer. Before testing, the batch shall be gently stirred
34、by hand using a trowel or palette knife in 5 s to 10 s to counteract any false setting etc., but without any additional mixing of the batch. Any deviation from the mixing procedure shall be noted. Two test samples shall be tested. 6 Method A Workable life of general purpose mortar 6.1 General The wo
35、rkable life of the fresh mortar is measured by the time in minutes at which it reaches a defined limit of resistance to penetration of a standard rod forced into it. 6.2 Procedure Fill sufficient moulds with test mortar and any control mix to provide adequate area of surface for the required number
36、of penetrations of the rod. Fill each mould in about 10 increments, minimizing excess mortar to be struck off, and tapping the mould on the bench four times after each increment. Strike off the surface plane and level with the top of the mould using a palette knife. Store the filled moulds in air at
37、 a temperature of 20 C 2 C and a relative humidity of not less than 95 %, e.g. in a sealed polyethylene bag. Place a mould on the scale under the penetration rod so that the portion of the sample surface immediately beneath the rod is at least 20 mm from the rim of the mould or from the position of
38、any previous penetrations. Adjust the tare device or record the mass of the filled mould. By means of the lever on the drill stand, lower the penetration rod slowly into the sample until the loose washer just touches the surface (see Figure 1). Note the reading of the scale in kilograms. Correct thi
39、s reading, if necessary, for the mass of the filled mould, and then divide it by 3 to express the resistance to penetration in N/mm2. For a non-retarded mortar measure the resistance to penetration at intervals of 15 min, starting at 30 min before the declared workable life, until it exceeds the pre
40、scribed limit of resistance (see 6.3). EN 1015-9:1999 + A1:2006 (E) 6 For retarded mortars, check the penetration intermittently, at convenient times, until the resistance starts to increase then proceed as described above. 6.3 Calculation and expression of results Measure the workable life from the
41、 completion of either the addition of water to the dry constituents, or the addition of cement or gypsum to a wet mix of lime and/or sand as follows. Determine the time in minutes, rounded to the nearest minute, to give the resistance to penetration of 0,5 N/mm2by interpolation of the results immedi
42、ately below and above this figure. Calculate the mean value from the individual values of each mortar test sample, all values rounded to the nearest minute. The mean value is the workable life of the mortar. 7 Method B Workable life of thin-layer mortar 7.1 General The workable life is measured by t
43、he time in minutes at which the flow value of the mortar differs by 30 mm from the initial flow value determined 10 min after mixing the batch. 7.2 Procedure Determine the flow value, in accordance with clause 6 of EN 1015-3:1998 at intervals of 15 min. During the test period keep the mortar in a bu
44、cket, covered with a moist cloth, and stored in air at a temperature of 20 C 2 C. Before each test the mortar mix may be given an additional mixing by hand. 7.3 Calculation and expression of results Determine the time in minutes, rounded to the nearest minute and measured from the time of completion
45、 of the mixing, that the flow value of the mortar differs by 30 mm from the initial flow value determined 10 min after mixing, by interpolation of the results immediately below and above this figure. Calculate the mean value from the individual values of each mortar test sample, all values rounded t
46、o the nearest minute. The mean value is the workable life of the mortar. 8 Method C Correction time of thin-layer mortar 8.1 Principle The correction time is measured by the time in minutes at which 50 % of the contact surface of a cube, placed on a layer of mortar applied on the specified masonry u
47、nit substrate, and then removed, is covered with adhering mortar. The method is not applicable where perforated masonry units are being used. 8.2 Procedure Cut cubes with dimensions 50 mm 50 mm 50 mm from the specified masonry units ensuring that the face to be used as the contact face is one from t
48、he original bed face. Before performing the test, dry the prescribed masonry units and cubes in an oven at the temperature shown in Table 1.

Then condition the masonry units by storage in air of temperature 20 C 2 C and 65 % 5 % relative humidity for two days. Carry out the test at an air temperature of 20 C 2 C
