19、ferences The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN 771-2:2003, Specification for masonry
20、 units Part 2: Calcium silicate masonry units EN 772-1, Methods of test for masonry units Part 1: Determination of compressive strength 3 Principle Calcium silicate masonry units are conditioned by immersion in water in a prescribed way and are then subjected to repeated cycles of freezing and thawi
21、ng. Damage is assessed visually. For samples where visual damage is apparent the compressive strength of the units can be compared with similar samples that have not been subjected to the freeze-thaw regime. 4 Symbols Rc is the reduction in strength (%); fn is the compressive strength of the sample
22、that is set aside, (N/mm2); ff is the compressive strength of the sample that is subjected to the freeze-thaw cycling, (N/mm2); N is the total number of freeze-thaw cycles. 5 Apparatus Freezing cabinet, of net effective volume at least five times that of the volume of the samples to be tested and wh
23、ich is capable of developing an even air temperature of -15 C in between 3 h and 5 h. 6 Sampling 6.1 Sampling The method of sampling shall be stated in the test report. The minimum number of specimens shall be as given in 6.2 below, but a larger minimum number may be specified in the product specifi
24、cation, in which case that larger number shall be used. 6.2 Specimens for freeze-thaw testing For units with a length 500 mm and/or height 300 mm, a total of three units is required from which representative portions may be cut in accordance with B.3 of EN 771-2:2003. DIN EN 772-18:2011-07 EN 772-18
25、:2011 (E) 5 For units with a length 500 mm and a height 300 mm, the test shall be carried out on at least six whole units or on six specimens each of which is obtained by cutting in accordance with B.3 of EN 771-2:2003. 6.3 Specimens for compressive strength testing Sufficient specimens of either ty
26、pe, in accordance with EN 772-1, shall be set aside and stored for compressive strength testing. 7 Procedure Mark any damage that may have been sustained by the specimens prior to the test. Immerse the specimens in water at 20 C 5 C oriented so that the longest dimension of each is in the vertical p
27、lane. Initially immerse to about one quarter of their height and in such a way that water can circulate freely on all sides. After 1 h, immerse the specimens to about half the height of the specimens and after a further 1 h to three-quarters of their height. After 24 h, immerse the specimens fully i
28、n water. After a further 24 h remove them from the water or drain the water and then commence the freezing cycle with the specimens in the same position. Regulate the air temperature in the freezing cabinet so that it drops gradually in 3 h to 5 h to -15 C. Maintain this temperature for at least 2 h
29、. After the freezing cycle, thaw the specimens by immersing them fully in water at a temperature of 20 C 5 C for at least 1 h. Subject the specimens to the number of freeze-thaw cycles corresponding to the freeze-thaw category specified by the manufacturer, as described above. Note any visible damag
30、e to the specimens under the following categories: loss of flatness, e.g. bulging of the surface of the specimens; cavities in excess of 5 mm diameter; cracking of the specimen (e.g. surface cracking). Ignore all previously marked damage. Evaluation of damage due to freezing and thawing shall be don
31、e only on the sides of the specimens that were not created by cutting. If the specimens do not exhibit any damage in any of the above-mentioned categories the testing may be terminated. When damage is noted, determine the compressive strength of the specimens that have been subjected to the freeze-t
32、haw cycles and of those which have been set aside (see Clause 6) in accordance with EN 772-1. 8 Evaluation of results Report any visual damage following the freeze thaw cycling. Calculate the reduction in compressive strength caused by the freeze-thaw cycling of the specimens where some or all were
33、damaged from the untreated specimens set aside (see 6.2) as follows: DIN EN 772-18:2011-07 EN 772-18:2011 (E) 6 (%)100nfncff-f=RIf the specimens do not exhibit any damage in any of the above mentioned categories and the testing is terminated Rcmay be taken as Rc 20 % (by proxy visual assessment of d
34、amages, without calculation) 9 Test report The test report shall include: a) name, title and date of issue of this European Standard; b) name of the organization that carried out the sampling and the method used; c) date of testing; d) type, origin and designation of the masonry unit by reference to
35、 EN 771-2 including whether facing or non-facing; e) number of specimens in the sample; f) date of delivery of the specimens to the testing laboratory; g) date of preparation of the specimens and the date of test; h) the total number of freeze thaw cycles to which the specimens were subjected; i) a
36、description of any visual damage, after freeze-thaw cycling, in accordance with Clause 7 or a statement that no damage has occurred; j) mean compressive strength of the specimens that have been subjected to freeze- thaw cycling, if necessary; k) mean compressive strength of the specimens that were s
37、et aside, if necessary; l) reduction in mean compressive strength, expressed as a percentage, to the nearest percent and whether the result was achieved by calculation or by proxy visual assessment of damages; m) remarks, if any. DIN EN 772-18:2011-07 EN 772-18:2011 (E) 7 Annex A (informative) Signi
38、ficant technical changes between this European standard and the previous edition The number of freeze thaw cycles that the specimen is subjected to is determined by the category of freeze thaw resistance that is declared by the manufacturer in EN 771-2. Previously all specimens had been subjected to 50 cycles. In addition if no specimens are damaged as a result of the freeze thaw cycling the weight loss is taken to be less than 20 % without measurement. DIN EN 772-18:2011-07
