11、red by Technical Committee CEN/TC 104 “Concrete and related products”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by January 2011, and conflicting nation
12、al standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by January 2011. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN and/or CENELEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. This document has been
13、prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive(s). This standard is based on the results from the EU-project “Testing-SCC“ under the 5thFrame Programme (GRD2-2000-30024/G6RD-CT-2001-00580).
14、 Owing to its significant advantages in the improvement of construction quality and working environment, self-compacting concrete (SCC) has been widely accepted by the construction owners. The use of SCC in practical concrete construction is steadily increasing. Since SCC has to give satisfactory in
15、-situ properties (perfect filling of the mould and embedment of the reinforcement, homogeneity and full compaction) without vibration, the proper methods for testing the fresh SCC are very important. These should address three key properties: filling ability, passing ability and resistance to segreg
16、ation. It is desirable, especially in the case of new constituents or new concrete compositions, to test the consistence of fresh SCC before casting in place. A number of test methods including this test are available for testing fresh SCC. Most of the commonly used test methods were evaluated in th
17、e recently closed EU-project “Testing-SCC“ under the 5thFrame Programme (GRD2-2000-30024/G6RD-CT-2001-00580). According to the results from this EU project, it seems no single test method can completely cover all the three key properties. Nevertheless any test method should at least be correlated to
18、 the practical situation and give consistent results in order to provide reliable data for judgment of concrete workability. This standard is one of a series concerned with testing fresh concrete. EN 12350, Testing fresh concrete, consists of the following parts: Part 1: Sampling Part 2: Slump-test

Take precautions to avoid dry cement entering the eyes, mouth and nose whilst mixing concrete. Prevent skin contact with wet ce
21、ment or concrete by wearing suitable protective clothing. If cement or concrete enters the eye, immediately wash it out thoroughly with clean water and seek medical treatment without delay. Wash wet concrete off the skin immediately. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national st

BS EN 12350-9:2010EN 12350-9:2010 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the procedure for determining the V-funnel flow time for self-compacting concrete. The test is not suitable when the ma
24、ximum size of the aggregate exceeds 22,4 mm. 2 Normative references 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 am
25、endments) applies. EN 12350-1, Testing fresh concrete Part 1: Sampling 3 Principle The V-funnel test is used to assess the viscosity and filling ability of self-compacting concrete. A V shaped funnel is filled with fresh concrete and the time taken for the concrete to flow out of the funnel is measu
26、red and recorded as the V-funnel flow time. 4 Apparatus 4.1 V-funnel, made to the internal dimensions and tolerances in Figure 1, fitted with a quick release, watertight hinged or sliding gate at its base and supported by a frame so that the top of the funnel is horizontal with sufficient clearance
27、beneath the gate to place the container underneath. The V-funnel shall be made from metal which shall be reference material; the surfaces shall be smooth, and not readily attacked by cement paste or be liable to rusting. If the funnel is made from other materials, in-use performance test data shall
28、be available which demonstrates long-term equivalence with metal. 4.2 Container, to hold the test sample and having a volume not less than 12 l. 4.3 Stop watch, capable of measuring to 0,1 s. 4.4 Straight edge, for striking off concrete level with the top of the funnel. BS EN 12350-9:2010EN 12350-9:
29、2010 (E) 6 Dimensions in millimetres Key 1 Hinged or sliding gate Figure 1 V-funnel 5 Test sample A sample of at least 12 l shall be obtained in accordance with EN 12350-1. 6 Procedure Clean the funnel and bottom gate, then dampen all the inside surface including the gate. Close the gate and pour th
30、e sample of concrete into the funnel in one operation, without any agitation or mechanical compaction, then strike off the top with the straight edge so that the concrete is level with the top of the funnel. Place the container under the funnel in order to collect the concrete. After a delay of (10
31、2) s from filling the funnel, open the gate quickly and measure the time tv, to 0,1 s, from opening the gate to when it is possible to see vertically through the funnel into the container below for the first time. The time tv is the V-funnel flow time. The flow of concrete from the funnel shall be c
32、ontinuous. If a blockage occurs the test shall be repeated. If a second blockage occurs the concrete lacks the necessary viscosity and filling ability of self-compacting concrete. Report if a blockage has occurred. 7 Test report The test report shall include: a) identification of the test sample; b)
33、 location where the test was performed; c) date and time of test; BS EN 12350-9:2010EN 12350-9:2010 (E) 7 d) V-funnel flow time, tv, to the nearest 0,5 s; e) any deviation from the standard test method; f) declaration by the person technically responsible for the test that it was carried out in acco
34、rdance with this standard, except as noted in item e). The report may include: g) temperature of the concrete at the time of test; h) age of concrete at time of test (if known). 8 Repeatability and reproducibility The repeatability r and reproducibility R have been determined by a programme includin
35、g ten laboratories, 20 operators and two replicates, and interpreted in accordance with ISO 5725-2. The resulting values for r and R are given in Table 1.
