According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, It

EN 13791:2007 (E) 5 Introduction This European Standard provides techniques for estimating in-situ compressive strength in concrete structures
23、 and precast concrete components. Testing in-situ strength takes into account the effects of both the materials and execution (compaction, curing, etc.). These tests do not replace concrete testing according to EN 206-1. EN 206-1 refers to the guidance of this standard for assessing the strength in
24、structures and precast concrete components. The following examples illustrate where this estimate of in-situ strength of concrete may be required: when an existing structure is to be modified or redesigned; to assess structural adequacy when doubt arises about the compressive strength in the structu
25、re due to defective workmanship, deterioration of concrete due to fire or other causes; when an assessment of the in-situ concrete strength is needed during construction; to assess structural adequacy in the case of non-conformity of the compressive strength obtained from standard test specimens; as
26、sessment of conformity of the in-situ concrete compressive strength when specified in a specification or product standard. Where identified in this standard, national provisions are permitted or required. An outline of the procedures for these different uses of this standard is given in Flowchart 1.
27、 For specific production conditions and constituent materials, development of economic design where permitted by national provisions may be possible through the assessing the partial safety factor, cfrom knowledge of the in-situ compressive strength and the strength of standard test specimens. When
28、assessing compressive strengths in cases other than checking the quality of the concrete or the workmanship during execution or before accepting the structure for use, the appropriate reduction in the partial safety factor should be determined on a case-by-case basis according to national provisions

EN 13791:2007 (E) 6 Flowchart 1 EN 13791:2007 (E) 7 1 Scope This European Standard: gives methods and procedures for the assessment of the in-situ compressive strength of concrete in structures and precast concrete components; provides principles and guidance for establishing the relationships bet
30、ween test results from indirect test methods and the in-situ core strength; provides guidance for the assessment of the in-situ concrete compressive strength in structures or precast concrete components by indirect or combined methods. This European Standard does not include the following cases: whe
31、re indirect methods are used without correlation to core strength; assessment based on cores less than 50 mm in diameter; assessment based on less than 3 cores; use of microcores. NOTE In these cases provisions valid in place of use apply. This European Standard is not for the assessment of conformi

48、s constitutes the reference method, see 7. The assessment of in-situ compressive strength may also be done indirectly by other tests, see 8.2 and 8.3, or by a combination of various test methods, see 8.4. Where indirect tests are used, the uncertainty associated with the relationship between the tes
49、t and core test is taken into account. The test data may be used to estimate the in-situ characteristic strength and the corresponding strength class according to EN 206-1. 6 Characteristic in-situ compressive strength in relation to compressive strength class Table 1 gives requirements for the minimum characteristic in-situ compressive strength with respect to the compressive strength classes according to EN 206-1.
