BS EN 846-14:2012 EN 846-14:2012 (E) 4 1 Scope This European Standard specifies a method for determining the in plane initial shear strength of the horizontal bed joint between the prefabricated part of a comp
20、osite lintel and the masonry above it, using a specimen tested in shear. Guidance is given on the preparation of the specimens, the conditioning required before testing, the testing machine, the method of test, the method of calculation and the contents of the test report. The method corresponds wit
21、h the method described in EN 1052-3:2003+A1:2006. Guidance is given where the method deviates from EN 1052-3. Therefore, each section of EN 1052-3 is repeated given the necessary changes. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document

25、 and compressive strength of hardened mortar 3 Principle The initial shear strength of the horizontal bed joint between the prefabricated part of a composite lintel and the masonry above it is derived from the strength of small specimens tested to destruction. The specimens are tested in shear under
26、 four-point load. Four different failure modes are considered to give valid results. Two procedures, A and B are included. Procedure A involves testing specimens at different precompressions and the initial shear strength is defined by a linear regression curve to zero prestress. Procedure B involve
27、s testing specimens at zero precompression and determining a characteristic initial shear strength from a simple or a statistical consideration of the results.

Measure the moisture content by mass of
34、 autoclaved aerated concrete and calcium silicate units in accordance with EN 772-10. Record the age of non-autoclaved concrete units at the time of testing the masonry specimens. 5.1.2 Testing Determine the compressive strength of a sample of masonry units, using the test method given in EN 772-1.

The bottom parts consist of a piece of the prefabricated part of the composite lintels with the intended upper bed
42、 face towards the mortar joints. Where for practical purposes it is necessary to cut units, ensure that the faces of the unit to be mortared are representative of the unit as a whole. The length ls of the piece of the prefabricated part of the composite lintel shall correspond with the length of the
43、 masonry unit lu 300 mm.

Build the specimens within 30 min after completion of the conditioning of the units. Use mortar mixed n
45、ot more than 1 h beforehand unless it is designed to be used over a more prolonged period. The bearing surfaces of the masonry units shall be wiped clean of any adherent dust. The lower piece of the prefabricated part of the composite lintel shall be laid on a clean level surface. The masonry unit s
46、hall be laid so that a final mortar joint thickness of 8 mm to 15 mm, representative of masonry with conventional mortar joints, or of 1 mm to 3 mm, representative of masonry with thin layer mortar joints, is attained. The masonry unit shall be checked for linear alignment and level using a set-squa
47、re and spirit level. Excess mortar shall then be struck off with a trowel. The procedure for the masonry unit shall be repeated for the top piece of the prefabricated part of the composite lintel. The intended bonding faces of the pieces of the prefabricated part of the composite lintel shall be in
48、contact with the mortar (the faces that are normally visible shall stay visible). 7.2 Curing and conditioning of the specimens Immediately after building, pre-compress each specimen by an uniformly distributed mass to give a vertical stress between 2,0 N/mm2 10-3N/mm2 and 5,0 N/mm2 10-3N/mm2. Then c
49、ure the specimens and maintain them undisturbed until testing. For other than lime based mortars, prevent the test specimens from drying out during the curing period by close covering with polyethylene sheet, and maintain the specimens undisturbed until testing, unless otherwise specified. Test each specimen at an age of 28 days 1, unless otherwise specified for lime based mortars, and determine the compressive strength of the mortar at the same
