EN 13892-8 Test Methods for Screed Materials - Standard Test for Determination of Bond Strength

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of EN 13892-8 testing. This European standard specifies a method for determining the bond strength between a screed and a standard substrate, and a method for determining the tensile strength at the surface of specimens made of cementitious screed, calcium sulfate, screed, magnesia alum and synthetic resin.

The method is also suitable for floor screeds for determining the tensile strength at the surface of the floor screed or for determining the bond strength between a bonded floor screed and a base.

Sampling of the screed material and preparation and curing of test samples will follow the method in EN 13892-1. If a binder is prescribed by the manufacturer, it should be applied to the surface of the concrete test specimens. The thickness of the screed must be within the range declared by the manufacturer.

The results of this testing provide manufacturers, builders and contractors with valuable information about the screed material's ability to bond effectively with other paving materials. A strong bond is necessary to ensure the long-term integrity and performance of the overall construction project.

EN 13892-8 is part of a comprehensive set of standards that address various aspects of screed materials to ensure they meet performance, durability and safety requirements. This specific standard focuses on evaluating the bond strength of screed materials when used as substrates for other materials in construction and flooring applications.
