TS 7719 Horizontal Connections Between Exterior Wall Consisting of Prefabricated Concrete Components and Concrete Floor

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, offers precise and rapid testing services within the scope of TS 7719 test. This International Standard describes a rule for designers to combine a concrete floor with an external wall made of ordinary precast concrete components.

TS 7719 Horizontal Connections Between Exterior Wall Consisting of Prefabricated Concrete Components and Concrete Floor

It refers to standardized methods for determining the properties of a connection. However, methods for some of these properties, especially waterproofing, have not yet been developed. Because of the fundamental importance of this feature, a solution is proposed, as an example, which experience and laboratory studies have shown to be satisfactory under ordinary conditions.

There is a capillary slit between the outer lip and the inner lip that opens outward. Within the tolerance limits for the relative positions of the components, the width of this break will be greater than 5 mm. The surfaces bounding the breaking point form an angle with the vertical a greater than 0° and less than 20°.

This position is characterized by the distance a between the upper edge of the lower component and the vertical reference plane of the external wall, as well as the distance b between the lower edge of the upper component and the reference plane of the floor.

For structures or components intended to be disassembled, arrangements to be made to ensure that the connection actually permits the removal and reassembly of components should be stated in the description of the connection, as well as, if necessary, the number and location of the components to be removed.
