EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of EN 846-2 testing. This European standard specifies a method for determining the bond strength of prefabricated bearing joint reinforcement in a masonry sample made of specified units and mortar. This test method is applicable to prefabricated bearing joint reinforcement designed in accordance with EN 845-3. The method is not applicable to alternative forms of reinforcement that can be used in the wall, eg bars.
In this test, prefabricated bed joint reinforcement is embedded in mortar in a small wall of bonded masonry units. The reinforcement is then subjected to tension to determine bond strength.
Determine the compressive strength of a sample of wall unit using the method given in EN 772-1. For non-autoclaved concrete units, determine the compressive strength during testing of wall samples.
Take representative samples of fresh mortar from the wall plate to make mortar prisms to determine the flow value according to EN 1015-3 and the air content according to EN 1015-7. Use prism samples to determine the average compressive strength when testing wall samples according to EN 1015-11.
