EN 772-3 Determination of Net Volume and Void Percentage of Clay Masonry Units by Hydrostatic Weighing

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, offers precise and rapid testing services within the scope of EN 772-3 testing. This European Standard specifies a method for determining the net volume and percentage of voids in clay masonry units.

EN 772-3 Determination of Net Volume and Void Percentage of Clay Masonry Units by Hydrostatic Weighing

This standard is designed specifically for clay-based masonry units and is an important tool for understanding the physical properties of these materials. The standard uses the principle of buoyancy of water to determine the net volume of the masonry unit and the percentage of free space within it.

The hydrostatic weighing method works by measuring how much water the masonry unit repels when submerged. This is used to calculate the net volume of the unit and hence the void percentage.

This test is important for quality control in the production of clay bricks and similar materials. Correctly specifying the unit's specifications can be critical to structural integrity and performance.

EN 772-3 provides a standard for evaluating masonry units across Europe, increasing comparability and consistency between materials. The use of this standard plays an important role in understanding the physical properties of clay-based masonry units and determining how these products will perform in construction projects.
