What is BS EN 13892-2 - Flexural and compressive strength of screed materials about?
BS EN 13892-2 is the second part of the BS EN 13892 multi-series that deal with test methods for screed materials.
BS EN 13892-2 specifies a method for determining the flexural and compressive strength of moulded specimens made from cementitious screed-, calcium sulphate screed-, magnesite screed- and synthetic resin screed material.
Who is BS EN 13892-2 - Flexural and compressive strength of screed materials for?
BS EN 13892-2 on test method for determining flexural and compressive strength of screed materials is useful for:
- Cement manufacturers
- Civil engineers
- Architects
- Quality control personnel
- Testing and inspection personnel
Why should you use BS EN 13892-2 - Flexural and compressive strength of screed materials?
Screed materials are subjected to serious stresses and are prone to collapse under them. These values need to be documented as they help to identify the structural strengths and limitations of these materials.
BS EN 13892-2 helps you to determine the flexural and compressive of screed materials by providing you with detailed guidance on the apparatus requirements, and step-by-step procedures for flexural test and compressive test.
Overall, the test methods described in BS EN 13892-2 help you to identify the build quality of the screed material and the quality of the materials used to make it.
