Abdichtungsbahnen - Abdichtung von Betonbrücken und anderen Verkehrsflächen aus Beton - Bestimmung der Verträglichkeit nach Wärmelagerung
Diese Europäische Norm legt ein Prüfverfahren für die Beurteilung der Verträglichkeit von Abdichtungs-systemen fest, die auf eine Betonfläche aufgebracht und mit einer Asphaltschicht bedeckt werden. Das vollständige System wird einer beschleunigten Wärmelagerung ausgesetzt und die Schubfestigkeitseigen-schaften werden vor und nach dieser Wärmelagerung bestimmt.

Overview
EN 14691:2017 (CEN) specifies a laboratory test method to evaluate the compatibility of flexible waterproofing sheets installed on concrete bridge decks and other concrete surfaces trafficable by vehicles when overlaid with asphalt. The complete waterproofing system (sheet + asphalt + concrete substrate) is exposed to an accelerated heat conditioning cycle and the change in shear strength is measured before and after conditioning to detect potential long‑term incompatibility (migration, diffusion or interfacial separation).
Key topics and requirements
- Scope: Compatibility testing of waterproofing systems on concrete decks covered by asphalt, using an accelerated heat conditioning followed by shear strength determination.
- Principle: Compare mean shear strength of conditioned specimens with reference (unconditioned) specimens to assess change in mechanical performance.
- Specimen preparation: Prepare specimens (Type 3) in accordance with EN 13375; four specimens for conditioning and four reference specimens for comparison.
- Heat conditioning:
- Oven with circulating air (no fresh air supply), maintained at (50 ± 2) °C.
- Specimens placed horizontally, not stacked, for 91 days.
- After removal, conditioned specimens are equilibrated at (23 ± 2) °C for 24 h before testing.
- Shear testing: Per EN 13653, using a loading/support device meeting that standard’s requirements.
- Visual inspection: Before and after shear testing inspect for migration, semi‑liquid build‑up or layer separation.
- Expression of results: Compatibility C (%) expressed from mean shear strengths:
- C (%) = [(τ0_max − τC_max) / τ0_max] × 100
- τ0_max = mean shear strength of reference specimens
- τC_max = mean shear strength of conditioned specimens
- C (%) = [(τ0_max − τC_max) / τ0_max] × 100
- Reporting: Include product ID, reference to EN 14691:2017, specimen prep and test procedure, force–displacement plots, individual failure modes, compatibility value, visual observations, and test dates.
- Note: No precision data currently available for this method.
Applications and users
- Who uses it:
- Manufacturers of flexible waterproofing sheets (quality verification)
- Independent testing laboratories (type and performance testing)
- Bridge and highway engineers (specification and acceptance)
- Contractors and asset owners (procurement and QA)
- Certification bodies and standards committees
- Practical uses:
- Assess long‑term compatibility between waterproofing membranes, adhesives and asphalt overlays
- Support product selection for trafficked concrete decks
- Provide objective data for contract specifications, warranty claims and durability assessments
