Overview
EN 13395-2:2002 is a European standard developed by CEN that specifies a test method for determining the workability of flowing-grade hydraulic cement mortars, polymer-modified hydraulic cement mortars, and polymer-bound mortars. These materials are used specifically for the protection and repair of concrete structures, as defined in the related standard EN 1504-1. This standard focuses on assessing the flow properties of grout or mortar with a maximum aggregate size of 4 mm, making it essential for quality control in concrete repair operations.
By providing a standardized approach to measuring grout or mortar consistency, EN 13395-2:2002 ensures that construction professionals can accurately evaluate materials for ease of application and performance in both laboratory and on-site environments.
Key Topics
Scope
The standard applies to flowing repair mortars and grouts, including:- Hydraulic cement mortars (CC)
- Polymer-modified hydraulic cement mortars (PCC)
- Polymer-bound mortars (PC)
These materials are tested for workability to optimize their handling and effectiveness in concrete repair projects.
Test Principle
The method measures the distance a fixed volume (1 litre) of grout or mortar flows along a defined grout flow trough after 30 seconds. The horizontal spread is recorded as the "flow value," reflecting the material’s flowability.Equipment and Conditions
- Standard laboratory mixer (per EN 196-1)
- Specific grout flow trough designed for flow measurement
- Controlled laboratory climate (21 ± 2 °C and 60 ± 10% relative humidity) for consistency
Test Procedure Highlights
- Mix grout per manufacturer instructions
- Condition materials and equipment under standard climate for 24 hours
- Pour grout in trough, wait 30 seconds, then release grout to flow
- Measure flow distance after 30 seconds, noting if grout continues moving
Reporting Requirements
Detailed test reports must include:- Reference to EN 13395-2:2002
- Laboratory and manufacturer details
- Test date, conditions, and equipment information
- Flow value results and observations on grout movement
- Any deviations from standard procedures
Applications
EN 13395-2:2002 is invaluable for professionals involved in the repair and protection of concrete structures, including:
Quality Control Laboratories
Use this standard to verify the workability of repair mortars before deployment on site ensuring consistency and compliance with project specifications.Concrete Repair Contractors
Assess grout and mortar flow characteristics to select appropriate products for structural and non-structural repairs, thereby optimizing application efficiency and final performance.Material Manufacturers
Standardize the production and formulation of polymer-modified and hydraulic cement mortars by rigorous testing, ensuring reliable product quality and customer confidence.On-site Testing
The simplicity and robustness of this test allow it to serve as a field method to evaluate grout workability during construction or repair activities, facilitating timely adjustments as needed.
Related Standards
For comprehensive evaluation and application of concrete repair materials, EN 13395-2:2002 should be considered alongside related standards such as:
- EN 1504-1 - Definitions and requirements for products and systems for protection and repair of concrete structures.
- EN 196-1 - Methods of testing cement, specifically for strength determination.
- EN 13395-1: Flow of thixotropic mortars
- EN 13395-3: Workability testing of repair concrete
- EN 13395-4: Application of repair mortar overhead
- EN 1015-2 - Mortar test methods for masonry, including sampling and preparation.
These complementary standards together provide a unified framework for material characterization, ensuring concrete repairs meet stringent performance and durability criteria.
By adhering to EN 13395-2:2002, stakeholders ensure precise evaluation of grout and mortar workability, supporting durable and effective concrete repair solutions while enhancing quality assurance processes in the construction industry.
