Specification for masonry units - Part 1: Clay masonry units

This European Standard specifies the characteristics and performance requirements for masonry units manufactured from clay for use in masonry construction (e.g. facing and rendered masonry, loadbearing or non-loadbearing masonry structures, including internal linings and partitions, for building and civil engineering). This European Standard is intended to apply to two groups of fired-clay masonry units: a) LD units comprising: 1) clay masonry units with a gross dry density of less than or equal to 1000 kg/m3 for use in protected masonry. b) HD units comprising: 1) all clay masonry units for use in unprotected masonry; 2) clay masonry units with a gross dry density of greater than 1000 kg/m3 for use in protected masonry. This European Standard includes those clay masonry units of an overall non-rectangular parallelepiped shape. It defines the performance related to e.g. dimensional tolerances, strength, density measured according to the corresponding test methods contained in separate European Standards. It provides for the evaluation of conformity of the product to this European Standard. The marking requirement for products covered by this European Standard is included. This European Standard does not specify standard sizes for clay masonry units, nor does it specify standard work dimensions, angles and radii of specially shaped clay masonry units. This document does not include method of measurement, tolerance and range requirements for dimensions, angles and radii characteristics of specially shaped clay masonry units. This European Standard does not cover requirements for the following: units for paving, flue liners and storey height clay masonry units and clay masonry units with an incorporated thermal insulation material bonded to the faces of the unit susceptible to be exposed to fire. It does, however, include clay masonry units for external chimney masonry.

b) HD units (see 3.5 and 5.3) comprising:
1) all clay masonry units for use in unprotected masonry;
3
2) clay masonry units with a gross dry density of greater than 1 000 kg/m for use in protected masonry.
This European Standard includes those clay masonry units of an overall non-rectangular parallelepiped
shape.
It defines the performance related to e.g. dimensional tolerances, strength, density measured according to the
corresponding test methods contained in separate European Standards.
It provides for the evaluation of conformity of the product to this European Standard.
The marking requirement for products covered by this European Standard is included.
This European Standard does not specify standard sizes for clay masonry units, nor does it specify standard
work dimensions, angles and radii of specially shaped clay masonry units. This document does not include
method of measurement, tolerance and range requirements for dimensions, angles and radii characteristics of
specially shaped clay masonry units.
This European Standard does not cover requirements for the following: units for paving, flue liners and storey
height clay masonry units and clay masonry units with an incorporated thermal insulation material bonded to
the faces of the unit susceptible to be exposed to fire. It does, however, include clay masonry units for
external chimney masonry.

FprEN 771-1:2010 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the characteristics and performance requirements for masonry units manufactured from clay for use in masonry construction (e.g. facing and rendered masonry, loadbearing or non-loadbearing masonry structures, including internal linings and partitions, for building and civil engineering). This European Standard is intended to apply to two groups of fired-clay masonry units: a) LD units (see 3.4 and 5.2) comprising: 1) clay masonry units with a gross dry density of less than or equal to 1 000 kg/m3 for use in protected masonry. b) HD units (see 3.5 and 5.3) comprising: 1) all clay masonry units for use in unprotected masonry; 2) clay masonry units with a gross dry density of greater than 1 000 kg/m3 for use in protected masonry. This European Standard includes those clay masonry units of an overall non-rectangular parallelepiped shape. It defines the performance related to e.g. dimensional tolerances, strength, density measured according to the corresponding test methods contained in separate European Standards. It provides for the evaluation of conformity of the product to this European Standard. The marking requirement for products covered by this European Standard is included. This European Standard does not specify standard sizes for clay masonry units, nor does it specify standard work dimensions, angles and radii of specially shaped clay masonry units. This document does not include method of measurement, tolerance and range requirements for dimensions, angles and radii characteristics of specially shaped clay masonry units. This European Standard does not cover requirements for the following: units for paving, flue liners and storey height clay masonry units and clay masonry units with an incorporated thermal insulation material bonded to the faces of the unit susceptible to be exposed to fire. It does, however, include clay masonry units for external chimney masonry. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
