Overview
SIST EN 14224:2010 is a European Standard developed by the CEN Technical Committee focused on flexible sheets for waterproofing applications. This standard specifies a test method for determining the crack bridging ability of reinforced bitumen sheets used primarily on concrete bridge decks and other concrete surfaces trafficked by vehicles. Ensuring effective waterproofing in these structures is critical to their durability and safety, given the exposure to dynamic loads and environmental factors.
This standard supersedes the previous 2005 edition and applies across CEN member countries. It provides detailed requirements for specimen preparation, test setup, and procedures to reliably assess waterproofing sheet performance against crack-induced stresses.
Key Topics
- Scope: Measurement of crack bridging ability in reinforced bitumen waterproofing sheets for concrete trafficable surfaces.
- Test Principle: Inducing controlled cracks in concrete base specimens covered with the sheet and cyclically varying crack width at specified temperatures.
- Specimen Types:
- Type 1: Waterproofing without asphalt protection.
- Type 3: Waterproofing with an asphalt protection layer.
- Test Conditions:
- Temperatures: typically -30 °C, -20 °C, -10 °C, or 0 °C.
- Cyclic crack width variation with defined amplitude and frequency (1 Hz).
- Up to 10,000 cycles or until sheet failure.
- Apparatus Requirements: Precise temperature-controlled chamber, crack width measuring device (±0.01 mm accuracy), and a cracking/loading apparatus preventing bending.
- Observations: Monitoring for damage signs like delamination, tears, or debonding during and after testing.
- Watertightness Verification: Post-test water penetration check using moisture-sensitive paper.
- Reporting: Comprehensive test report including product identification, sampling, procedure details, observations, and test results.
Applications
SIST EN 14224:2010 is essential for manufacturers, quality control labs, and civil engineering professionals involved in:
- Designing and qualifying waterproofing systems for concrete bridge decks exposed to vehicle traffic.
- Evaluating reinforced bitumen sheets to ensure longevity and performance under mechanical stress caused by cracking.
- Supporting infrastructure resilience by preventing water ingress that could undermine concrete and steel components.
- Informing procurement specifications for durable flexible waterproofing membranes in highway, bridge, and similar civil construction projects.
- Conducting research and development for new waterproofing materials with enhanced crack bridging characteristics.
The standard facilitates the consistent characterization of waterproofing sheet performance, aiding manufacturers in meeting regulatory and project requirements and helping engineers select appropriate membranes for demanding concrete traffic surfaces.
