Overview
EN 1352:1996 is a CEN European Standard that defines a laboratory method for determining the static modulus of elasticity in compression of autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) and lightweight aggregate concrete with open structure (LAC). The standard was adopted nationally (SIST EN 1352:2001) and aligns with the procedural reference prEN 1520. It is intended to provide reproducible measurement procedures for material characterization and quality assessment of AAC and open‑structure LAC products.
Key topics and technical requirements
The standard covers the essential elements needed to obtain a reliable static modulus of elasticity in compression, including:
- Scope and material types: applicability to autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) and lightweight aggregate concrete with open structure (LAC).
- Specimen preparation and conditioning: requirements for representative test specimens and environmental conditioning prior to testing (humidity/temperature considerations referenced to prEN 1520).
- Testing procedure: controlled compression loading and staged measurement of deformations to produce stress–strain data for static modulus calculation.
- Instrumentation and measurement: use of appropriate deformation measuring devices (e.g., extensometers or displacement transducers) and calibration/practical set‑up to ensure accuracy.
- Calculation and reporting: determination of the static modulus from the measured stress–strain relationship and required reporting items to document test results for comparison and compliance.
- Quality and reproducibility: guidance to minimize variability and ensure repeatable results across laboratories.
(EN 1352:1996 specifies methodology; exact numerical parameters such as loading rates or specimen dimensions are defined in the full standard text or referenced prEN 1520 and should be consulted directly.)
Applications and users
EN 1352 is practical for:
- Manufacturers of AAC blocks, panels and lightweight concretes for product development, specification, and production quality control.
- Testing and quality assurance laboratories performing material characterization and verification.
- Structural and materials engineers who need reliable modulus values for structural analysis, serviceability checks, and design of elements using AAC or LAC.
- Certification bodies and regulators assessing conformity to performance requirements.
Key uses include material selection, comparison of products, structural modelling input, and verifying compliance with contractual or regulatory specifications.
Related standards
- prEN 1520 (referenced method/conditioning)
- National adoptions (e.g., SIST EN 1352:2001) reflect the same methodology across member states.
