(Amendment)Specification for masonry units - Part 2: Calcium silicate masonry units
Specification for masonry units - Part 2: Calcium silicate masonry units
This document specifies the characteristics and performance requirements of calcium silicate masonry units for which the main intended uses are inner walls, outer walls, cellars, foundations and external chimney masonry. This document is intended to apply to all calcium silicate masonry units, including those of an overall nonrectangular parallelepiped shape, specially shaped and accessory units.It defines the performance related to e.g. strength, density and dimensional accuracy, 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 document is also included. This document does not specify standard sizes for calcium silicate masonry units, nor standard work dimensions and angles of specially shaped and accessory units. It does not cover units with more than 60 % volume of voids, nor products made from shale as a major raw material. It does not cover storey height panels. It does not cover units intended for use as a damp proof course, nor units with an incorporated thermal insulation material bonded to the faces of the unit susceptible to be exposed to fire nor chimney flue units.

Foreword
This document (EN 771-2:2011/FprA1:2014) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 125
“Masonry”, the secretariat of which is held by BSI.
This document is currently submitted to the Unique Acceptance Procedure.
This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the
European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive(s).
For relationship with EU Directive(s), see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this document.
NOTE Due to fact that the Framework Partnership Agreement between the Commission and CEN & CENELEC is not
signed yet, there are currently no New Approach Consultants in place for 2014. Therefore the provisions of CEN-
CENELEC Guide 15 cannot be met.
This shall not prevent the processing of draft standards nor the offering of harmonized standards to the Commission. In
particular, draft standards can be sent to vote without Consultant assessment.
This note will be removed from the Foreword of the finalized publication.
1 Modification to the Foreword
th
In the 5 paragraph, replace “the essential requirements of the EU Construction Products Directive
(89/106/EEC).” with “basic requirements for construction works of the EU Construction Products Regulation
(Regulation (EU) No 305/2011).”.
th
Replace the 6 paragraph with the following:
“For relationship with EU Regulation/Directive(s), see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this
document.”.

3 Modifications to Clause 3, Terms and definitions
Add new clauses:
“3.28
protected masonry
masonry (walls, columns or partitions) which is protected against water penetration and is not in contact with
soil and ground water
Note 1 to entry: It can either be masonry in external walls which is protected, (e.g. by a layer of suitable render or by
cladding), or it can be the inner leaf of a cavity wall or it can be an internal wall. It may or may not be loadbearing.
3.29
unprotected masonry
masonry (walls, columns or partitions) which may be exposed to rain, freeze/thaw and/or may be in contact
with soil and ground water without a suitable protection
Note 1 to entry: It can either be masonry in external walls which is fully unprotected, or which is intended to be
provided by a limited protection (e.g. by a thin layer of render). It may or may not be loadbearing”.
4 Modification to 5.1, General
rd
In the 3 paragraph, replace “to initial type testing“ with “to product type determination”.
5 Modification to 5.2.2.1, Tolerances
Replace the text in the last column of Table 1 with the following:
“a deviation in mm declared by the manufacturer (may be closer or wider than the other categories)”.
6 Modification to 5.5, Compressive strength
In the NOTE, delete “for the purpose of CE marking”.
7 Modification to 5.7, Durability
st
Replace the 1 paragraph with the following:
“For calcium silicate masonry units intended to be used where there is a risk of freezing and thawing while in a
wet condition, the manufacturer shall declare the freeze/thaw resistance category according to Table 2.”.
8 Addition of a new subclause 5.13
Add a new clause:
“5.13 Dangerous substances
National regulations on dangerous substances may require verification and declaration on release, and
sometimes content, when construction products covered by this standard are placed on those markets.
In the absence of European harmonized test methods, verification and declaration on release/content should
be done taking into account national provisions in the place of use.
NOTE An informative database covering European and national provisions on dangerous substances is available at
the Construction web site on EUROPA accessed through: http://ec.europa.eu/enterprise/construction/cpd-ds/.".
9 Modification to Clause 6, Description, designation and classification of calcium
silicate masonry units
Replace the heading with the following:
“Description, designation, designation code and classification of calcium silicate masonry units”.
