The EN 998-2:2010 standard is an essential document within the construction and civil engineering sector, providing a comprehensive framework for the specification of masonry mortar. This standard's scope is well-defined, focusing specifically on factory-made masonry mortars intended for use in various structural applications, including walls, columns, and partitions. The inclusion of different mortar types such as bedding, jointing, and pointing highlights its versatility and relevance across multiple masonry scenarios, from facing and rendered masonry to both load-bearing and non-load-bearing structures. One of the significant strengths of this standard is its detailed attention to performance characteristics of both fresh and hardened mortars. EN 998-2:2010 meticulously outlines requirements related to critical performance factors such as workable life, chloride content, air content, density, and compressive strength. By specifying these criteria, the standard ensures that manufacturers adhere to high-quality benchmarks which enhance the durability and safety of masonry structures. Furthermore, the provision for evaluating the conformity of products ensures accountability and confidence in the materials being used, fostering trust in construction practices. Additionally, the standard aids in achieving consistency across the industry by incorporating standardized test methods outlined in separate European Standards. This integration helps maintain uniformity in construction materials, which is pivotal for achieving effective results in masonry applications. The marking requirements stipulated in the standard further facilitate product identification and compliance verification, ensuring that end users can easily ascertain the suitability of the mortar for their specific project needs. While the standard notably excludes site-made mortars, it remains relevant by allowing for its principles to be applied in conjunction with codes of applications and national specifications that govern site-made alternatives. This adaptability ensures that the guidelines established by EN 998-2:2010 can still inform practices related to non-factory made mortars, promoting a standardized approach to masonry construction overall. In summary, the EN 998-2:2010 standard stands out as a crucial specification document for masonry mortar, effectively marrying regulatory requirements with practical application in construction. Its breadth of coverage, performance-related criteria, and evaluation methods significantly contribute to improved quality and safety in masonry work, making it a vital resource for industry professionals.
