Overview

EN 13653:2017 is a European standard established by CEN focusing on the testing and evaluation of flexible sheets used for waterproofing concrete bridge decks and other trafficable concrete surfaces. This standard specifically defines a method for determining the shear strength of waterproofing sheet systems applied on concrete surfaces topped with asphalt layers. Accurate assessment of shear strength is essential to ensure durability and performance under vehicular stresses, such as braking forces on bridge decks.

This document forms part of a broader series of standards addressing flexible sheet waterproofing materials, reinforcing best practices for safe and lasting infrastructure waterproofing.

Key Topics

  • Scope: Applies to waterproofing sheets for concrete bridge decks and other concrete surfaces that support vehicle traffic.
  • Shear strength determination: This standard specifies a test method simulating dynamic shear forces affecting waterproofing systems during vehicular movement.
  • Test principle: A controlled loading device applies a force at a 15° angle to the waterproofing system to measure shear resistance in compression.
  • Specimen preparation: Test specimens integrate the waterproofing sheet between a concrete base and an asphalt layer, sized 220 mm × 110 mm, prepared under standardized conditions (EN 13375 and EN 13416).
  • Testing conditions: Specimens are conditioned at (23 ± 2) °C, with force application at a constant displacement rate of (10 ± 1) mm/min.
  • Result calculation: Shear strength is calculated as shear stress at maximum force using precise formulas derived from load and area measurements.
  • Failure modes: Inspection categorizes failures as adhesion (between layers) or cohesion (within the waterproofing layer), critical for diagnosing weaknesses.
  • Reporting requirements: Detailed documentation of test conditions, specimen preparation, measured data, and failure analysis ensures reproducibility and compliance.

Applications

EN 13653:2017 is vital for:

  • Bridge construction and maintenance: Ensures waterproofing sheets on bridge decks withstand mechanical shear forces caused by traffic, prolonging lifespan and preventing water ingress.
  • Road infrastructure waterproofing: Applicable to concrete surfaces exposed to vehicular loads, such as parking decks, tunnels, and airport aprons.
  • Quality control in manufacturing: Facilitates evaluation of waterproofing sheet products, enhancing product reliability.
  • Contractor and engineer specification: Provides a standardized method for selecting and verifying waterproofing systems during construction tender and inspection processes.
  • Research and development: Supports innovation in waterproofing materials by offering a consistent method for assessing mechanical performance under shear stress.

Related Standards

EN 13653:2017 references and complements several essential standards within the waterproofing domain:

  • EN 13375: Specifies specimen preparation methods for testing waterproofing sheets on concrete bridge decks.
  • EN 13416: Governs sampling rules for bitumen, plastic, and rubber waterproofing sheets.
  • EN 14695: Defines terminology and characteristics for reinforced bitumen sheets used in concrete bridge deck waterproofing.
  • prEN 17048: Covers plastic and rubber sheets for waterproofing concrete decks, providing definitions and material properties.

Adherence to these linked standards ensures a holistic and harmonized approach to evaluating and applying flexible sheet waterproofing in civil engineering projects.
