Specification for masonry units - Part 5: Manufactured stone masonry units

This European Standard specifies the characteristics and performance requirements of manufactured stone masonry units for which the main intended uses are facing or exposed masonry in load bearing or non-load bearing building and civil engineering applications. The units are suitable for all forms of coursed or random masonry walling, including single leaf, cavity, partition, retaining and the external masonry to chimneys. They can provide fire protection, thermal insulation, sound insulation and sound absorption. This standard covers concrete masonry units manufactured to resemble natural stone using casting or pressing techniques with or without textured surfaces produced, by casting, splitting, washing, blasting or tooling and with or without variable outline effects. It covers homogeneous masonry units and those consisting of different facing and backing concrete mixes but excludes those manufactured with an adhesive bonded decorative face. This standard does not cover masonry units intended to conform to EN 771-3. It defines the performance related to e.g. strength, density, dimensional accuracy, surface appearance and provides for the evaluation of conformity of the product to this European Standard. The marking requirements for products covered by this European Standard are also included. This European Standard does not apply to storey height panels, masonry units used for chimney flues or units manufactured with an adhesive bonded decorative face. It does not include products intended to be used as a damp proof course nor does it specify standard sizes for manufactured stone masonry units or work dimensions and angles of specially shaped units. It does not cover units with an incorporated thermal insulation material bonded to the faces of the unit susceptible to be exposed to fire.

Specifikacija za zidake - 5. del: Zidaki iz umetnega kamna

Ta evropski standard določa značilnosti in zahteve za zmogljivost zidakov iz umetnega kamna, ki so predvideni predvsem za uporabo pri fasadni ali izpostavljeni zidavi pri nosilnih ali nenosilnih visokih ali nizkih gradnjah. Zidaki so primerni za vse oblike sten z zidaki v ravnih vrstah ali naključno razporejenimi zidaki, ki vključujejo enoslojne zidove, votle zidove, predelke, oporne zidove in zunanje stene dimnikov. Zagotavljajo lahko zaščito pred požarom, toplotno izolacijo, zvočno izolacijo in zvočno absorpcijo. Ta standard zajema betonske zidake, ki so izdelani tako, da so podobni naravnemu kamnu, z uporabo tehnik ulivanja ali stiskanja, s teksturiranimi površinami ali brez njih, z ulivanjem, cepljenjem, spiranjem, peskanjem ali obdelavo z orodjem in s spremenljivimi učinki orisa. Zajema homogene zidake in zidake, sestavljene iz različnih betonskih mešanic za sprednji in zadnji del, izključuje pa zidake, izdelane z okrasno stranico, vezano z adhezivom. Ta standard ne zajema zidakov, ki so v skladu z EN 771-3. Opredeljuje zmogljivost v zvezi z npr. močjo, gostoto, dimenzijsko natančnostjo, videzom površine ter zagotavlja oceno skladnosti proizvoda s tem evropskim standardom. Vključene so zahteve za označevanje proizvodov, ki jih zajema ta evropski standard. Ta evropski standard ne velja za panele etažne višine, zidake, ki se uporabljajo za dimne cevi dimnikov, ali zidake, narejene z okrasno stranico, vezano z adhezivom. Ne vključuje proizvodov, predvidenih za uporabo kot izolacijska zaščita pred vlago, in ne določa standardnih velikosti za zidake iz umetnega kamna ali delovnih dimenzij in kotov zidakov posebnih oblik. Ne zajema zidakov z vgrajenim materialom za toplotno izolacijo, vezanim na stranice zidaka, ki so lahko izpostavljene ognju.

suitability.
5 Requirements for manufactured stone masonry units
5.1 General
The requirements and properties specified in this European Standard shall be defined in terms of the test
methods and other procedures referred to in this European Standard.
It should be noted that the standard test methods are not always applicable to specially shaped masonry units
and accessory units as defined in 3.10 and 3.11 respectively.
The conformity criteria given in the following subclauses relate to !product type determination" (see 8.2)
and when relevant to consignment testing (see Annex A). For the compressive strength of Category I units
use a 50 % fractile (p = 0,50) for mean values or 5 % fractile (p = 0,05) for characteristic values and a
confidence level of 95 %.
For production evaluation the manufacturer shall define the conformity criteria in the factory production control
documentation (see 8.3).
5.2 Dimensions and tolerances
5.2.1 Dimensions
The manufacturer shall declare the dimensions of the manufactured stone masonry units in millimetres for
length, width and height, in that order (see Figure 1), and shall declare the tolerance category (see 5.2.2.1).

EN 771-5:2011+A1:2015 (E)
If sampled in accordance with A.2 and tested in accordance with EN 772-16, the mean value of the
measurements taken of any one dimension of a single unit shall not vary from the manufacturer's work size by
more than the tolerances given above for the declared tolerance category.
5.2.2.2 Flatness of bed faces
When manufactured stone masonry units are intended to be used with thin layer mortar, the manufacturer
shall declare the maximum deviation from flatness of the bed faces.
If sampled in accordance with A.2 and tested in accordance with EN 772-20, the deviation from flatness of the
bed faces shall not exceed the declared value.
5.2.2.3 Parallelism of bed faces
When manufactured stone masonry units are intended to be used with thin layer mortar, the manufacturer
shall also declare the maximum deviation from plane parallelism of the bed faces.
If sampled in accordance with A.2 and tested in accordance with EN 772-16:2011 Method d), the deviation
from plane parallelism shall not exceed the declared value.
5.3 Configuration and appearance
5.3.1 General
Units may be homogenous or two-part, but, in the case of two-part masonry units, the facing mix shall have a
thickness of not less than 20 mm. There shall be no delamination between the facing and the backing
concretes.
5.3.2 Configuration
When relevant to the uses for which manufactured stone masonry units are put on the market, the
configuration shall be declared, including the maximum area of voids on a bed face as a percentage of the
length × width of the unit. The declaration may be made using a drawing or an illustration.
Units intended for use in structural applications shall contain not more than 60 % by volume of all formed
voids and may be provided with or without recesses or interlocking features. Such units containing not more
than 25 % by volume of formed voids and having no single void greater than 12,5 % of the total volume of the
unit may be declared as Group 1 masonry units, in accordance with the requirements of EN 1996-1-1.
When conformity with the declared configuration cannot be assessed by visual inspection, masonry units shall
be sampled in accordance with A.2, measured in accordance with EN 772-16 and the values calculated.
5.3.3 Surface appearance
The exposed surfaces of manufactured stone masonry units shall be plain, profiled or textured as declared by
the manufacturer. Compliance of textured or profiled surfaces may be established on the basis of comparison
with any approved samples. Comparison shall be made from a distance of
3 m in normal daylight conditions.
5.3.4 Flatness of surfaces
Where the surfaces of the unit are declared by the manufacturer to be plain (see 5.3.3), they shall not deviate
L
d
from a plane by more than (0,1 ) mm or 2 mm whichever is the greater, where Ld is the length of the
diagonal of the surface declared plain. If sampled in accordance with A.2 and tested in accordance with
EN 772-20, no individual measurement of the deviation from a plane shall exceed the value given above.

to be used in elements subject to acoustic requirements, the manufacturer shall declare its gross dry density.
For two-part units the net dry density of each part shall be declared.
NOTE This declaration can be made for the evaluation of:
