Precast concrete products - Test methods for glassfibre reinforced concrete
This document specifies test methods for identifying the performance of a Glass fibre Reinforced Concrete composition in terms of bending strength, water absorption, dry density, and dimensional variations. These methods can be used for type testing or for the evaluation of the uniformity of the production process. They can be used on Glass fibre Reinforced Concrete coupons prepared as described in this document, or on samples cut out of Glass fibre Reinforced Concrere products. A cyclic weathering type test is also described for information in Annex C.

This document specifies test methods for identifying the performance of a GRC composition in terms of
bending strength, water absorption, dry density, and dimensional variations.
These methods can be used for type testing or for the evaluation of the uniformity of the production
process. They can be used on GRC coupons prepared as described in this document, or on samples cut
out of GRC products.
A cyclic weathering type test is also described for information in Annex C.

4 Sampling and preparation of test pieces
4.1 Apparatus
Flat test board moulds with internal dimensions of not less than 500 mm × 500 mm with a (12 ± 0,5) mm)
upstand around the edges from which a minimum of 4 test coupons, each 275 mm minimum × (50 ± 2)
mm can be cut; the test coupons shall be taken from the central area within a border approximately 50
mm from each edge.
oSIST prEN 1170:2024
prEN 1170:2023(E)
4.2 Test coupons
Make sample boards using the moulds described in clause 4 for each spray team, if Sprayed GRC, or mixer,
if Premix GRC, per day or production shift, with no facing layer (solid GRC only) under the same
conditions as for the actual production they represent.
Where the direction of production can have an influence on the results, Annex A may apply.
Demould and store the sample boards under the same conditions as for the actual production they
represent.
Cut out by sawing in each panel, at a minimum distance of 50 mm from the edges, 4 test coupons from
the positions illustrated in Figure 1.
Mark the test coupons as shown in Figure 1.

The test board method is the reference method, but in some cases, it may be considered necessary to cut
coupons directly from products. In this case, Annex B applies.
Storage of the test boards/coupons:
The test coupons shall be stored/cured under the same conditions as the products which they represent.
5 Bending strength
5.1 General
This clause specifies a test method for identifying the stress and deformation performance, at the limit of
proportionality and on failure, of a GRC composition subjected to bending.
It is used for the evaluation of the uniformity of the production process. It can also be used to establish,
for a given composition of GRC, the relationship between the conventional strength at 28 days and the
strength at 7 days, or at other ages.
This method can be used on GRC coupons prepared as described in this document, or on samples cut out
of GRC products.
5.2 Apparatus
The apparatus comprises:
