Overview
SIST EN 1052-2:2016 is a European standard published by CEN that defines the methods for determining the flexural strength of masonry. It applies specifically to small masonry specimens tested along the two principal axes of loading. This standard provides detailed guidance on specimen preparation, conditioning, testing procedures, calculation methods, and reporting requirements, ensuring consistent and reliable assessment of masonry flexural strength across industry laboratories.
Key objectives of this standard include establishing precise test conditions, ensuring reproducibility, and facilitating comparison of masonry performance. Flexural strength determination helps assess the ability of masonry to resist bending forces, a critical property for structural safety and durability.
Key Topics
Scope and Purpose
- Testing flexural strength of masonry using small specimens.
- Focus on two principal axes of loading for comprehensive evaluation.
Specimen Preparation and Conditioning
- Masonry units are conditioned according to specified moisture and curing parameters.
- Mortar mixing procedures and consistence tests ensure representative bonding conditions.
- Specimens built within strict timelines and cured under controlled environments for 28 days (or as alternative for lime-based mortar).
Testing Apparatus and Setup
- Use of a calibrated testing machine with defined error limits and load application rates.
- Four-point bending setup with precise bearing placements.
- Specimens tested vertically or horizontally with detailed guidance on positioning and support to avoid friction or handling damage.
Testing Procedure
- Load application rate between 0.03 and 0.3 N/mm² per minute until failure.
- Record maximum load, crack location, time to failure, and specimen dimensions.
- Repeat tests until at least five valid results per loading direction are obtained.
Calculations and Evaluation
- Flexural strength calculated using formulas accounting for specimen size and loading configuration.
- Mean and characteristic flexural strengths derived statistically, including consideration of standard deviations and sample size.
Reporting Requirements
- Comprehensive test report content including laboratory details, specimen description, curing, mortar and masonry properties, loading data, and test results.
