5 Principle
This test method measures the unrestrained linear movement, called dimensional stability (i.e. shrinkage
and swelling), of screed materials in a 1 000 mm curling profile apparatus. A special feature of this test
method is the earliest possible commencement of measurements.
Dimensional stability is measured on screed materials made in accordance with EN 13892-1.
=
Irrespective of the consistency of the screed material, monitoring of horizontal length change commences
directly after the mould is filled. When measurements of length reach a steady-state, the monitoring
process ends.
The apparatus monitors the change in length of the specimen over time.
In general, the shrinkage predominates the dimensional stability. In this case, the dimensional stability is
calculated by comparing the difference between the measured local maximum length and the measured
length at steady-state (end of length change), see Formula (1):
