17、 method of determining the freeze-thaw resistance of autoclaved aerated concrete manufactured according to prEN 12602 or EN 771-4. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. F
18、or undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

19、e content of autoclaved aerated concrete EN 12390-4, Testing hardened concrete Part 4: Compressive strength Specification for testing machines 3 Principle Cubic test specimens (two equal groups consisting of main test specimens and reference test specimens) are cut from products sampled from normal
20、production, saturated in water for 48 h, removed and then placed in polythene bags or similar protecting against drying for 24 h to equilibrate. The main test specimens are subjected to repeated freezing at 15 C for at least 8 h followed by thawing in an environment of 95 % relative humidity and 20
21、C for at least 8 h. The reference test specimens are stored in a climatic chamber at 20 C in conditions that prevent drying of the AAC during storage. After the specified number of freeze-thaw cycles (not less than 15), the mass loss of the main test specimens is determined. The dry density and mois
22、ture content is also determined on the reference test specimens. If the loss in compressive strength is also required to be determined, then Annex A should be followed. NOTE Depending on the conditions at the place of use, the number of freeze-thaw cycles can be specified by national provisions. 4 A

26、formly distributed temperature of (15 2) C; i) ventilated drying oven, capable of maintaining a temperature of (105 5) C; j) straight edge, at least 200 mm long and a square; k) compression testing machine, preferably hydraulically operated, which meets the requirements of EN 12390-4. NOTE The room
27、according to f) needs not necessarily be humidity-controlled. Alternatively it is possible to substitute moisture losses by 2 h prior to the end of the thawing period placing the main test specimens in underwater storage for 1 h at (20 5) C and subsequently leaving the test specimens to equilibrate
28、in air for 1 h at (20 5) C before freezing. This procedure is especially appropriate in combination with automatic systems. It should be ensured that the starting moisture content is not exceeded. 5 Test specimens 5.1 Sample The sample for the preparation of the test specimens shall be taken in such
29、 a manner that it is representative of the product to be investigated, and the test specimens shall be cut from the sample as illustrated in Figure 1. 5.2 Shape and size of the test specimens The test specimens shall be cubes with an edge length of (100 2) mm. 5.3 Number of test specimens A test set
30、 shall consist of 12 test specimens: 6 main test specimens and 6 reference test specimens. The main test specimens are exposed to a specified number of freeze-thaw cycles in accordance with 6.1, and their loss in mass (see 7.3) and, if required, their loss in compressive strength due to this exposur
31、e is determined (see A.3 and A.4). The reference test specimens are used for determination of the moisture content of the AAC prior to the freeze-thaw test and of the dry density and, if required, for the determination of the (control) compressive strength. 5.4 Preparation of test specimens The test
32、 specimens shall be cut by means of a rotating diamond or carborundum blade or similar equipment. Their surfaces shall not deviate from planeness by more than 0,5 mm. Planeness shall be checked across the two diagonals using a straight edge and, if necessary, a 0,5 mm feeler gauge. Where test specim
33、ens are used for the determination of the compressive strength, their loadbearing surfaces shall not deviate from planeness by more than 0,1 mm and the angle between the load bearing surfaces and adjacent surfaces shall not deviate from a right angle by more than 1 mm/100 mm. If necessary, the latte
34、r shall be checked along both orthogonal middle axes of the load bearing surfaces by means of a square and a 1 mm feeler gauge or similar instrument. NOTE If the load-bearing surfaces of the main test specimens determined for the compression test are pitted after completion of freeze-thaw cycles, th
35、ey should be ground to a flatness of 0,1 mm. The position of the test specimens in the material relative to the rise of the mass shall be shown by the numbering, and the direction of rise shall be marked on the test specimens.

36、, Mon Jul 16 04:20:12 GMT+00:00 2007, Uncontrolled Copy, (c) BSI EN 15304:2007 (E) 6 Equal numbers of test specimens shall be prepared from the upper third of the sample, from the middle and from the lower third in the direction of rise of the mass during manufacture (see Figure 1). The test specime
37、ns shall be cut in pairs (main test specimens and reference test specimens) from adjacent areas of the sample to ensure a good comparison. Test specimens shall be suitably referenced and indicated either as main (m) or reference (r). In addition, the position of the test specimens in the unit and th
38、e number of the unit shall be marked. Key 1 Direction of rise m Main test specimen r Reference test specimen Figure 1 Cutting scheme 5.5 Measurement of test specimens and determination of their volume The dimensions of the test specimens shall be measured to an accuracy of 0,1 mm, using callipers. L
39、ength, height and width shall be measured in mid height at two opposite sides, and the volume V of the test specimens shall be calculated by multiplying the mean values. 5.6 Conditioning of test specimens After their preparation, the main test specimens and the reference test specimens shall be satu
40、rated in water for 48 h at (20 2) C. For this purpose they shall be stored for 24 h with half of their thickness (50 mm) in water and for 24 h totally under water. Then they shall be removed from the water and placed in a polythene bag or similar protecting against drying for 24 h to allow the speci
41、mens to equilibrate. 6 Testing procedure 6.1 Freeze-thaw test The main test specimens shall be frozen in air at a temperature of (15 2) C, preferably placed on wooden bearers or on mesh shelves. The distance between the main test specimens among each other as well as to the lateral chamber walls and
42、 to the upper shelves shall be at least 50 mm. The temperature at the centre of the test specimens shall fall to 0 C within (3 1) h and shall be checked on a control specimen prior to commencing the test. The total duration of the freezing period shall be at least 8 h, until freezing temperature (-1
43、5 2) C is reached in the centre of the test specimens. x 2 Licensed Copy: London South Bank University, London South Bank University, Mon Jul 16 04:20:12 GMT+00:00 2007, Uncontrolled Copy, (c) BSI EN 15304:2007 (E) 7 NOTE 1 The air temperature in the freezing chamber can be (15 2) C from the very be
44、ginning of the freezing period or decreased gradually from (20 2) C to that temperature for automatic systems. Thawing of the main test specimens after the freezing cycle can take place either in the same freezing chamber, for automatic systems, or in a separate thawing chamber. The main test specim
45、ens should be positioned preferably on wooden bearers, and the distance between each other as well as to the lateral container walls and to the upper shelves shall be at least 50 mm. During the thawing period a relative humidity of above 95 % shall be maintained to prevent moisture loss. The final a
46、ir temperature shall be maintained at (20 2) C. The temperature at the centre of the test specimens shall rise to 0 C within (1 to 5) h and shall be checked on a control specimen prior to commencing the test. The test specimens shall be left to thaw for a total of at least 8 h, until a temperature o
47、f (20 2) C is reached in the centre of the test specimens. NOTE 2 At the initial stage of thawing a lower humidity is permitted for a short period. NOTE 3 The required rate of temperature rise or fall in the centre of the main test specimens can be obtained by variation in the volume loading and air
48、 circulation of the chamber or by an automatic control system. This completes one freeze-thaw cycle. In case of a forced interruption of testing, the main test specimens shall be kept in the thawed condition, in a storage room at a temperature of (20 5) C and a relative humidity of 95 %, so that dry
49、ing is excluded. The reference test specimens shall be kept during the period of freeze-thaw-cycles of the main test specimens in a storage room at a temperature of (20 5) C and a relative humidity of 95 % or alternatively sealed in polythene bags at the same temperature so that they do not lose moisture. NOTE 4 If not automatised, the freeze-thaw cycles are best programmed such that the placing of the main test specimens in the
