Products and systems for the protection and repair of concrete structures. Test methods. Determination of slant shear strength. | Status: Current, Confirmed

1 Scope This European Standard describes a method for the determination of the strength of a structural bond between two concrete substrates. The method can be used to measure the slant shear bond strength in the following combinations:

• — hardened concrete bonded to hardened concrete;
• — fresh concrete bonded to hardened concrete.

The test can be carried out with either dry or wet hardened concrete substrates.
