What is BS EN 1504-10 - Quality control of concrete structures about?
BS EN 1504-10 is the tenth part of the multi-series standard that is applicable to products and systems for the protection and repair of concrete structures.
BS EN 1504-10 gives requirements for:
- Substrate condition before and during application of systems and products
- Storage of systems and products
- Structural stability during preparation, protection and repair
- Methods of protection and repair
- Quality control for execution of work
- Maintenance of the structure
BS EN 1504-10 aids you in quality control of concrete structures and evaluation of conformity.
Who is BS EN 1504-10 - Quality control of concrete structures for?
BS EN 1504-10 on site application of products and systems and quality control of concrete structures is useful for:
- Construction industries
- Contractors
- Builders
- Testers of concrete structures
- Maintenances and constructors of concrete structures
Why should you use BS EN 1504-10 - Quality control of concrete structures?
BS EN 1504-10 defines and specifies products and systems for the protection and repair of concrete structures. BS EN 1504-10 standard defines and specifies site application of these products and systems and quality control of the works.
The execution of this work is an important and integral part of the complex process of protection and repair, and BS EN 1504-10 specifies how it shall be carried out. The specifications in BS EN 1504-10 are part of the definition of the intended use for the relevant products and systems.
BS EN 1504-10 helps you, maintain the quality of concrete by checking for Cracks and joints and Defects caused by reinforcement corrosion.
BS EN 1504-10 gives you guidance on quality control tests and observations.
What’s changed since the last update?
BS EN 1504-10:2017 supersedes BS EN 1504‑10:2003, which is withdrawn.
In comparison with EN 1504-10:2003, the following significant changes have been made:
- A clarification of the scope of the standard
- A deletion of the normative reference "env iso 8502-1, preparation of steel substrates before application of paints or related products – tests for the assessment of surface cleanliness – part 1: field test for soluble iron corrosion products (iso/tr 8502-1:1991)" in table 5 "summary of tests and observations for quality control", test or observation number 19 because it has been withdrawn. A replacement of the method is under development by iso/dis 8502-12
- Additions of terms and definitions
- Clarifications of the title, recommendations and requirements in clause 5
- Clarification of clause 6 by adding 6.1 and 6.2
- Replaced reference to specific clauses with a reference to annex a in method 1.4 "surface bandaging of cracks" in table 1 (preparation, application and quality control columns) and more
