EN 1015-2 – Mortar for Masonry: Bulk Sampling and Preparation of Test Mortars

  3. EN 1015-2

EN 1015-2 is the European standard on bulk sampling of mortars for masonry and the preparation of test mortars. It is published in Germany as DIN EN 1015-2:2007-05, the German version of EN 1015-2:1998+A1:2006, which replaces DIN EN 1015-2:1998-12.

Its published contents cover sampling from batch mixers, conveyors and pipes, large and small hoppers and containers, heaps, sacks and silo vehicles, followed by division of the bulk sample, packaging and a sampling certificate. It also covers preparing test mortars from dry constituents and water, or from factory-made premixed mortars and binders, with mixing in a mixer to EN 196-1 or a forced-action mixer. Labs follow it so that test mortars are sampled and mixed the same way before further testing.

Laboratory mortar mixers such as the NG-DMM digital mortar mixer are used for preparing test mortars to EN 1015-2. If you need help matching EN 1015-2 requirements to your parts or setup, contact our team.
