Proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Concrete Block Paving (PAVE AFRICA 2003)12th 15th October 2003 ISBN Number: 0-958-46091-4 Sun City, South AfricaProceedings produced by: Document Transformation Technologies Conference Organised by: Conference PlannersABRASION TEST Methods FOR Paving Units COMPAREDP ettit, TopPave standards for Paving products have been prepared by Comit Europ en de NormalisationTechnical Committee 178 (CEN/TC178). In the specific case of block Paving , separate standardshave been prepared for clay and concrete block Paving Technical Committees were requested to ensure that a specific property should be measuredby the same test method regardless of the product material. Although this ideal situation could notbe realized in the first generation of European Paving standards, it is a requirement of CEN forsecond generation standards. Against this background, Interpave, the UK trade association forprecast concrete Paving and the Brick Development Association (BDA) the UK clay pavingassociation entered into a joint research project to evaluate a number of Abrasion test Methods withthe objective of establishing a universal method which would be equally suitable for both clay andconcrete Paving concrete block paver types, 3 concrete flag types and 4 clay pa
Whilst CEN have agreed, as an expedient, to permit 2 abrasion resistance tests for concrete block pavers in the first generation of European standards it is clear that the rules of having only one ...
