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.
