Overview
This standard specifies the couplet method for determining the tensile and compressive load capacity and load displacement characteristics of wall ties embedded in mortar joints. The test is intended for ties used for connecting together two leaves of masonry and for the mortar-bedded end of ties for connecting masonry to other structures. The committee responsible for this standard is NA 005-06-04 AA "Prüfverfahren (Sp CEN/TC 125/WG 4)" ("Test methods (Mirror Committee of CEN/TC 125/WG 4)") at DIN.
Please get in touch with the relevant contact person at DIN if you have problems understanding the content of the standard or need advice on how to apply it.
