Schemes of Interlaboratory tests on Mortars for masonry
SPECIFIC ACTIVITIES (TABLE OF CONTENT)
Beginning with October 2010, the Testing Laboratory of CEPROCIM may develop a new scheme of Interlaboratory Tests at national level, on Masonry mortars, in the conditions of reunion of a minimum statistic of participants; interlaboratory tests will have a yearly frequency.
In order to send your participation request, we kindly ask you to access “Contact” within present section.
