EN 13279-2 is the European test-method standard describing reference laboratory methods for gypsum binders and gypsum plasters. To match this to your program, talk with our team.
What EN 13279-2 Covers
It provides the reference methods used to evaluate gypsum binders and plasters covered by EN 13279-1, including mechanical properties.
How the Test Is Run
Gypsum specimens are prepared and tested by the applicable reference methods, including flexural and compressive strength where required.
Why It Matters
Verified gypsum properties support plaster performance and classification; flexure and compression fixtures suited to gypsum are essential.
