Masonry cement - Part 1: Composition, specifications and conformity criteria

This European Standard specifies the definition and composition of masonry cements as commonly used in Europe for the production of mortar for bricklaying and blocklaying and for rendering and plastering. It includes physical, mechanical and chemical requirements and defines strength classes. EN 413-1 also states the conformity criteria and the related rules. Necessary durability requirements are also given.
NOTE   For normal applications the information given in EN 413-1, in EN 998-1 and in EN 998-2 is generally sufficient. However, in special cases, an exchange of additional information between the masonry cement producer and user can be helpful. The details of such an exchange are not within the scope of EN 413-1 but should be dealt with in accordance with national standards or other regulations or can be agreed between the parties concerned.

Putz- und Mauerbinder - Teil 1: Zusammensetzung, Anforderungen und Konformitätskriterien

Diese Europäische Norm legt die Definition und die Zusammensetzung von Putz- und Mauerbindern, die üblicherweise in Europa für Putz- und Mauerarbeiten verwendet werden, fest. Sie enthält physikalische, mechanische und chemische Anforderungen und definiert Festigkeitsklassen. Darüber hinaus enthält EN 413-1 die Konformitätskriterien und die damit verbundenen Regeln sowie notwendige Anforderungen an die Dauerhaftigkeit.
ANMERKUNG In der Regel sind die in EN 413-1, EN 998-1 und EN 998-2 enthaltenen Angaben für die übliche Anwendung ausreichend. In besonderen Fällen kann jedoch ein Austausch von zusätzlichen Informationen zwischen dem Hersteller von Putz- und Mauerbindern und dem Abnehmer hilfreich sein. Die Einzelheiten eines solchen Informationsaustauschs sind nicht Gegenstand von EN 413-1; sie sollten in Übereinstimmung mit nationalen Normen oder mit anderen Regelungen festgelegt werden oder können zwischen den betreffenden Parteien vereinbart werden.

Ciment à maçonner - Partie 1: Composition, spécifications et critères de conformité

La présente Norme européenne spécifie la définition et la composition des ciments à maçonner
généralement utilisés en Europe pour la production de mortier destiné au montage de briques et de
blocs, ainsi qu’aux enduits intérieurs et extérieurs. Elle inclut les exigences relatives à leurs propriétés
physiques, mécaniques et chimiques, et définit les classes de résistance. L’EN 413-1 stipule également
les critères de conformité et les règles associées. Elle donne également les exigences de durabilité
nécessaires.
NOTE Pour des applications normales, les informations données dans l’EN 413-1, l’EN 998-1 et l’EN 998-2
sont généralement suffisantes. Toutefois, dans des cas spéciaux, un échange d’informations supplémentaires
entre le producteur de ciment à maçonner et l’utilisateur peut se révéler utile. Les détails d’un tel échange ne
relèvent pas du domaine d’application de l’EN 413-1, mais il convient de les traiter conformément aux normes
nationales ou autres règlements nationaux ; ils peuvent également faire l’objet d’un accord entre les parties
concernées.

Foreword
This document (EN 413-1:2011) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 51 "Cement
and building limes", the secretariat of which is held by NBN.
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an
identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by October 2011, and conflicting national standards
shall be withdrawn at the latest by October 2011.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. CEN [and/or CENELEC] shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such
patent rights.
This document supersedes EN 413-1:2004.
The European Standard, EN 413, “Masonry cement”, consists of the following parts:
Part 1: Composition, specifications and conformity criteria;
Part 2: Test methods.
This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and
the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive(s).
For relationship with EU Directive(s), see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this
document.
EN 413-1 has been prepared to provide a range of materials from which users of EN 998-1, EN 998-2
and EN 1996-1-1 (Eurocode 6) can select with confidence to achieve the level of strength and
durability required of masonry and rendering.
The main changes from EN 413-1:2004 are as follows:
- introduction of a class MC 22,5 (air-entrained) cement;
- removal of references to EN 459-2 for compressive strength testing;
- the upper limit for SO content is increased.
According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the
following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria,
Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary,
Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal,
Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom.
Introduction
Masonry cement should be defined and specified precisely with sufficiently stringent requirements to
satisfy those who are responsible for the design and construction of buildings and other structures for
maximum safety and durability.
This European Standard is a carefully balanced document that has been thoroughly discussed, taking
into account the need to provide clear definitions and specifications and to arrive at a usable standard.
The requirements of this European Standard are, where appropriate, based on the results from tests on
masonry cement in accordance with EN 196 'Methods of testing cement'. Strength is measured on a
standard mortar prepared in accordance with EN 196-1 with a fixed water/cement ratio and compacted
using the equipment described in EN 196-1. However, some additional tests have been found necessary
and these tests are described in EN 413-2.
CEN/TC 51 recognises the importance of workability (cohesivity at standard consistence) of mortars
prepared from masonry cements. A test method is available in CR 13933, and in which results of a test
programme are also given. This test method was not found valid for standard requirement purposes due
to its lack of reproducibility, however it provides valuable information for the manufacturers and users on
the property in use of masonry cements.
The properties of bond and durability (resistance to frost and/or chemical attack) of mortars are very
important and appropriate mortar tests are being developed by CEN/TC 125, Masonry. In many
applications, particularly in severe environmental conditions, the choice of the type/class of masonry
cement from EN 413-1 can influence the durability of mortar, e.g. in respect of frost and chemical
resistance.
1 Scope
This European Standard specifies the definition and composition of masonry cements as commonly used
in Europe for the production of mortar for bricklaying and blocklaying and for rendering and plastering. It
includes physical, mechanical and chemical requirements and defines strength classes. EN 413-1 also
states the conformity criteria and the related rules. Necessary durability requirements are also given.
NOTE For normal applications the information given in EN 413-1, in EN 998-1 and in EN 998-2 is generally
sufficient. However, in special cases, an exchange of additional information between the masonry cement
producer and user can be helpful. The details of such an exchange are not within the scope of EN 413-1 but
should be dealt with in accordance with national standards or other regulations or can be agreed between the
parties concerned.
