• Provide protection to the prestressing steel against corrosion; • Provide a bond between the prestressing steel and the ducts where required for the design of the structure; • Allow the transfer of compressive stresses in the structure in a direction transverse to the internal tendons; • Fill all voids where water may accumulate and cause frost damage. The testing regimes anticipated by this European Standard include three levels: (1) Initial type and audit testing in accordance with EN 447; (2) Suitability testing for confirmation of the selected grout for a specific project in accordance with this standard; (3) Inspection during the production of grout on a specific project in accordance with this standard. The test methods for each of the regimes are given in EN 445.

3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1 grout homogeneous mixture of cement and water, it may contain admixtures and additions 3.2 grouting injection of grout into ducts in a continuous operation 3.3 tendon assembly of prestressing steel and sheath with anchorages and all necessary auxiliary components to permit grouting, either placed internally or externally to the concrete structure 3.4 specialist contractor contractor or construction enterprise which carries out grouting of tendons 4 Documentation 4.1 Execution specification Before starting any part of the grouting works, the execution specification relevant to that part of the works shall be complete and available.
The following items shall be included in the execution specification: reference to this European standard;
reference to ETAs for the post-tensioning kit;
reference to other relevant national regulations and standards; information and requirements for the particular project prepared to supplement and qualify the requirements of the above listed documents; drawings and other technical documents needed for the execution. In addition where relevant, procedures shall be established for: making alterations to previously agreed requirements; distribution, the filing and recording of technical documents used for the works.
4.2 Quality plan If a quality control procedure for grouting works is required by the execution specification, it shall be available at the site. 4.3 Execution documentation The specialist contractor shall keep available on site written method statements covering materials, equipment, grouting procedures and inspection all adapted to the extent and complexity of the project. Provisions for the case of unusually low or high temperatures or delayed grouting, if likely to occur during the project duration, shall be specified.
The specialist contractor shall have shop drawings showing the position and details of the inlets and outlets, and the details of the sealing of the tendon anchorages. The specialist contractor shall keep available on site documented records of: materials and grout used; initial type testing according to EN 447; suitability testing according to this European standard; results of the project specific grouting tests, if specified. The specialist contractor shall keep documented records of the conformity of the materials, equipment, grout, grouting operations, and inspection with this standard and the execution specification according to Table 2, Table 3 and Table 4. These records shall be kept for the duration, as required by national provisions. Any eventual corrective actions taken shall also be recorded. If special documentation beyond the requirements of this European standard is required for grouting works, the type and extent of the documentation shall be stated in the execution specification. 5 Materials The individual materials and the grout to be used shall comply with EN 447.
Suitability testing may be waived for structures in Inspection Class 2 subject to there being documented testing during production in accordance with EN 447. Table 1 – Extent of suitability testing
