Foreword
This document (EN 480-1:2006) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 104 “Concrete and
related products”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN.
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text or by endorsement, at the latest by May 2007, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the
latest by May 2007.
This document supersedes EN 480-1:1997.
This European Standard is part of the series EN 480 Admixtures for concrete, mortar and grout – Test
methods which comprises the following:
Part 1 Reference concrete and reference mortar for testing
Part 2 Determination of setting time
Part 4 Determination of bleeding of concrete
Part 5 Determination of capillary absorption
Part 6 Infrared analysis
Part 8 Determination of the conventional dry material content
Part 10 Determination of water soluble chloride content
Part 11 Determination of air void characteristics in hardened concrete
Part 12 Determination of the alkali content of admixtures
Part 13 Reference masonry mortar for testing mortar admixtures
Part 14 Determination of the effect on corrosion susceptibility of reinforcing steel by potentiostatic electro-
chemical test
This standard is applicable together with the standards of the series EN 934 Admixtures for concrete, mortar
and grout – Concrete admixtures.
