Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

ISO 23945-1:2022(E)
Introduction
Sprayed concrete is widely used for the stabilization of structures in a very short time and for concrete
applications without using moulds. In addition to being ideal for ground support in tunnelling and
mining, sprayed concrete is also used in repairs, restoration, new construction and many other fields.
The requirements for properties, test methods, standards and specifications for the spray-forming
process of concrete are different from those of cast-forming concrete. This document is intended to
provide a normative test method for determining the effect on the setting time of cement paste by flash
setting accelerating admixtures for sprayed concrete.
This document is applied under various climatic and geographical conditions, various levels of
protection and under different established regional traditions and experiences. Consequently, this
document includes conditions for tests covering standard test conditions and tropical and subtropical
regional environments.
This document is intended for use with other parts of the ISO 23945 series, which are intended to be
developed and which will provide requirements associated with the level of quality specified and the
methods to be employed for the execution of sprayed concrete.
