Cement - Composition, specifications and conformity criteria for very low heat special cements

This European Standard defines and gives the specifications of six distinct very low heat special cement products and their constituents. The definition of each cement includes the proportions in which the constituents are to be combined to produce these distinct products in a single strength class having a limited heat of hydration value. The definition also includes requirements the constituents have to meet and the mechanical, physical, chemical and heat of hydration requirements for these products. This European Standard also states the conformity criteria and the related rules. Necessary durability requirements are also given.
In addition to the specified requirements, an exchange of additional information between the cement producer and user can be helpful. The procedures for such an exchange are not within the scope of this European Standard but should be dealt with in accordance with national standards or regulations or can be agreed between the parties concerned.
NOTE 1   The word "cement" in this European Standard is used to refer to very low heat special cement unless otherwise indicated.
NOTE 2   The risk of early-age thermal cracking in concrete depends upon the properties and execution and is, therefore, also dependent on factors other than the heat of hydration of the cement.

Zement - Zusammensetzung, Anforderungen und Konformitätskriterien von Sonderzement mit sehr niedriger Hydratationswärme

Diese Europäische Norm legt die Anforderungen an sechs verschiedene Sonderzementprodukte mit sehr niedriger Hydratationswärme und ihre Bestandteile sowie die entsprechenden Definitionen fest. Die Definition jedes Zementes beinhaltet die Anteile der Bestandteile, die erforderlich sind, um jedes dieser Produkte für eine einzelne Festigkeitsklasse mit einem Grenzwert für die Hydratationswärme herzustellen. Sie beinhaltet ferner die Anforderungen an die Bestandteile und an die mechanischen, physikalischen und chemischen Eigenschaften sowie die Anforderungen an die Hydratationswärme für diese Produkte. Darüber hinaus werden in dieser Europäischen Norm die Konformitätskriterien und die entsprechenden Regeln festgelegt. Die notwendigen Anforderungen an die Dauerhaftigkeit sind auch angegeben.
Neben den festgelegten Anforderungen kann ein Austausch von zusätzlichen Informationen zwischen Zementhersteller und -anwender hilfreich sein. Die Vorgehensweisen für einen solchen Informationsaustausch sind nicht Gegenstand von dieser Europäischen Norm. Sie sollten in Übereinstimmung mit nationalen Normen oder Vorschriften festgelegt werden oder können zwischen den Beteiligten vereinbart werden.
ANMERKUNG 1   Sofern nicht anders angegeben, kennzeichnet das Wort „Zement" in dieser Europäischen Norm ausschließlich Sonderzemente mit sehr niedriger Hydratationswärme.
ANMERKUNG 2   Die Gefahr der frühzeitigen wärmebedingten Rissbildung hängt von den Eigenschaften des Betons und von der Ausführung ab und ist daher nicht nur von der Hydratationswärme des Zementes, sondern auch von anderen Faktoren abhängig.

Ciments - Composition, spécifications et critères de conformité de ciments speciaux à très faible chaleur d'hydratation

Cement - Sestava, zahteve in merila skladnosti za posebne cemente z zelo nizko toploto hidratacije

Ta evropski standard določa in vsebuje zahteve za šest različnih posebnih cementnih izdelkov z zelo nizko toploto hidratacije in njihove sestavine. Definicija vsakega cementa vključuje razmerja, v katerih se sestavine združijo, da se proizvedejo ti različni izdelki enega trdnostnega razreda z omejeno vrednostjo toplote hidratacije. Definicija vključuje tudi zahteve, ki jih morajo izpolnjevati sestavine, ter mehanske, fizikalne in kemijske zahteve ter zahteve glede toplote hidratacije za te izdelke. Ta evropski standard določa tudi merila skladnosti in povezana pravila. Navedene so tudi zahteve za potrebno trajnost.
Poleg navedenih zahtev je lahko koristna tudi izmenjava dodatnih informacij med izdelovalcem cementa in uporabnikom. Postopki za takšno izmenjavo ne spadajo v področje uporabe tega evropskega standarda, temveč naj bi se obravnavali v skladu z nacionalnimi standardi ali predpisi ali po dogovoru med vpletenimi stranmi.
OPOMBA 1: Izraz »cement« v tem evropskem standardu se nanaša na poseben cement z zelo nizko toploto hidratacije, če ni navedeno drugače.
OPOMBA 2: Tveganje za termične razpoke v mladem betonu je odvisno od lastnosti in izvedbe ter je torej odvisno tudi od drugih dejavnikov, ne samo od toplote hidratacije cementa.

EN 14216:2015 (E) 3 European foreword This document (EN 14216:2015) 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 January 2016, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by April 2017. 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 14216:2004. Compared to the version EN 14216:2004 the following major changes have been included in this document:
— use of the terminology given by the Construction Products Regulation (Regulation (EU) No 305/2011); — a clause “Dangerous substances” has been added; — the former Annex A (informative) “Water-soluble hexavalent chromium” has been deleted; — Annex ZA has been revised in accordance with the Construction Products Regulation (Regulation (EU) No 305/2011). This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association. For relationship with Regulation (EU) No. 305/2011, see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this document. The various stages in the development of a European Standard for common cement, in response to the preliminary mandate given to CEN by the EC and the EFTA, are described in EN 197-1. It is indicated that, in view of the large numbers of different cements involved, it was considered necessary to separate the "common cements", which are now covered by EN 197-1, from special cements, i.e. those with special properties or those having hardening processes not mainly dependent on the hydration of calcium silicates. The low heat property for common cements is covered by EN 197-1. A need for control of heat development during hydration of concrete is referred to in EN 206. Classification of cements with respect to heat of hydration is one method whereby heat development of concrete can be controlled. The purpose of this European Standard is therefore to specify the heat of hydration for very low heat special cements. Composition and other requirements are those specified in EN 197-1 for common cements. Conformity criteria are additionally specified. The requirements in this European Standard are based on the results of tests on cement in accordance with EN 196-1, EN 196-2, EN 196-3, EN 196-5, EN 196-7, EN 196-8 and EN 196-9. The scheme for the evaluation of conformity in EN 197-2 is applicable to very low heat special cements. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organisations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and the United Kingdom. SIST EN 14216:2015



EN 14216:2015 (E) 4 Introduction It is recognized that different cements have different properties and performance. Those performance tests now available (i.e. setting time, strength, soundness and heat of hydration) have been included in this European Standard. In addition, work is being carried out by CEN/TC 51 to identify any additional tests which are needed to specify further performance characteristics of cement. Until further performance tests are available, it is highly recommended that the choice of cement, especially the type and/or strength class in relation to the requirements for durability depending on exposure class and type of construction in which it is incorporated, follows the appropriate standards and/or regulations for concrete valid in the place of use. SIST EN 14216:2015



EN 14216:2015 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard defines and gives the specifications of six distinct very low heat special cement products and their constituents. The definition of each cement includes the proportions in which the constituents are to be combined to produce these distinct products in a single strength class having a limited heat of hydration value. The definition also includes requirements the constituents have to meet and the mechanical, physical, chemical and heat of hydration requirements for these products. This European Standard also states the conformity criteria and the related rules. Necessary durability requirements are also given. In addition to the specified requirements, an exchange of additional information between the cement producer and user can be helpful. The procedures for such an exchange are not within the scope of this European Standard but should be dealt with in accordance with national standards or regulations or can be agreed between the parties concerned. NOTE 1 The word "cement" in this European Standard is used to refer to very low heat special cement unless otherwise indicated. NOTE 2 The risk of early-age thermal cracking in concrete depends upon the properties and execution and is, therefore, also dependent on factors other than the heat of hydration of the cement. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.

EN 14216:2015 (E) 6 4 Very low heat special cement Very low heat special cement is a hydraulic binder, i.e. a finely ground inorganic material which, when mixed with water, forms a paste which sets and hardens by means of hydration reactions and processes and which, after hardening, retains its strength and stability even under water. It has hydration reactions and processes identical to those of common cements (see EN 197-1) but through composition, fineness or reactivity of constituents the hydration process is slower. Very low heat special cement is particularly suitable for dams and other similar massive construction, where the dimensions of the structure have a low surface/volume ratio. In this case, the dispersion of heat, developed during the hydration of the cement, is very slow and therefore it is possible to have large increases in temperature. Thermal gradients then develop between internal and external zones of the concrete setting up internal stress which can be greater than the tensile strength of the concrete and lead to cracking and breakdown. These same properties make very low heat special cement unsuitable for use in reinforced, elevated, concrete structures, e.g. bridges or buildings. NOTE Low heat common cements or low heat low early strength blastfurnace cements conforming to EN 197-1 are suitable for dams and other similar massive construction, depending on the design of the concrete and method of construction. 5 Constituents The constituents of very low heat special cements shall conform to the requirements of the constituents of common cements specified in EN 197-1. 6 Composition and notation The six products in the family of very low heat special cements, covered by this European Standard, and their notation are given in Table 1. They are grouped into three main cement types as follows: — VLH III Blastfurnace cement; — VLH IV Pozzolanic cement; — VLH V Composite cement. The composition of each of the six products in the family of very low heat special cements shall be in accordance with Table 1. For clarity in definition, the requirements for the composition refer to the sum of all main and minor additional constituents. The final cement should be understood as the main and minor additional constituents plus the necessary calcium sulfate and any additives. SIST EN 14216:2015

EN 14216:2015 (E) 8 7 Mechanical, physical, heat of hydration, chemical and durability requirements 7.1 Mechanical requirements - Standard strength The standard strength of a very low heat special cement is the compressive strength determined in accordance with EN 196-1 at 28 d and shall conform to the requirements in Table 2. One class of standard strength is included; class 22,5 (see Table 2). Table 2 — Mechanical and physical requirements given as characteristic values Strength class Compressive strength MPa Initial
setting time Soundness (expansion) Standard strength 28 d min mm 22,5 ≥ 22,5 ≤ 42,5 ≥ 75 ≤ 10 7.2 Physical requirements 7.2.1 Initial setting time The initial setting time, determined in accordance with EN 196-3, shall conform to the requirement in Table 2. 7.2.2 Soundness The expansion, determined in accordance with EN 196-3, shall conform to the requirement in Table 2. 7.2.3 Heat of hydration The heat of hydration of very low heat special cements shall not exceed the characteristic value of 220 J/g, determined in accordance with either EN 196-8 at 7 d or in accordance with EN 196-9 at 41 h. A pre-normative research project has demonstrated the equivalence of test results for EN 196-8 at 7 d and EN 196-9 at 41 h. Nevertheless, in case of dispute between laboratories, the method to be applied should be agreed. 7.3 Chemical requirements The properties of the cements of the cement type shown in column 3 of Table 3 shall conform to the requirements listed in column 4 of this table when tested in accordance with the standard referred to in column 2.

The choice of cement, from this European Standard, particularly as regards type and heat of hydration for different applications and exposure classes shall follow the appropriate standards and/or regulations for concrete or mortar valid in the place of use. The mortar or concrete made from very low heat special cements requires additional protection from drying out and from carbonation during curing. Frost resistance of very low heat special cement concrete should be suitable for the exposure conditions in the place of use. 7.5 Dangerous substances National regulations on dangerous substances may require verification and declaration on release, and sometimes content, when construction products covered by this standard are placed on those markets. In the absence of European harmonized test methods, verification and declaration on release/content should be done taking into account national provisions in the place of use. NOTE An informative database covering European and national provisions on dangerous substances is available at the Construction web site on EUROPA accessed through: http://ec.europa.eu/enterprise/construction/cpd-ds/. 8 Standard designation Very low heat special cements shall be identified by the notation of the cement type as specified in Table 1 and the figure 22,5 indicating the standard strength class (see 7.1).

The properties, test methods and the minimum testing frequencies for the autocontrol testing by the manufacturer are specified in Table 4. For cement not being dispatched continuously testing frequencies and other details, see EN 197-2. Alternative test methods could be used provided that they have been validated in accordance with the appropriate provisions in the cited standards of the reference test methods. In the event of a dispute, only the reference methods are used. NOTE 1 For certification of constancy of performance by a notified body, conformity of cement with this European Standard is evaluated in accordance with EN 197-2. NOTE 2 This European Standard does not deal with acceptance inspection at delivery. The compliance of the very low heat special cements with the requirements of this European Standard and with the stated values (including classes) shall be demonstrated by: — assessment of the performance of the construction product, — factory production control by the manufacturer, including product assessment.

Conformity shall be evaluated on the basis of continual sampling using spot samples taken at the point of release and on the basis of the test results obtained on all autocontrol samples taken during the control period. SIST EN 14216:2015



EN 14216:2015 (E) 12 9.2.2 Statistical conformity criteria 9.2.2.1 General Conformity shall be formulated in terms of a statistical criterion based on: — the specified characteristic values for mechanical, physical and chemical properties as given in 7.1, 7.2, and 7.3 of this European Standard; — the percentile Pk on which the specified characteristic value is based, as given in Table 5; — the allowable probability of acceptance CR, as given in Table 5.

The larger the sample size (number of test results), the better the approximation. The selected probability of acceptance CR controls the degree of approximation by the sampling plan. Conformity with the requirements of this European Standard shall be verified either by variables or by attributes, as described in 9.2.2.2 and 9.2.2.3 as specified in Table 4. The control period shall be 12 months. 9.2.2.2 Inspection by variables For this inspection the test results are assumed to be normally distributed. Conformity is verified when Formula (1) and Formula (2), as relevant, are satisfied: Lskx≥⋅−A (1) and Uskx≤⋅+A (2) where x is the arithmetic mean of the totality of the autocontrol test results in the control period; s is the standard deviation of the totality of the autocontrol test results in the control period; kA is the acceptability constant; L is the specified lower limit given in Table 2 referred to in 7.1; U is the specified upper limit given in Table 2 and Table 3 referred to in Clause 7. SIST EN 14216:2015



EN 14216:2015 (E) 13 The acceptability constant kA depends on the percentile Pk on which the characteristic value is based, on the allowable probability of acceptance CR and on the number n of the test results.

FprEN 14216:2013 (E) 3 Foreword This document (FprEN 14216:2013) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 51 “Cement and building limes”, the secretariat of which is held by NBN. This document is currently submitted to the Unique Acceptance Procedure. This document will supersede EN 14216:2004. 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 Regulation(s), see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this document. This document includes a Bibliography. The various stages in the development of a European Standard for common cement, in response to the preliminary Mandate given to CEN by the EC and the EFTA, are described in EN 197-1. It is indicated that, in view of the large numbers of different cements involved, it was considered necessary to separate the "common cements", which are now covered by EN 197-1, from special cements i.e. those with special properties or those having hardening processes not mainly dependent on the hydration of calcium silicates. The low heat property for common cements is covered by EN 197-1. A need for control of heat development during hydration of concrete is referred to in EN 206-1. Classification of cements with respect to heat of hydration is one method whereby heat development of concrete can be controlled. The purpose of this European Standard is therefore to specify the heat of hydration for very low heat special cements. Composition and other requirements are those specified in EN 197-1 for common cements. Conformity criteria are additionally specified.
The requirements in this European Standard are based on the results of tests on cement in accordance with EN 196, Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 5, Part 7, Part 8 and Part 9. The scheme for the evaluation of conformity in EN 197-2 is applicable to very low heat special cements.

FprEN 14216:2013 (E) 4 Introduction It is recognised that different cements have different properties and performance. Those performance tests now available (i.e. setting time, strength, soundness and heat of hydration) have been included in this European Standard. In addition, work is being carried out by CEN/TC 51 to identify any additional tests which are needed to specify further performance characteristics of cement. Until further performance tests are available it is highly recommended that the choice of cement, especially the type and/or strength class in relation to the requirements for durability depending on exposure class and type of construction in which it is incorporated, follows the appropriate standards and/or regulations for concrete valid in the place of use. kSIST FprEN 14216:2013



FprEN 14216:2013 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard defines and gives the specifications of six distinct very low heat special cement products and their constituents. The definition of each cement includes the proportions in which the constituents are to be combined to produce these distinct products in a single strength class having a limited heat of hydration value. The definition also includes requirements the constituents have to meet and the mechanical, physical, chemical and heat of hydration requirements for these products. This European Standard also states the conformity criteria and the related rules. Necessary durability requirements are also given. In addition to the specified requirements, an exchange of additional information between the cement producer and user can be helpful. The procedures for such an exchange are not within the scope of this European Standard but should be dealt with in accordance with national standards or regulations or can be agreed between the parties concerned. NOTE 1 The word "cement" in this European Standard is used to refer to very low heat special cement unless otherwise indicated. NOTE 2 The risk of early-age thermal cracking in concrete depends upon the properties and execution and is, therefore, also dependent on factors other than the heat of hydration of the cement.

FprEN 14216:2013 (E) 6 after hardening, retains its strength and stability even under water. It has hydration reactions and processes identical to those of common cements (see EN 197-1) but through composition, fineness or reactivity of constituents the hydration process is slower. Very low heat special cement is particularly suitable for dams and other similar massive construction, where the dimensions of the structure have a low surface/volume ratio. In this case, the dispersion of heat, developed during the hydration of the cement, is very slow and therefore it is possible to have large increases in temperature. Thermal gradients then develop between internal and external zones of the concrete setting up internal stress which can be greater than the tensile strength of the concrete and lead to cracking and breakdown. These same properties make very low heat special cement unsuitable for use in reinforced, elevated, concrete structures, e.g. bridges or buildings. NOTE Low heat common cements or low early strength blastfurnace cements conforming to EN 197-1 are suitable for dams and other similar massive construction, depending on the design of the concrete and method of construction. 5 Constituents The constituents of very low heat special cements shall conform to the requirements of the constituents of common cements specified in EN 197-1. 6 Composition and notation The 6 products in the family of very low heat special cements, covered by this European Standard, and their notation are given in Table 1. They are grouped into three main cement types as follows:  VLH III Blastfurnace cement;  VLH IV Pozzolanic cement;  VLH V Composite cement. The composition of each of the 6 products in the family of very low heat special cements shall be in accordance with Table 1. For clarity in definition, the requirements for the composition refer to the sum of all main and minor additional constituents. The final cement should be understood as the main and minor additional constituents plus the necessary calcium sulfate and any additives.

7.2 Physical requirements 7.2.1 Initial setting time The initial setting time, determined in accordance with EN 196-3, shall conform to the requirement in Table 2. 7.2.2 Soundness The expansion, determined in accordance with EN 196-3, shall conform to the requirement in Table 2. 7.2.3 Heat of hydration The heat of hydration of very low heat special cements shall not exceed the characteristic value of 220 J/g, determined in accordance with either EN 196-8 at 7 days or in accordance with EN 196-9 at 41 h. A pre-normative research project has demonstrated the equivalence of test results for EN 196-8 at 7 days and EN 196-9 at 41 h. Nevertheless, in case of dispute between laboratories, the method to be applied should be agreed. 7.3 Chemical requirements The properties of the cements of the cement type shown in column 3 of Table 3 shall conform to the requirements listed in column 4 of this table when tested in accordance with the standard referred to in column 2.

7.4 Durability requirements In many applications, particularly in severe environmental conditions, the choice of cement has an influence on the durability of concrete, mortar and grouts, e.g. frost resistance, chemical resistance and protection of reinforcement. The choice of cement, from this European Standard, particularly as regards type and heat of hydration for different applications and exposure classes shall follow the appropriate standards and/or regulations for concrete or mortar valid in the place of use. The mortar or concrete made from very low heat special cements requires additional protection from drying out and from carbonation during curing. Frost resistance of very low heat special cement concrete should be suitable for the exposure conditions in the place of use. 7.5 Dangerous substances National regulations on dangerous substances may require verification and declaration on release, and sometimes content, when construction products covered by this standard are placed on those markets. In the absence of European harmonised test methods, verification and declaration on release/content should be done taking into account national provisions in the place of use.

EXAMPLE 1 Very low heat special cement with a granulated blastfurnace slag (S) content between 81 % and 95 % of strength class 22,5, with a very low heat of hydration is identified by: Very low heat special blastfurnace cement EN 14216 – VLH III/C 22,5 EXAMPLE 2 Very low heat special cement with a natural pozzolana (P) content between 36 % and 55 % of strength class 22,5 with a very low heat of hydration is identified by: Very low heat special pozzolanic cement EN 14216 – VLH IV/B (P) 22,5 EXAMPLE 3 Very low heat special composite cement containing between 18 % and 30 % by mass of granulated blastfurnace slag (S) and between 18 % and 30 % by mass of siliceous fly ash (V) of strength class 22,5 with a very low heat of hydration is identified by: Very low heat special composite cement EN 14216 – VLH V/A (S-V) 22,5 9 Conformity criteria 9.1 General requirements Conformity of the 6 products to this European Standard shall be continually evaluated on the basis of testing of spot samples. The properties, test methods and the minimum testing frequencies for the autocontrol testing by the manufacturer are specified in Table 4. For cement not being dispatched continuously testing frequencies and other details, see EN 197-2. Alternative test methods could be used provided that they have been validated in accordance with the appropriate provisions in the cited standards of the reference test methods. In the event of a dispute, only the reference methods are used. NOTE 1 For certification of constancy of performance by a notified body, conformity of cement with this European Standard is evaluated in accordance with EN 197-2. NOTE 2 This European Standard does not deal with acceptance inspection at delivery. The compliance of the very low heat special cements with the requirements of this European Standard and with the stated values (including classes) shall be demonstrated by:  determination of the product type,  factory production control by the manufacturer, including product assessment. kSIST FprEN 14216:2013
