This document will supersede EN 480-15:2013.
This document has been drafted by Subcommittee 3 (SC 3) of CEN/TC 104 “Admixtures for concrete,
mortar and grout”.
This document is part of the series EN 480 Admixtures for concrete, mortar and grout — Test methods,
which comprises the following parts:
— 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
