After drying to constant mass, one face of thespecimen is immersed in 5 to 10 mm of water for a specific period of time and the increase in massdetermined.4 SymbolsM0is (for renovation mortars) the dry mass of the specimen, (g)M1is the mass of the specimen after soaking for 10 min, (g)M2is the mass of the specimen after soaking for 90 min, (g)M3is (for renovation mortars) the mass of the specimen after soaking for 24 h, (g)Cis the coefficient of water absorption for an individual mortar specimen, (kg/(m²min0,5))(for mortars other than renovation mortars) or (kg/m2) (for renovation mortars)Cmis the mean coefficient of water absorption of the sample of mortar due to capillaryaction, (kg/(m² min0,5)) (for mortars other than renovation mortars) or (kg/m2) (forrenovation mortars)SIST EN 1015-18:2004
