Ground granulated blast furnace slag for use in concrete, mortar and grout - Part 1: Definitions, specifications and conformity criteria

This European Standard specifies requirements for the chemical and physical properties as well as quality control procedures for ground granulated blastfurnace slag for use as a type II addition in the production of concrete, including in particular cast-in-situ or prefabricated structural concrete conforming to EN 206-1. Ground granulated blastfurnace slag conforming to this European Standard may also be used in mortars and grouts.
Ground granulated blastfurnace slag containing any added materials other than grinding aids, is not within the scope of this European Standard. It is also not within the scope of this European Standard to specify provisions governing the practical application of ground granulated blastfurnace slag in the production of concrete, mortar or grout, i.e. requirements concerning composition, mixing, placing, curing etc. As regards such provisions, reference should be made to other European or national standards, such as EN 206-1.

Hüttensandmehl zur Verwendung in Beton, Mörtel und Einpressmörtel - Teil 1: Definitionen, Anforderungen und Konformitätskriterien

Diese Europäische Norm legt Anforderungen an die chemischen und physikalischen Eigenschaften sowie Verfahren für die Güteüberwachung von Hüttensandmehl fest, der als Zusatzstoff Typ II bei der Herstellung von Beton, einschließlich besonders auch von Ortbeton oder Betonfertigteilen für tragende Zwecke nach EN 206 1, verwendet wird. Hüttensandmehl, der dieser Norm entspricht, darf auch in Mörteln und Einpress¬mörteln verwen¬det werden.
Hüttensandmehl, das außer Mahlhilfen noch andere Zusatzstoffe enthält, ist nicht Gegenstand dieser Norm. Festlegungen für die praktische Anwendung von Hüttensandmehl bei der Herstellung von Beton, Mörtel oder Ein¬pressmörtel, d. h. Anforderungen an die Zusammensetzung, das Mischen, den Einbau, die Nach¬behandlung usw., sind ebenfalls nicht Gegenstand dieser Norm. Für diesbezügliche Festlegungen wird auf andere Europäische oder nationale Normen, wie z. B. EN 206 1, verwiesen.

Laitier granulé de haut-fourneau moulu pour utilisation dans le béton, mortier et coulis - Partie 1: Définitions, exigences et criteres de conformité

La présente Norme européenne définit les exigences en termes de propriétés chimiques et physiques, ainsi
que de procédures de contrôle qualité, pour le laitier granulé de haut-fourneau moulu pour utilisation en tant
qu'addition de type II dans la production de béton, notamment le béton armé moulé dans le sol ou le béton de
charpente préfabriqué conformément à l'EN 206-1. Le laitier granulé de haut-fourneau moulu conformément à
la présente Norme européenne peut également être utilisé dans des mortiers et des coulis.
Le laitier granulé de haut-fourneau moulu contenant tout additif autre qu'un adjuvant de broyage, ne relève
pas du domaine d'application de la présente Norme européenne. Cette dernière n’a pas non plus pour objet
de définir des dispositions régissant l'application pratique du laitier granulé de haut-fourneau moulu dans la
production de béton, de mortier ou de coulis, c'est-à-dire les exigences relatives à la composition, au mélange,
à la mise en oeuvre, à la cure, etc. En ce qui concerne de telles dispositions, il convient de faire référence à
d'autres Normes européennes ou nationales, telles que l'EN 206-1.

Overview

EN 15167-1:2006 is a CEN (European) standard that defines requirements, definitions and conformity criteria for ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) used as a Type II addition in concrete, mortar and grout. The standard sets chemical and physical characteristic values, quality control (factory autocontrol) and statistical conformity procedures for GGBS intended for structural applications in accordance with EN 206-1. It does not cover added materials (other than limited grinding aids) or practical placing and curing procedures for concrete - those are covered by other standards such as EN 206-1.

Key topics & technical requirements

• Constituent chemistry: GGBS must be predominantly vitrified slag with at least two-thirds by mass of (CaO + MgO + SiO2). The ratio (CaO + MgO)/SiO2 must exceed 1.0.
• Limits on additives: No added materials except grinding aids. Grinding aids ≤ 1.0% (by mass) and organic content ≤ 0.2%.
• Chemical characteristic values (examples specified):
  • Magnesium oxide ≤ 18%
  • Sulfide ≤ 2.0%
  • Sulfate ≤ 2.5%
  • Loss on ignition (corrected) ≤ 3.0%
  • Chloride ≤ 0.10% (unless higher value is declared)
  • Moisture ≤ 1.0% (method in Annex A)
• Physical requirements:
  • Fineness (Blaine air-permeability) ≥ 275 m2/kg.
  • Activity index (50:50 mix with a specified test cement) ≥ 45% at 7 days and ≥ 70% at 28 days (EN 196-1 test method).
  • Initial setting time of a 50:50 blend must be no more than twice that of the test cement (EN 196-3).
• Test cement specification: The standard defines properties for the test cement used in activity/index and setting tests (CEM I, strength class ≥ 42.5, Blaine ≥ 300 m2/kg, C3A 6–12%, alkali 0.5–1.2%).
• Quality control & conformity: Factory autocontrol, sampling plans and statistical conformity criteria are required. EN 15167-2 covers conformity evaluation details.
• Packaging, labelling and sampling provisions included; Annex A gives a moisture determination method.

Applications & who uses it

• Target users:
  • GGBS producers and quality managers - to certify product compliance.
  • Concrete, mortar and grout manufacturers - to select compliant GGBS for durable structural mixes.
  • Testing laboratories, specifiers, procurement officers, structural engineers and regulators - for verification, procurement and regulatory compliance.
• Practical uses:
  • Specifying compliant GGBS for cast-in-situ and precast structural concrete, as well as mortars and grouts.
  • Establishing factory production control, sampling plans and documentation for CE-marking and contracts.

Related standards

• EN 206-1 (concrete specification and durability)
• EN 15167-2 (conformity evaluation)
• EN 197-1 (cement composition/specs)
• EN 196 series (test methods: strength, chemical analysis, setting time, fineness, sampling)
