Admixtures for concrete, mortar and grout - Part 1: Common requirements
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 934-1 standard outlines the general requirements for admixtures used in construction. This standard serves as a reference point for other DIN EN 934 standards, such as DIN EN 934-2, DIN EN 934-4, and DIN EN 934-5.
The standard sets forth the essential characteristics and performance requirements for admixtures, which are substances added to concrete, mortar, or grout to enhance their properties. These admixtures can improve various aspects, such as workability, strength, durability, and setting time.
DIN EN 934-1 ensures that the admixtures comply with specified criteria, including their chemical composition, physical properties, and performance indicators. It also provides guidelines for the testing methods and evaluation procedures to assess the effectiveness and safety of admixtures.
