1 Scope
This European Standard specifies definitions and requirements for admixtures for use in concrete.
It covers admixtures for plain, reinforced and prestressed concrete which are used in site mixed, ready mixed
concrete and precast concrete.
The performance requirements in this standard apply to admixtures used in concrete of normal consistence.
They may not be applicable to admixtures intended for other types of concrete such as semi-dry and earth
moist mixes.
Provisions governing the practical application of admixtures in the production of concrete, i.e. requirements
concerning composition, mixing, placing, curing etc. of concrete containing admixtures are not part of this
standard.

3.1.3
recommended range of dosage
dosages between limits expressed in % by mass of cement which the manufacturer recommends for the
product based on experience on site
Note 1 to entry: The use of the recommended dosage does not imply that compliance with this standard will be met
over the whole range. Trial tests should be carried out with the materials to be used on site to find the dosage necessary
to achieve the required result.

upper limit of the recommended range of dosage
3.1.5
reference concrete and mortar
concrete and mortar as specified in EN 480-1 for testing admixtures for conformity with this standard
