This European Standard was approved by CEN on 25 September 2023.

CEN members are bound to comply with the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations which stipulate the conditions for giving this
European Standard the status of a national standard without any alteration. Up-to-date lists and bibliographical references
concerning such national standards may be obtained on application to the CEN-CENELEC Management Centre or to any CEN
member.
This European Standard exists in three official versions (English, French, German). A version in any other language made by
translation under the responsibility of a CEN member into its own language and notified to the CEN-CENELEC Management
Centre has the same status as the official versions.

European foreword
This document (EN 13877-1:2023) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 227 “Road
materials”, the secretariat of which is held by BSI.
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an
identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by May 2024, and conflicting national standards shall be
withdrawn at the latest by May 2024.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. CEN shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
This document supersedes EN 13877-1:2013.
— the normative references have been updated;
— the scope has been adapted;
— lean concrete has been removed;
— the requirements on the density of fresh concrete have been removed;
— fibres have been included in the definition of reinforcement;
— the notes in Table 1 have been updated;
— Table 3, Dimensions for tie bars, has been removed;
— EN 197-1, EN 13863-6 and EN 14889-1 have been added to the normative references;
— the Bibliography has been updated.
EN 13877, Concrete pavements, is currently composed with the following parts:
— Part 1: Materials
— Part 2: Functional requirements for concrete pavements
— Part 3: Specifications for dowels to be used in concrete pavements
This document refers to EN 206. In accordance with the scope of EN 206 some additional or different
requirements are necessary for pavements, particularly to comply with safety of users, durability,
environment and health.
Any feedback and questions on this document should be directed to the users’ national standards body.
A complete listing of these bodies can be found on the CEN website.
According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organisations of the
following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia,
Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland,
Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Republic of North
Macedonia, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Türkiye and the United
Kingdom.
1 Scope
This document specifies requirements for the constituents (concrete and other materials) of concrete
pavements, cast in situ. Concrete compacted by rollers is not covered by this document.
This document covers concrete pavements for roads and other traffic-bearing structures.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
ISO and IEC maintain terminological databases for use in standardization at the following addresses:
— IEC Electropedia: available at https://www.electropedia.org/
— ISO Online browsing platform: available at https://www.iso.org/obp
3.1
concrete pavement
concrete layer capable of withstanding direct passage of traffic and environmental effects
Note 1 to entry: Several types exist: jointed unreinforced, jointed reinforced, continuously reinforced.
3.2
exposed aggregate concrete surface
surface finish for concrete pavements achieved by removing the surface mortar, in order to expose the
coarse aggregate
3.3
curing compound
product that can be applied on the surface of newly placed concrete to minimize the loss of moisture and
in the case of pigmented compounds to reflect heat, minimizing heating up of the concrete
3.4
dowel
smooth bar which extends into adjoining slabs at a joint in a concrete pavement, to improve load transfer
and to avoid faulting
3.5
tie bar
bar used to interconnect adjacent concrete slabs along joints, normally longitudinal joints, in order to
prevent the slabs from horizontally drifting apart, or used for cross-stitching of cracks or joints
3.6
reinforcement
bars, meshes or fibres embedded in concrete to control cracking and/or to provide tensile capacity
