Testing fresh concrete - Part 4: Degree of compactability
This European standard specifies a method for determining the consistence of fresh concrete by determining
the degree of compactability.
It is not applicable to concrete of which the maximum size of aggregate exceeds 63 mm.
If the degree of compactability is less than 1,04 or more than 1,46, the concrete has a consistence for which
the degree of compactability test is not suitable.
Prüfung von Frischbeton - Teil 4: Verdichtungsmaß
Diese Europäische Norm legt ein Verfahren zur Bestimmung der Konsistenz von Frischbeton durch Berechnung des Verdichtungsmaßes fest.
Diese Norm gilt nicht, wenn das Größtkorn der Gesteinskörnung mehr als 63 mm beträgt.
Wenn das Verdichtungsmaß kleiner als 1,04 oder größer als 1,46 ist, hat der Beton eine Konsistenz, für die die Prüfung des Verdichtungsmaßes nicht geeignet ist.
Essais pour béton frais - Partie 4 : Indice de serrage
La présente Norme européenne prescrit une méthode de détermination de la consistance du béton frais par l’évaluation de son indice de serrage.
Elle n’est pas applicable aux bétons contenant des granulats dont la dimension maximale du plus gros granulat est supérieure à 63 mm.
Si l’indice de serrage est inférieur à 1,04 ou supérieur à 1,46, le béton a une consistance pour laquelle l’essai de l’indice de serrage n'est pas adapté.

CAUTION — When cement is mixed with water, alkali is released. Take precautions to avoid dry cement entering the eyes, mouth and nose whilst mixing concrete. Prevent skin contact with wet cement or concrete by wearing suitable protective clothing. If cement or concrete enters the eye, immediately wash it out thoroughly with clean water and seek medical treatment without delay. Wash wet concrete off the skin immediately. SIST EN 12350-4:2009
