European foreword
This document (prEN 413-1:2018) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 51
“Cement and building limes”, the secretariat of which is held by NBN.
This document will supersede EN 413-1:2011.
The European standard, EN 413, Masonry cement, consists of the following parts:
— Part 1: Composition, specifications and conformity criteria;
— Part 2: Test methods.
This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission
and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU
Directive(s).
For relationship with EU Directive(s), see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this
document.
EN 413-1 has been prepared to provide a range of materials from which users of EN 998-1,
EN 998-2 and EN 1996-1-1 (Eurocode 6) can select with confidence to achieve the level of
strength and durability required of masonry and rendering.
The main changes from EN 413-1:2011 are as follows:
— a new Annex ZA addressing the provisions of the EU Construction Products Regulation (EU)
No: 305/2011.
Introduction
Masonry cement should be defined and specified precisely with sufficiently stringent
requirements to satisfy those who are responsible for the design and construction of buildings
and other structures for maximum safety and durability.
This European standard is a carefully balanced document that has been thoroughly discussed,
taking into account the need to provide clear definitions and specifications and to arrive at a
usable standard.
The requirements of this European standard are, where appropriate, based on the results from
tests on masonry cement in accordance with EN 196 Methods of testing cement. Strength is
measured on a standard mortar prepared in accordance with EN 196-1 with a fixed
water/cement ratio and compacted using the equipment described in EN 196-1. However, some
additional tests have been found necessary and these tests are described in EN 413-2.
CEN/TC 51 recognizes the importance of workability (cohesivity at standard consistence) of
mortars prepared from masonry cements. A test method is available in CR 13933, and in which
results of a test programme are also given. This test method was not found valid for standard
requirement purposes due to its lack of reproducibility, however it provides valuable
information for the manufacturers and users on the property in use of masonry cements.
The properties of bond and durability (resistance to frost and/or chemical attack) of mortars
are very important and appropriate mortar tests are being developed by CEN/TC 125, Masonry.
In many applications, particularly in severe environmental conditions, the choice of the
type/class of masonry cement from EN 413-1 can influence the durability of mortar, e.g. in
respect of frost and chemical resistance.
1 Scope
This document specifies the definition and composition of masonry cements as commonly used
in Europe for the production of mortar for bricklaying and blocklaying and for rendering and
plastering. It includes physical, mechanical and chemical requirements and defines strength
classes. EN 413-1 also states the conformity criteria and the related rules. Necessary durability
requirements are also given.
NOTE For normal applications the information given in EN 413-1, in EN 998-1 and in EN 998-2 is
generally sufficient. However, in special cases, an exchange of additional information between the
masonry cement producer and user can be helpful. The details of such an exchange are not within the
scope of EN 413-1 but should be dealt with in accordance with national standards or other regulations or
can be agreed between the parties concerned.
