Foreword to this standard

This standard has been prepared by Technical Committee 07.02.00 Beton of the Normenauschuss Bauwesen
(Building and Civil Engineering Standard Committee).
The DIN 1045 standards series *) comprises the following Parts:
Part 1: Design and construction
Part 2: Specification, properties, production and conformity of concrete (Application document for use with
DIN EN 206-1*))
Part 3: Workmanship
Part 4: Supplementary specifications governing the production and conformity of precast elements
This Part of the standard applies to in-situ and precast concrete, including precast elements, used for buildings
and civil engineering works. It is to be used in conjunction with DIN EN 206-1, and is based on that standard,
containing supplementary national specifications to take into account German climatic and geographic
conditions, safety levels and established regional practices.
DIN EN 206-1 contains a number of references to draft European Standards. This standard makes reference
to the German standards and Codes of practice that will continue to apply until such time as European
Standards are adopted as German building regulations **).
In this standard, the same numeration and clause headings are used as in DIN EN 206-1. Any departures from
DIN EN 206-1 (i.e. additional text, substitutions, deletions) are indicated in a different font on the left-hand side
of the page, with any new wording given on the right-hand side. ***)

according to the concept described in DIN EN 206-1.
b) The standard has been editorially revised and the terminology brought in line with European standards
terminology.
c) The scope has been extended to cover higher concrete compressive strength classes.
d) The concrete mix has been designed with high concrete durability in mind.
e) More detailed specifications are given regarding constituent materials.
f) Rules are now incorporated to take additions into account in calculations of the cement content.
g) The responsibilities of concrete producers and users are more clearly defined.
h) Concrete specifications have been amended.
i) The provisions relating to delivery of concrete have been extended.

Exposure classes related to environmental actions
Table 1 of DIN EN 206-1 is replaced by the following table. In particular, corrosion due to wear is now taken into account
(see 7).
Table 1: Exposure classes
Class
Description of environment
Examples where exposure classes may occur
1 No risk of corrosion or attack

Exposure class X0 may be used for components without reinforcement or embedded metal in a nonaggressive environment
Foundations without reinforcement and not subjected to
For concrete without
freeze/thaw attack; interior components without
reinforcement or
reinforcement
embedded metal: All
environmental actions
except freeze/thaw,
abrasion or chemical attack
2 Corrosion of reinforcement induced by carbonation
Where concrete containing reinforcement or other embedded metal is exposed to air and moisture, the
exposure shall be classified as follows:
NOTE 1: The moisture conditions relate to those in the concrete cover to reinforcement or other embedded
metal, but in many cases, conditions in the concrete cover can be taken as being the same as those of
the ambient conditions. However, this may not be the case if there is a barrier between the concrete and
its environment.
Dry or permanently wet
Components in rooms with normal air humidity (including

kitchens, bathrooms, laundries in residential buildings);
concrete permanently submerged in water
Wet, rarely dry
Parts of water tanks; foundation members
Moderately humid
Components to which outside air constantly or frequently has

access (e.g. open shed-type buildings), rooms with a highly
humid atmosphere (e.g. commercial kitchens, baths,
laundries, damp rooms of indoor swimming pools, byres)
Cyclic wet and dry
External concrete components exposed to rain
3 Corrosion of reinforcement, induced by chlorides other than from sea water

Where concrete containing reinforcement or other embedded metal is subject to contact with water
containing chloride, including de-icing agents, from sources other than sea water, the exposure shall be
classified as follows:
Moderately humid
Components exposed to airborne chlorides from trafficked

areas, private garages
Wet, rarely dry
Salt water baths; components exposed to industrial waters

containing chlorides
Cyclic wet and dry
Parts of bridges frequently exposed to splashing; pavements;

car park slabs

5.2.5.2 k-value concept
The following wording shall be substituted:
5.2.5.2.1
General
The k-value concept permits type II additions to be taken into account:

by replacing the term water/cement ratio (defined in subclause 3.1.31 of DIN EN 206-1) with equivalent water/cement ratio,
(w/c) eq, (defined in subclause 3.1.52), obtained as follows:
either (w/c)eq = w/(c + kf f);
or (w/c) eq = w/(c + kss);
or (w/c) eq = w/(c + kf f + kss);
by inclusion in the minimum cement content requirement (see
sublause 5.3).
The actual value of k depends on the specific addition. The application of
the k-value concept for fly ash conforming to DIN EN 450 or covered by an
agrment, or for silica fume, is given in the following clauses.
If fly ash or silica fume is taken into account under the conditions stated
in subclauses 5.2.5.2.2 to 5.2.5.2.4, the minimum cement content as a
function of the exposure class, as specified in subclause 5.3.2 and line 3
of tables F.2.1 and F.2.2, may be reduced to that given in line 4 of the same
tables.
5.2.5.2.2
k-value concept for fly ash conforming to DIN EN 450
If fly ash is taken into account when calculating the minimum cement
content, the latter may be reduced to that given in line 4 of tables F.2.1 and
Page 14
DIN 1045-2 : 2001-07
F.2.2 for all exposure classes except XF2 and XF4, provided that one of the
following types of cement is used:
Portland cement (CEM I);
Portland silica fume cement (CEM II/A-D);
Portland slag cement (CEM II/A-S or CEM II/B-S);
Portland burnt shale cement (CEM II/A-T or CEM II/B-T);
Portland limestone cement (CEM II/A-LL);
blastfurnace cement (CEM III/A);
blastfurnace cement (CEM III/B up to 70 % (m/m) of granulated
blastfurnace slag, provided its composition is established as specified
in DIN EN 197-1).
The combined cement and fly ash content (c + f) shall not exceed the
minimum cement content from line 3 of tables F.2.1 and F.2.2.
Subclause 5.2.5.2.5 shall be taken into account when using Portland silica
fume cement.
For all exposure classes with the exception of XF2 and XF4, a maximum
permitted equivalent water/cement ratio, k f, equal to 0,4 may be used
instead of the maximum permitted water/cement ratio from tables F.2.1
and F.2.2.
The maximum fly ash content, f/c, that may be taken into account shall be
not more than 33 % (m/m).
If a greater amount of fly ash is used, the excess shall not be taken into
account when calculating the equivalent water/cement ratio.
When making concrete with a high sulfate resistance, a mixture of cement
and fly ash may be used instead of high-sulfate cement to DIN 1164
providing the following conditions are met:
a) the sulfate content of the aggressive water is not more than
1 500 mg/l;
b) the cement is of type CEM I, CEM II/A-S, CEM II/B-S, CEM II/A-T,
CEM II/B-T, CEM II/A-LL or CEM III/A;
c) the fly ash content, referred to the combined cement and fly ash
content (c + f), shall be at least 20 % (m/m) for cement types CEM I,
CEM II/A-S, CEM II/B-S and CEM II/A-LL and at least 10 % (m/m) for
cement types CEM II/A-T, CEM II/B-T and CEM III/A;
d) fly ash whose total alkali content determined as specified in
DIN EN 196-21 and expressed as the sodium oxide equivalent is not
more than 4 % (m/m) may also be used with aggregate of alkali-reaction
classes E II and E III and for moisture classes WF and WA from the
DAfStb-Richtlinie Alkalireaktion im Beton.
Subclause 5.3.4 of this standard shall apply with regard to the use of fly
ash in underwater concrete.
5.2.5.2.3 k-value concept for silica fume
The silica fume content shall be not more than 11 % (m/m) of the cement
content.
If silica fume is taken into account when calculating the minimum cement
content, the latter may be reduced to the level specified in line 4 of
tables F.2.1 and F.2.2 for all exposure classes except XF2 and XF4,
provided that one of the following types of cement is used:
Portland cement (CEM I);
Portland slag cement (CEM II/A-S or CEM II/B-S);
Portland pozzolana cement (CEM II/A-P, CEM II/B-P);
Portland fly ash cement (CEM II/A-V);

The combined cement and silica fume content (c + s) shall be not less than
the minimum cement content from line 3 of tables F.2.1 and F.2.2.
For all exposure classes with the exception of XF2 and XF4, the equivalent
water/cement ratio (equal to unity) may be used instead of the water/
cement ratio.
Page 15
DIN 1045-2 : 2001-07
5.2.5.2.4 k-value concept for combinations of fly ash and silica fume
A new subclause 5.2.5.2.4 is added:
If fly ash and silica fume are used in combination, the silica fume content
shall be not more than 11 % (m/m) of the cement.
If both fly ash and silica fume are taken into account when calculating the
minimum cement content, the latter may be reduced to the level specified
in line 4 of tables F.2.1 and F.2.2 for all exposure classes except XF2 and
XF4, provided that the combined content of cement, fly ash and silica fume
(c + f + s) is not less than the minimum cement content from line 3 of
tables F.2.1 and F.2.2.
The specifications of subclause 5.2.5.2.5 shall be taken into account to
ensure that the pore solution is sufficiently alkaline.
For all exposure classes with the exception of XF2 and XF4, the equivalent
water/cement ratio, (w/c)eq, obtained as w/(c + 0,4f + 1,0s), may be used
instead of the water/cement ratio from tables F.2.1 and F.2.2, provided
that the maximum fly ash content is not more than 33 % (m/m) of the
cement and the maximum silica fume is not more than 11 % by total mass
of the cement.
If a greater amount of fly ash is used, the excess shall not be taken into
account when calculating the equivalent water/cement ratios, kf (equal to
0,4) and k s (equal to unity).
5.2.5.2.5 Alkalinity reserve of the pore solution
A new subclause 5.2.5.2.5 is added:
In order to ensure that the pore solution is sufficiently alkaline, cement
consisting of CEM I, fly ash and silica fume shall have a maximum fly ash
content, f/c, equal to 3 (0,22 s/c), expressed as a percentage by mass.
In the case of types CEM II-S, CEM II/A-D, CEM II-T, CEM II/A-LL and
CEM III/A cement, the maximum fly ash content, f/c, shall be 3 (0,15 s/c),
expressed as a percentage by mass.
The use of fly ash and silica fume in combination is not permitted for other
types of cement.
In view of the need to ensure the alkalinity reserve of the pore solution type
CEM II/A-D cement containing fly ash shall be taken to have a silica fume
content of 10 % (m/m).
5.2.5.3 Equivalent concrete performance concept
The fourth paragraph is replaced by the following:
The principle may only be used in connection with agrments or European
Technical Approvals (cf. note 2 to subclause 5.2.5.1 of DIN EN 206-1).
5.2.6 Use of admixtures
Two paragraphs are added after the first paragraph:
A specific check of the admixture content is not necessary in cases where
concrete contains more than one type of admixture and the total admixture
content is not more than 60 g per kilogram of cement (including the
additions that are taken into account in calculations of the cement
content).
For high-strength concrete, the maximum permitted content of plastifying
admixtures shall be 70 g per kilogram or 70 ml per kilogram of cement.

chloride content is expressed as the percentage chloride ions by mass of cement plus total mass of
additions that are taken into account.
A fourth paragraph is added:
The requirements relating to chloride content as given in table 10 are
deemed satisfied if the chloride content of each constituent material
(except aggregate and cement of type CEM III) meets the requirements for
the lowest class in the provision applicable to the constituent material.

Tasks for the inspection body

Initial assessment of production control
A new second paragraph is added:

If a mobile facility changes location after inspection, it shall be checked in
the first routine inspection that no essential changes have taken place
since the initial inspection.
The note is replaced by the following *):
NOTE: On the basis of this report, the accredited certification body will
decide on the certification of the concrete (see C.3.1).
C.2.2.1 Routine inspection
The seventh paragraph is supplemented by the following:
The check shall be carried out by the inspection body at least once a year
or whenever there are major changes in production conditions.
C.2.2.2 Extraordinary inspections
The following shall be added to the text after the fourth dash:
An extraordinary inspection shall also be requested if the results from
production control do not seem plausible.
The results of compressive strength testing shall be examined for
plausibility from three aspects:
For initial production:
Plausibility of the conformity assessment of initial production as in line 2
of table 14 of DIN EN 206-1.
Where at least 35 individual results have been obtained for conformity
assessment of initial production, the mean and standard deviation of these
results, fcm and s, respectively, shall be calculated.
For continuous production:
Plausibility of the conformity assessment of continuous production as in
line 3 of table 14 of DIN EN 206-1.
For both initial production and continuous production, plausibility of the
compressive strength test results shall be assumed if a check of the
normal distribution of the compressive strength test results gives a
positive result and the standard deviation appears plausible.
Plausibility of the compatibility of results of third-party inspection with
those of production control: If the inspection body takes samples for
compressive strength tests, the results shall be checked for compatibility
with the results from production control. The plausibility of the results shall
be assumed if the check for compatibility gives a positive result.
Page 26
DIN 1045-2 : 2001-07
NOTE: The check for normal distribution should always be supplemented
by an analysis of the data in the probability net. If the check for normal
distribution gives a negative result, the presentation in the probability
net may indicate the form this deviation has taken, which, in certain
circumstances, may enable the causes for deviation from normal
distribution to be inferred.
The consistence test results are plausible if stiffening is taken into account
over the whole anticipated transportation time and if the increase in the
quantity of water required at elevated temperature whilst maintaining a
constant water/cement ratio is taken into account.

Certification of concrete
The certification body certifies the concrete on the basis of a report from
the inspection body, that states that the production unit has passed the
initial check of the production control to the satisfaction of the inspection
body and the concrete meets the requirements specified in this standard.
It shall be the responsibility of the certification body to decide on any
further validity of the certificate on the basis of the reports of the
continuous surveillance of production control.
C.3.2
Measures in case of non-conformity
The third paragraph, including the note, is replaced by the following:

If the extraordinary inspection results in failure, the certification body shall
immediately declare the certificate of conformity to be invalid, and the
inspection body shall terminate surveillance of production control. The
certification body will notify the producer accordingly that his certificate
is no longer valid.
Following declaration that the certificate is no longer valid, the producer
shall no longer be able to refer to the certificate of conformity.
A fifth paragraph is added:
The certification body shall apply a documented system to assess the
cases of non-conformity established during the course of routine and
extraordinary inspections. This system shall take into account the gravity
of deviations, their cumulation and their distribution as a function of time.

Annex K (normative)
Concrete families
K.2 Selection of concrete family
The recommendations of K.2 are given normative character.
The text after the fifth dash in the first paragraph is supplemented by the following:
Concrete of compressive strength classes C8/10 to C50/60 or LC8/9 to
LC50/55 shall be divided into at least two concrete families.
An informative Annex L is added as follows.
Annex L (informative)
Particle size analysis
Undersize,
as a percentage by volume
The particle size analysis of the aggregate is characterized by grading curves (cf. figures L.1 to L.4) and, where
necessary, by a related parameter representing particle size distribution or water requirement.
The composition of size fractions and aggregages is to be determined as specified in sieving tests to
DIN EN 933-1 with test sieves conforming to DIN ISO 3310-1 or DIN ISO 3310-2. The grading curves may be
discontinuous or steady.
Figures L.1 to L.4 show the following ranges:
1) Coarse
2) Gap-graded
3) Coarse to medium coarse
4) Medium coarse to fine
5) Fine
