PD CEN/TR 16639:2014CEN/TR 16639:2014 (E) 4 0 Introduction 0.1 General This report outlines the current understanding of the use and application of three concepts used within EN 206:2013 for Type II additions to concrete. These are the k
17、-value concept, the Equivalent Concrete Performance Concept (ECPC) and Equivalent Performance of Combinations Concept (EPCC). Within 5.2.5 of EN 206:2013 k-values are given for fly ash and silica fume and a recommended k-value for GGBS as well as general principles for the ECPC and the EPCC concepts
18、. It is also stated in EN 206:2013 that modifications to the rules of application of the k-value concept are permitted if suitability is established. As stated within EN 206:2013 the establishment of suitability should result from provisions valid in the place of use of the concrete. In order to fur
19、ther explain the three concepts and to give guidance to the regulation writers and users of these concepts, this report provides background information and an overview of these concepts and rules of application as used within Europe. 0.2 Task Group 5 CEN/TC 104/SC 1 created Task Group 5 (TG 5) “Use
20、of Additions” and assigned them the task to update EN 206-1:2000, 5.2.5 as part of the revision of EN 206-1. Because of the publication of product standard EN 15167-1 for ground granulated blastfurnace slag (GGBS), TG 5 was also asked to include rules for GGBS. CEN/TC 104/SC 1 passed various resolut
21、ions instructing TG 5 that it should implement the EPCC and ECPC concepts and the existing k-value concept for use of additions at the concrete mixer. The rules for the use of type II additions in concrete according to EN 206:2013 are given in 5.2.5 “Use of additions”. For two additions, fly ash and
22、 silica fume, specific requirements for their use with k-values are given. In this prescriptive k-value concept for concrete mix design, the defined rules are on the safe side and cover all possible variations for the possible permutations of cement and addition. An alternative option is the use of
23、ECPC and EPCC concepts. Their principles are described in EN 206:2013, 5.2.5.3 and 5.2.5.4 while examples for the assessment using these concepts are given in this CEN/TR. The rules for these performance concepts should also be safe and lead to a more efficient use of additions. 0.3 k-value concept
24、With respect to the k-value concept in EN 206:2013, it was agreed that for fly ash and silica fume prescriptive k-values and cement substitution rates will be given which are proven to be on the safe side. Although the k-value concept for GGBS is included in some national regulations (see /2/) only
25、a recommended value is given in EN 206:2013 due to limited practical experience. In national provisions, however, modifications to the rules of the k-value concept may be applied where their suitability has been established, e.g. higher k-values, increased proportions of additions, other additions (
26、including type I), combinations of additions and other cements than those normally permitted. In this report the derivation of the prescriptive k-value approach is explained. The report also describes how the k-value concept should be applied by users such as the concrete producers. 0.4 ECPC and EPC
27、C The equivalent performance concepts, ECPC and EPCC, for the use of additions may be applied where suitability has been established. In countries where ECPC and EPCC are applied, nearly always, GGBS as addition to concrete is used under these concepts. This report describes how the ECPC and EPCC ar
28、e applied in some European countries. PD CEN/TR 16639:2014CEN/TR 16639:2014 (E) 5 1 Scope This Technical Report provides more detailed information on the k-value concept principles of the equivalent concrete performance concept (ECPC) and the equivalent performance of combinations concept (EPCC) in
29、accordance to EN 206:2013, 5.2.5. PD CEN/TR 16639:2014CEN/TR 16639:2014 (E) 6 2 k-value concept 2.1 k-values in EN 206:2013 The k-value concept has been established for a number of years in a number of countries and was therefore implemented in EN 206-1 for fly ash and silica fume. In CEN/TC 104/SC
30、1 report N 278 (June 1996) the background was given to the application of k-value concept with fly ash concrete 1. Later this concept was also applied for concretes containing silica fume and in some member states k-values for concretes with ground granulated blastfurnace slag (GGBS) are given in na
31、tional application documents. In EN 206:2013 prescriptive k-values are given for fly ash and silica fume and a recommended one for GGBS. These k-values allow the use of these additions in concrete throughout Europe with a restricted range of cement types within the requirements of the standard witho
32、ut any further verification procedure, i.e. without further testing except for the normal quality control for the concrete. In a prescriptive concept for concrete mix designs, the defined rules shall be on the safe side and cover all possible combinations of materials and variations for the given ad
33、dition. The k-value concept is a prescriptive concept. It is based on the comparison of the durability performance (or strength as a proxy-criterion for durability where appropriate) of a reference concrete with cement “A” against a test concrete in which part of cement “A” is replaced by an additio
34、n as function of the water/cement ratio and the addition content. With the proof of durability indirectly the proof for the exposure classes is given. The k-value concept permits type II additions to be taken into account: by replacing the term “water/cement ratio” with “water/(cement + k * addition
35、) ratio” and; the amount of (cement + k * addition) shall not be less than the minimum cement content required for the relevant exposure class. When part of Cement “A” is replaced by an addition, the limiting values that have to be applied are those that would apply for Cement “A”. The rules of appl
36、ication of the k-value concept for fly ash conforming to EN 450-1, silica fume conforming to EN 13263-1 and ground granulated blast furnace slag conforming to EN 15167-1 together with cements of type CEM I and CEM II/A conforming to EN 197-1 are given in corresponding clauses in EN 206:2013. Modific
37、ations to the rules of the k-value concept may be applied where their suitability has been established (e.g. higher k-values, increased proportions of additions, other additions (including type I), combinations of additions and other cements than permitted. 2.2 Use of k-values in the member states T
38、he use of k-values for type II additions in concrete has developed differently across the European member states over years. Within the revision work of EN 206:2013 member states experience was compiled with a series of differing enquiries. In 2007 a “Survey of National requirements used in conjunct
39、ion with EN 206- 1:2000” was published 2. For the use of additions this enquiry was focused to the regulations for different classes of LOI for fly ash, environmental compatibility and the use of k-values, especially for fly ash and silica fume. Five countries responded on the use of k-values for GG
40、BS. In March 2007, CEN/TC 104/WG 15 presented the results of a survey on the “Use of GGBS as a type II addition in concrete to EN 206-1”. Eight countries reported on the use of GGBS and it was found that GGBS is used as type II addition under the ECPC, EPCC and the k-value principles. However, the a
41、mount used based on the k-value concept is relatively limited and this experience is confined only to some Nordic countries 3. Within the revision work of 5.2.5 “Use of additions” in EN 206:2013, TG 5 also prepared an enquiry on the use of k-values for additions 4 focusing the experience with the di
42、fferent additions, the k-values and the determination of these k-values. In total 12 countries answered to the enquiry. Three countries do not use the PD CEN/TR 16639:2014CEN/TR 16639:2014 (E) 7 k-value concept as they are using existing performance concepts and one country does not use the k-value
43、concept for GGBS resulting in nine countries with regulations for using GGBS with the k-value concept. The answers of the enquiry can be compiled as follows: The k-value was mostly established based on results of research work and experience. The compressive strength is mostly evaluated after 28 day
44、s on concrete samples (9 countries) or mortar (1 country). Where the k-value was determined the relationship between the compressive strength and water/cement- ratio of concrete samples was used. The type of cement and the maximum proportions of additions permitted vary widely in the National regula
45、tions, from the use with CEM I only to the use with all cements where the additions are also used in cement. Fly ash is used with more cement types than silica fume and GGBS using the k-value concept. k-values for fly ash vary from 0,2 to 0,8, those for silica fume from 1,0 to 2,0 and those for GGBS
46、 from 0,4 to 1,0. Where k-values had been determined the durability aspects had also been taken into account. Most of the countries have experience with k-value concept for fly ash and silica fume, only a few countries use the k-value concept for GGBS. The single answers to the TG 5 enquiry are give
47、n at the end of this report. 2.3 Procedure for using the k-value concept 2.3.1 Principle of the k-value concept Type II additions contribute to concrete properties by various mechanisms. Their influence on concrete properties depends on the characteristics of the individual material properties, on t
48、he age of concrete, on the ambient conditions (temperature, humidity) and various other parameters. To take into account these effects in the concrete mix design, the k-value method uses the relationship between the water/cement ratio and the strength of concrete. The concept was introduced by Iain
49、A. Smith for the first time in 1967 for the design of fly ash concretes with fly ash amount up to 25 % 5 and has developed further on. Based on the established concept of EN 206-1 and related Eurocodes the concrete mix design is based on the 28 days strength of concrete. Consequently the standardised prescriptive k-value for a concrete addition is related to this age. Nevertheless, when a k-value has to be defined, the durability of concretes shall be considered for the relevant exposure classes. In concretes containing type II additions, th
