13、 been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 51 “Cement and buliding limes”, the secretariat of which is held by NBN. It describes test methods, that when completed, will produce eluates for the assessment of inorganic and organic substances potentially released from either the constituents of concr

14、etes (tested within hardened reference concretes) or from production concretes (or test pieces representative of production concretes) whether presented in the pre-hardened/precast state, fresh wet state or pre-packaged. This document is currently incomplete. This document does not include the extra

15、ction procedure necessary to produce the eluates because extraction procedures will be developed within a programme of horizontal test method standardisation under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association in order to support essential requirements of

16、EU Directives. The necessary programme of work is being undertaken in CEN/TC 351 Construction products Assessment of release of dangerous substances. Annex A, which is normative, describes the testing for release of (regulated) dangerous substances from pre-hardened concrete products formed in the f

17、actory. Annex B, which is informative, describes the testing for release of (regulated) dangerous substances from hardened test pieces representative of fresh wet concretes or pre-packaged concretes. Annex C, which is informative, describes the principles of laboratory concrete mix design to be appl

18、ied for the assessment of new/unapproved constituents of concrete. CEN/TR 15678:20084 Introduction Regulatory background In March 2005 the Commission Services of the European Union published mandate M/366 “Development of horizontal standardised assessment methods for harmonised approaches relating t

19、o (regulated) dangerous substances under the Construction Products Directive (CPD)”. M/366 deals with the subject of emissions or release of (regulated) dangerous substances from construction products, as defined in the CPD, which may have harmful impacts on human health and the environment in relat

20、ion to essential requirement No. 3 (ER 3), Health, hygiene and the environment, of the CPD. The mandate is intended to provide harmonised European measurement/test method standards that are needed in order to remove technical barriers to trade and bring about the “approximation” of laws, regulations

21、 and administrative provisions of the Member States. The measurement/test standards should provide results that can be expressed in performance terms and be suitable for addressing the emission or release of (regulated) dangerous substances within provisions in harmonised European Technical Specific

22、ations (ETS). For ease of assigning the appropriate environments or exposure scenarios to individual products, the environment is notionally divided into two distinct environmental compartments: indoor air and soil, groundwater and surface water. In this context, it is important to recognize that es

23、sential requirement No. 3 only covers the potential effects of construction on the health of occupants and neighbours of construction works and the environment immediately surrounding the works. In life-cycle terms, it covers only the service life of a product and, therefore, does not cover the cons

24、truction phase or end-of-use/disposal. These distinct environmental compartments are necessarily associated with exposure-specific test methodologies, the emission of volatile, semi-volatile or other substances into indoor air being physico-chemically, kinetically and thermodynamically distinct from

25、 release into aqueous environments. The test methods described herein address only the potential release of substances into soil, groundwater and surface water, forms of aqueous exposure which, given the focus on service-life, could be described as the natural environment. Assessment of emission of

26、substances into indoor air may or may not be relevant for the cementitious products identified in this CEN TR. However, if it emerges that the regulatory regime requires that this aspect of performance be addressed, then the European cement and concrete sector, via its standardization committees, wi

27、ll involve itself in appropriate work items. At the time of drafting this CEN TR, spring 2007, there are a number of uncertainties about the regulatory regime that will eventually govern the assessment of emission/release of dangerous substances from construction products within Europe. In particula

28、r, it is unclear which products and/or materials will be subject to any part of the emerging regulatory regime. In the case of cement-containing products or materials such as concrete there is additional uncertainty because, with the exception of mixing water, all the constituents of concrete are co

29、nstruction products mandated in their own right under the Construction Products Directive (CPD). However, the constituents of concrete do not come into direct contact with either soil, groundwater or surface water and this could be taken to infer that they should not be subject to any regulatory pro

30、visions except that some (i.e. those not already standardised under national standards or European Technical Specifications) are subject to assessment within some Member States existing environmental regulations. Furthermore, some types of concrete, for example fresh wet concretes, have not been man

31、dated as construction products under the CPD and therefore might be considered to be outside any European regulatory regime based upon it. The complicating factor for these materials, though, is that they are subject to some EU Member States existing regulations and may, in consequence, need to be a

32、ssessed under a European regulatory regime. It is also unclear whether the assessment and classification framework under development for use in the European regulatory regime will eventually be adopted. Currently, however, there are indications that the framework will include three distinct elements

33、: CEN/TR 15678:20085 a deemed to satisfy classification scheme for assessing some products on the basis of existing, generally accepted knowledge, currently known as without testing (WT); a classification scheme known as without further testing (WFT) but based on initial testing using agreed Europea

34、n test methods may also form part of the regime; and for use in those cases where the above classifications are either inapplicable or where products cannot achieve either classification because they can emit or release substances in amounts in excess of the classification criteria, there would be a

35、 need to carry out further testing (FT) in the form of routine or conformity testing, again using agreed European test methods called up from appropriate provisions placed in harmonised European Technical Specifications (e.g. harmonised European product standards and European Technical Approvals). H

36、owever, it is clear that the eventual European regulatory regime will neither establish nor include any pan-European assessment criteria for assessing emission or release under conditions of further testing (FT). Assessment under FT conditions will be a matter of comparing results obtained using Eur

37、opean test methods with the appropriate, and possibly appropriately modified, limiting criteria in EU Member States existing national regulations. Given the regulatory uncertainties outlined above, this CEN TR has taken the position that its scope must initially include: all types of concrete pre-ha

38、rdened/precast, fresh wet (ready-mixed and site-mixed) and pre-packaged); and all the constituents of concrete, with the exception of mixing water; so as to cover the eventuality that any of these, whether mandated construction products or not, may need to be assessed for the purposes of conformity

39、with Essential Requirement 3 of the Construction Products Directive because any can come into either direct or indirect (constituents of concrete) contact with soil, groundwater or surface water. However, those products that have been mandated as construction products in their own right under the CP

40、D are dealt with in normative provisions in this CEN TR whereas those that have not been mandated are dealt with in informative provisions. Overall scope of products and test methods This CEN TR describes three distinct test methods but all use the same extraction procedure. The first will permit th

41、e constituents (e.g. cement, additions, aggregates, admixtures, fibres etc) of concrete that have not been officially classified as WT products (i.e. without testing to a European standard test method being required) to be assessed against any European or national requirements for release of (regula

42、ted) dangerous substances from hardened test pieces of concrete into soil, groundwater or surface water. The second method, in normative Annex A, is designed to permit factory made pre-hardened concretes, or test pieces representative of factory made concretes, which have not been officially classif

43、ied as WT products, to be assessed against any European or national requirements for release of (regulated) dangerous substances into soil, groundwater or surface water. The third method, in informative Annex B, is designed to permit concretes sampled in the fresh wet state or pre-packaged (and also

44、 not officially classified as WT products) to be assessed in the hardened state, against any European or national requirements for release of (regulated) dangerous substances into soil, groundwater or surface water. Construction products, whether constituents of concrete or concrete itself, that hav

45、e been officially classified as WT products by way of authorised procedures will not require to be tested by the methods described herein. In consequence, the overall scope is directed to the testing of new or previously unapproved constituents of concretes, or to production concretes where a requir

46、ement to test the end-use product has arisen. CEN/TR 15678:20086 Constituents - general description of the method of test The first method describes how to determine the release of (regulated) dangerous substances from a new/unapproved constituent of concrete. The method is comparative in that resul

47、ts obtained from a laboratory prepared reference concrete which does not include the constituent under test (control mix) are subtracted from the results obtained from a reference concrete that incorporates the test constituent by either substitution or addition (test mix). A new/unapproved constitu

48、ent for use in concrete can be incorporated into a reference concrete in three different ways, either by: substitution (partial or full) for a reference constituent of the same type and which reference constituent has either been classified as WT or has otherwise demonstrated its fitness for intende

49、d use, as in the case of: factory-made cements, aggregates, type I additions; substitution (partial) for a reference constituent of a different type and which reference constituent has either been classified as WT or has otherwise demonstrated its fitness for intended use, as in the case of: type I or type II additions; or by addition to the reference concrete, as in the case of: admixtures, polymer modifiers and fibres. As a principle, the method seeks to isolate, as far as is practicable, the contribution to the release of substances from the unap
