What is PD CEN/TR 16912 - European standardization of cement about?
PD CEN/TR 16912 is an international standard on cement Standards that discuss the standardisation of cement that provides guidelines and technical specifications for products, services, and processes to ensure the safety and quality of products.
PD CEN/TR 16912 provides guidance for the procedure to be followed in order to support the
European standardization of new cement that is not covered by an existing European Standard.
The term “new cement” has been used in PD CEN/TR 16912 to describe its primary focus; however, this same guideline procedure may be used for other products to be standardized by CEN/TC 51.
Who is PD CEN/TR 16912 - European standardization of cement for?
PD CEN/TR 16912 on cement is relevant to:
- Builders
- Cement industry
- Quality control inspector
Why should you use PD CEN/TR 16912 - European standardization of cement?
Standardisation of any new product is often a key step to facilitate wider exploitation and conformity to a Standard gives both specifiers and users added confidence.
PD CEN/TR 16912 navigates you through the procedure of application and standardization process of new cement.
PD CEN/TR 16912 provides the classification of new cement and the general criteria for the assessment of new cement.
PD CEN/TR 16912 specifies the assessment and elements of fitness for use and the product characteristics of the new cement which are relevant to its fitness for use.
Methods for the assessment and verification of the relevant product characteristics of the new cement relevant to its fitness for use can be determined by PD CEN/TR 16912.
PD CEN/TR 16912 encourages patents and other intellectual property rights (IPR) relevant for the standardization of the new cement.
Overall, PD CEN/TR 16912 assists you with the specifications of cement to be blended for building construction, as well as the mechanical, physical, and chemical requirements for both the products and their constituents.
As a result, the European standardising concept in concrete construction takes into account the present state of construction and execution technology and attempts to achieve two key goals, namely the interfaces between design and construction and the longevity of concrete structures.
