5.2.6 Use of admixtures
The total amount of admixtures, if any, shall not exceed the maximum dosage recommended by the admixture
producer and not exceed 50 g of admixture (as supplied) per kg cement unless the influence of the higher dosage
on the performance and the durability of the concrete is established.
Admixtures used in quantities less than 2 g/kg cement are only permitted if they are dispersed in part of the mixing
water.
If the total quantity of liquid admixtures exceeds 3 l/m
of concrete, its water content shall be taken into account
3
when calculating the water/cement ratio.
Where more than one admixture is used, the compatibility of the admixtures shall be checked in the initial tests.
NOTE Concrete with consistence
=
S4, V4, C3 or
=
F4 should be made with high range water reducing/super plasticizing
admixture.
5.2.7 Chloride content
The chloride content of a concrete, expressed as the percentage of chloride ions by mass of cement, shall not
exceed the value for the selected class given in table 10.

Where type II additions are used and are taken into account for the cement content, the
b
chloride content is expressed as the percentage chloride ion by mass of cement plus
total mass of additions that are taken into account.
Calcium chloride and chloride based admixtures shall not be added to concrete containing steel reinforcement,
prestressing steel reinforcement or other embedded metal.
For the determination of the chloride content of the concrete, the sum of the contributions from the constituent
materials shall be determined using one of, or a combination of, the following methods:
– calculation based on the maximum chloride content of the constituent either permitted in the standard for the
constituent or declared by the producer of each constituent material;
– calculation based on the chloride content of the constituent materials calculated monthly from the sum of the
means of the last 25 determinations of chloride content plus 1,64 × the calculated standard deviation for each
constituent material.
NOTE The latter method is particularly applicable to sea-dredged aggregates and for those cases where there is no declared or
standard maximum value.
5.2.8 Concrete temperature
The temperature of fresh concrete shall not be less than 5 °C at the time of delivery. Where a requirement for a
