Building lime - Part 1: Definitions, specifications and conformity criteria

This European Standard applies to building lime used for:
-   preparation of binder for mortar (for example for masonry, rendering and plastering);
-   production of other construction products (for example calcium silicate bricks, autoclaved aerated concrete, concrete, etc.);
-   civil engineering applications (for example soil treatment, asphalt mixtures, etc.).
It gives definitions for the different types of building lime and their classification. It also gives requirements for their chemical and physical properties which depend on the type of building lime and specifies the conformity criteria.
Terms of delivery or other contractual conditions, normally included in documents exchanged between the supplier and the purchaser of building lime, are outside the scope of this European Standard.

Baukalk - Teil 1: Begriffe, Anforderungen und Konformitätskriterien

Diese Europäische Norm gilt für Baukalk für:

Conformity with this classification is assessed by means of statistical quality control as described in Annex A of this European Standard. 4.4.2 Chemical requirements for calcium lime The properties of the type of calcium lime shown in Table 2 determined in accordance with EN 459-2 shall conform to the requirements in that table. All types of calcium lime listed in Table 2 may contain additives in small quantities to improve the manufacture or properties of calcium lime. When the total content exceeds 0,1 %, the actual types and amounts shall be declared. Table 2 — Chemical requirements of calcium lime given as characteristic values Type of calcium lime Values given as mass fraction in percent CaO + MgO MgOa CO2b SO3 Available limec CL 90 ≥ 90 ≤ 5 ≤ 4 ≤ 2 ≥ 80 CL 80 ≥ 80 ≤ 5 ≤ 7 ≤ 2 ≥ 65 CL 70 ≥ 70 ≤ 5 ≤ 12 ≤ 2 ≥ 55 The values for CaO + MgO, MgO, CO2 and SO3 are applicable to all forms of calcium lime. For quicklime these values correspond to the finished product; for all other forms of lime (hydrated lime, lime putty and milk of lime) the values are based on the product after subtraction of its free water and bound water content. The values for available lime (calcium oxide for quicklime, calcium hydroxide for hydrated lime) refer to the product when tested in accordance with EN 459–2. a MgO content up to 7 % is permitted if the soundness test in accordance with EN 459–2 is passed. b A higher content of CO2 is permitted, if all other chemical requirements in Table 2 are satisfied and the test frequency satisfies the requirements in Table 7. c Higher values of available lime may be requested.
4.4.3 Physical requirements and other physical properties for quicklime The physical properties of the type of quicklime shown in Table 3 and Table 4 determined in accordance with EN 459-2 shall conform to the requirements in those tables. SIST EN 459-1:2015
