Comparison of measurements in standards for the properties of pozzolanic materials.

Property EN 13263 ASTM C 1240
Reference mix 225 g of distilled water
1350 g of standard sand
450 g of test cement
242 g of distilled water
1375 g of standard sand
500 g of test cement and X g of Flow agent (superplasticizer)
Pozzolanic (by replacement) 45 g 50 g
Superplasticizer
(Flowability determined using specific equipment)
Superplasticizer is inappropriate with EN-934-2. As much superplasticizer as necessary to determine the standard flow (±5 mm). Dry high range water reducer in conformity with C494 Type F. Adding superplasticizer to gain a flow mixture of 100–115% (summation of 4 measurements which done with a special caliper).
Curing (after 24 h in the mold) Submerged in 20 ± 1 °C water temperature for 27 days. In airtight glass containers at temperature of 65 ± 2 °C for 6 days.
