DIN EN 459-1:2010-12

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, conrete, etc.), - civil engineering applications (for example soil treatment, hot mix asphalt, etc.). It gives definitions for the different types of building lime and its classification. It also gives requirements for their chemical and physical properties which depend on the type of building lime and specifies the conformity criteria.
