This European Standard specifies a method for measuring the dimensional stability (i.e. the shrinkage and
expansion movement) due to changes in the moisture content of hydraulic mortars or concretes (CC) or polymer
hydraulic cement mortars or concretes (PCC) as defined in EN 1504-1. Two methods are proposed, namely a
procedure for unrestrained movement and a procedure for restrained movement.
The provisions of the standard are applicable to grout, mortar or concrete products or systems with a maximum
aggregate size of 10 mm.
