At the initiative of CEN/TC 51 (Cement and building limes) and CEN/TC 104 (Concrete and related
products), a task group (TG 6) of TC 51/WG 12 was convened in order to accompany or follow research
work being carried out within the EC research programme which has the objective of establishing the
effects, if any, of concrete on the natural environment and the potential effects of cementitious materials
on the quality of drinking water.
This Technical Report deals only with developments, as officially reported, by a consortium of
Dutch/German Institutes, to the European Commission in EUR 17869 EN [1], leading to a performance
test method for characterising the leaching behaviour of hardened concrete for use in contact with the
natural environment.
