Specific tests are applicable to construction mortars, both for masonry and rendering and plastering, for the verification of their performance, in accordance with harmonized standards EN-998-1 and EN 998-2. The study likewise sets out the Systems of Assessment and Verification of Constancy of Performance (SAVCP): System 4 for Rendering and Plastering Mortars and Systems 4 and 2+ for Masonry Mortars. Special importance in the new procedures for CE Marking is placed on the manufacturers, as they assume responsibility both for determining the properties of the materials and for establishing a control process in the factory. This document describes the technical development of the tests, in accordance with the applicable harmonized standards, for verifying the performance of the mortars designed with steelmaking slags as aggregates. The study concludes with the presentation of a Technical Data Sheet for the preparation of the corresponding CE marking for these new designed mortars.

Este trabajo recoge el proceso de elaboración de una “Declaración de Prestaciones” de un mortero de albañilería fabricado a partir de residuos de acería valorizados como áridos, para su posterior Marcado CE, con el objetivo de facilitar su comercialización en la Unión Europea. Los morteros para construcción, tanto de albañilería como de revoco y enlucido, disponen de ensayos específicos para verificar sus prestaciones, de acuerdo con las normas armonizadas EN 998-1 y EN 998-2. De igual forma, se establece que los Sistemas de Evaluación y Verificación de la Constancia de las Prestaciones (EVCP) serán el Sistema 4 para los Morteros de Revoco y Enlucido, y los Sistemas 4 y 2+ para los Morteros de Albañilería. Los nuevos procedimientos para el Marcado CE en productos de construcción otorgan especial importancia a los fabricantes, ya que son los responsables de determinar las propiedades de los materiales, así como de establecer un proceso de control en fabrica. En este trabajo se describe el desarrollo técnico de los ensayos realizados para verificar las prestaciones de los morteros diseñados con áridos siderúrgicos. El trabajo concluye con la elaboración de la Ficha Técnica de Características para la elaboración del correspondiente distintivo de Marcado CE de los morteros diseñados. Mortero de albañilería; escorias siderúrgicas; EAFS; LFS; Residuo; Marcado CE. Directive 89/106/EEC [2] established the obligation to produce a “ Declaration of Conformity ”; in which the manufacturer or its representative in the European Union had to declare that the construction product complied with the essential requirements of the relevant Directives that affected it. 1. I NTRODUCTION R egulation (EU) Nº 305/2011 of the European Parliament and the Council of 9 March 2011 [1] states that both construction and civil works promoted within the geographic area of the European Union Member States should comply with a set of essential requirements that will guarantee the health of users and environmental protection; and will contribute to energy saving and to constant performance over time. Compliance with all these requirements is oriented towards safeguarding both the public and social interests. Since 2011; the new Construction Products Regulation (EU) Nº 305/2011 [1] has replaced the “ Declaration of Conformity ” by the “ Declaration of Performance ”; in which the manufacturers of construction products have clearly to specify “ the performance of the product in relation to its essential 6
