This addendum concerns the notification of draft of Egyptian Standard ES 4756-1 "Cement - Part 1: Composition, specifications and conformity criteria for common cements." (partial amendment in 1 page, in Arabic).
It should be noted that the Ministerial Decree No. 298 /2023 (1 page, in Arabic) and the Ministerial Decree No.326/2023 (1 page, in Arabic) which were formerly notified in G/TBT/N/EGY/3/Add.60 dated 27 September 2023, the Ministerial Decree No. 189 /2023 (1 page, in Arabic) which was formerly notified in G/TBT/N/EGY/3/Add.57 dated 14 July 2023 and the Ministerial Decree No. 561/2022 (2 pages, in Arabic) which was formerly notified in G/TBT/N/EGY/3/Add.53 dated 20 December 2022, mandated among others the earlier versions of this Egyptian standard.
