(Main)Aggregates for mortar
Aggregates for mortar
This European Standard specifies the properties of aggregates obtained by processing natural, manufactured or recycled materials and mixtures of these aggregates for use in mortars, renders and screeds, e.g.
a) masonry mortar,
b) floor/screed mortar,
c) surfacing of internal walls (plastering mortar),
d) rendering of external walls,
e) special bedding materials,
f) repair mortar,
g) grouts,
for buildings, roads and civil engineering works.
It covers aggregates having an oven dried particle density greater than 2,00 Mg/m3 (2 000 kg/m3). It also covers recycled aggregate with densities greater than 1,50 Mg/m3 (1 500 kg/m3). A list of the source materials that have been considered and indicating those which are within the scope of this standard is given in Annex A (normative) Requirements for the evaluation of conformity of the products to this European Standard are given in EN 16236. It incorporates a general requirement that aggregates will not release any dangerous substances in excess of the maximum permitted levels specified in a relevant European Standard for the material or permitted in the national regulations of the member state of destination. The tables in this standard include categories that are common across the four main aggregate standards: EN 12620, EN 13043, EN 13139 and EN 13242. Not all of these categories are appropriate for aggregates for
use in mortars, renders and screeds. Categories, notes, comments etc., which are grey shaded, should not be used for mortars. Aggregates used in construction should comply with all the relevant requirements of the appropriate European Standards for aggregates. These standards include comprehensive and specific requirements for natural aggregates, iron and steel making slag and recycled aggregates, dealing with, for example, the stability of certain basalts, the expansion of certain slags and the constitution of recycled aggregates. For materials from some other secondary sources, however, work is on-going and the requirements are incomplete. In the meantime such materials, when placed on the market as aggregates, will comply fully with this standard but may also be required to comply with specific relevant additional requirements at the place of use. Additional characteristics and requirements may be specified on a case-by-case basis depending upon experience of use of the product, and defined in specific contractual documents. NOTE Requirements for lightweight aggregates are specified in prEN 13055. Requirements for the declaration of the potential of aggregates to release regulated dangerous substances are currently under development. Until such time as these are finalized, attention should be paid to requirements at the place of use.
Gesteinskörnungen für Mörtel
Diese Europäische Norm legt die Eigenschaften von Gesteinskörnungen fest, die durch Aufbereitung natürlicher, industriell hergestellter oder rezyklierter Materialien und ihrer Mischungen gewonnen werden und für die Verwendung in Mörtel, Putzmörtel und Estrichen für Gebäude, Straßen und Ingenieurbauten vorgesehen sind, z. B.: a) Mauermörtel; b) Estrichmörtel; c) Innenputzmörtel; d) Außenputzmörtel; e) besondere Vergussmörtel; f) Reparaturmörtel; g) Einpressmörtel. Sie deckt Gesteinskörnungen mit einer Kornrohdichte nach Trocknung im Wärmeschrank größer als 2,00 Mg/m3 (2 000 kg/m3) ab. Die Norm deckt ebenfalls rezyklierte Gesteinskörnungen mit einer Rohdichte zwischen 1,50 Mg/m3 (1 500 kg/m3) und 2,00 Mg/m3 (2 000 kg/m3) ab. Anhang A (normativ) enthält ein Verzeichnis der berücksichtigten Ausgangsmaterialien, die im Anwendungsbereich dieser Norm liegen. Anforderungen an die Bewertung der Konformität von Produkten nach dieser Europäischen Norm sind in FprEN 16236 enthalten. Die Norm enthält die allgemeine Anforderung, dass die Freisetzung gefährlicher Stoffe aus Gesteinskörnungen die in der für das Material einschlägigen Europäischen Norm maximal zulässigen Grenzwerte bzw. die nach den nationalen Bestimmungen des Bestimmungsmitgliedstaats zulässigen Grenzwerte nicht übersteigen darf (siehe ANMERKUNG 3). ANMERKUNG 1 Gesteinskörnungen im Bauwesen sollten mit allen einschlägigen Anforderungen der jeweiligen Europäischen Normen für Gesteinskörnungen übereinstimmen. Diese Normen enthalten umfassende und spezifische Anforderungen an natürliche Gesteinskörnungen, Hochofenstück- und Stahlwerksschlacken und rezyklierte Gesteinskörnungen, die sich zum Beispiel mit der Raumbeständigkeit einiger Basalte, der Volumenzunahme bestimmter Schlacken und der Zusammensetzung von rezyklierten Gesteinskörnungen befassen. Die Arbeiten an Materialien aus weiteren sekundären Quellen sind jedoch noch nicht abgeschlossen und die Anforderungen sind unvollständig.
Granulats pour mortiers
Cette Norme Européenne spécifie les caractéristiques des granulats élaborés à partir de matériaux naturels, artificiels ou recyclés et de mélanges de ces granulats utilisés dans les mortiers, les mortiers d'enduit et les mortiers pour chapes, par exemple :
a) mortier de maçonnerie ;
b) mortier pour chape ou plancher ;
c) surfaçage des parois intérieures (mortier pour enduit) ;
d) enduit des parois extérieures ;
e) matériaux spéciaux de scellement ;
f) mortier pour réparation ;
g) mortier de coulis,
pour les bâtiments, routes et travaux de génie civil.
Elle s'applique aux granulats dont la masse volumique réelle après séchage à l'étuve est supérieure à 2,00 Mg/m3 (2 000 kg/m3). Elle s'applique également aux granulats recyclés dont la masse volumique réelle est supérieure à 1,50 Mg/m3 (1 500 kg/m3).
Une liste des origines des matériaux qui ont été prises en considération et relèvent du domaine d'application de la présente norme est donnée à l'Annexe A (normative).
Les exigences relatives à l’évaluation de la conformité sont spécifiées dans l’EN 16236.
La présente norme intègre une exigence générale stipulant que les granulats ne doivent dégager aucune substance dangereuse dont les valeurs d'émission dépassent les niveaux maximaux admissibles spécifiés dans une Norme européenne pertinente pour le matériau ou dans la réglementation nationale de l'Etat membre de destination.
Les tableaux de la présente norme contiennent des catégories qui sont communes aux quatre principales normes relatives aux granulats : EN 12620, EN 13043, EN 13139 et EN 13242. Ces catégories ne sont pas toutes appropriées pour un usage des granulats dans les mortiers, les mortiers d'enduit et les mortiers pour chapes.
Les catégories, notes, commentaires, etc. qui sont grisés ne devraient pas être utilisées pour les applications dans les mortiers.
Les granulats utilisés dans la construction doivent respecter toutes les exigences des Normes européennes concernées. Ces dernières contiennent les exigences générales et particulières relatives aux granulats naturels, au laitier de haut fourneau et d'aciérie et aux granulats recyclés, et traitent par exemple de la stabilité de certains basaltes, de l'expansion de certains laitiers et de la composition des granulats recyclés.
Cependant, pour les matériaux provenant d’autres sources secondaires, les travaux sont en cours et les exigences sont incomplètes. En attendant, il convient que ces matériaux, lorsqu'ils sont mis sur le marché en tant que granulats, respectent pleinement la présente norme, mais ils peuvent aussi devoir se conformer à des exigences complémentaires spécifiques pertinentes sur le lieu d'utilisation. Des caractéristiques et des exigences complémentaires peuvent être spécifiées au cas par cas, en fonction de l'expérience acquise à l'usage du produit, et définies dans des documents contractuels spécifiques.
NOTE Les caractéristiques des granulats légers sont spécifiées dans le prEN 13055.
Les exigences relatives à la déclaration du potentiel des granulats à relarguer des substances dangereuses réglementées sont actuellement en cours d'élaboration. Tant qu'elles ne sont pas finalisées, il convient de tenir compte des exigences en vigueur sur le lieu d'utilisation.
Agregati za malte
Ta evropski standard določa lastnosti agregatov, pridobljenih z obdelavo naravnih, umetnih ali recikliranih materialov, in zmesi teh agregatov za uporabo v maltah, ometih in estrihih, npr.
a) malta za zidanje:
b) malta za estrihe/talna malta;
c) notranji ometi,
d) zunanji ometi,
e) posebni materiali za podlago,
f) malta za popravila,
g) injekcijske mase
za stavbe, ceste in gradbene inženirske objekte.
Zajema agregate s prostorninsko maso sušenih zrn, večjo od 2,00 mg/m3 (2000 kg/m3). Zajema tudi agregate s prostorninsko maso, večjo od 1,50 mg/m3 (1500 kg/m3). Seznam obravnavanih izvornih materialov, ki določa materiale, vključene v predmet tega standarda, je naveden v dodatku A (normativni). Zahteve za vrednotenje skladnosti izdelkov s tem evropskim standardom so navedene v standardu EN 16236. Vključuje splošno zahtevo o tem, da agregati ne smejo oddajati nobenih nevarnih snovi v količinah, ki so večje od največjih dovoljenih količin v ustreznem evropskem standardu za materiale ali v nacionalni zakonodaji države članice. Razpredelnice v tem standardu vključujejo kategorije, ki so skupne vsem štirim glavnim standardom za agregate: EN 12620, EN 13043, EN 13139 in EN 13242. Nekatere od teh kategorij niso primerne za agregate za uporabo v maltah, ometih in estrihih. Kategorije, opombe, komentarji itd. v sivi barvi se ne smejo uporabljati v maltah. Agregati, ki se uporabljajo pri konstrukcijah, morajo izpolnjevati ustrezne zahteve primernih evropskih standardov za agregate. Ti standardi vključujejo celovite in posebne zahteve za naravne agregate, žlindro, nastalo pri pridobivanju železa in jekla, in reciklirane agregate ter obravnavajo na primer stabilnost nekaterih bazaltov, raztezek nekaterih vrst žlindre in sestavo recikliranih agregatov. Za materiale iz nekaterih drugih sekundarnih virov oblikovanje standardov še poteka in so zahteve nepopolne. Kadar so taki materiali dani na tržišče kot agregati, morajo v celoti ustrezati temu standardu in morajo biti morda skladni tudi s posebnimi ustreznimi dodatnimi zahtevami, ki veljajo na območju uporabe. Dodatne značilnosti in zahteve se lahko določijo za vsak posamezen primer glede na izkušnje pri uporabi izdelka in so opredeljene v posebnih pogodbenih dokumentih. OPOMBA Zahteve za lahke agregate so določene v standardu prEN 13055. Zahteve za izjavo o kapaciteti agregatov za izpust reguliranih nevarnih snovi so v pripravi. Dokler te zahteve niso dokončno oblikovane, je treba upoštevati zahteve na območju uporabe.

EN 13139:2013 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the properties of aggregates obtained by processing natural, manufactured or recycled materials and mixtures of these aggregates for use in mortars, renders and screeds, e.g. a) masonry mortar, b) floor/screed mortar, c) surfacing of internal walls (plastering mortar), d) rendering of external walls, e) special bedding materials, f) repair mortar, g) grouts, for buildings, roads and civil engineering works. It covers aggregates having an oven dried particle density greater than 2,00 Mg/m3 (2 000 kg/m3). It also covers recycled aggregate with densities between 1,50 Mg/m3 (1 500 kg/m3) and 2,00 Mg/m3 (2 000 kg/m3). A list of the source materials that have been considered and indicating those which are within the scope of this standard is given in Annex A (normative) Requirements for the evaluation of conformity of the products to this European Standard are given in EN 16236. It incorporates a general requirement that aggregates will not release any dangerous substances in excess of the maximum permitted levels specified in a relevant European Standard for the material or permitted in the national regulations of the member state of destination. The tables in this standard include categories that are common across the four main aggregate standards: EN 12620, EN 13043, EN 13139 and EN 13242. Not all of these categories are appropriate for aggregates for use in mortars, renders and screeds. Categories, notes, comments etc., which are grey shaded, should not be used for mortars. Aggregates used in construction should comply with all the relevant requirements of the appropriate European Standards for aggregates. These standards include comprehensive and specific requirements for natural aggregates, iron and steel making slag and recycled aggregates, dealing with, for example, the stability of certain basalts, the expansion of certain slags and the constitution of recycled aggregates. For materials from some other secondary sources, however, work is on-going and the requirements are incomplete. In the meantime such materials, when placed on the market as aggregates, will comply fully with this standard but may also be required to comply with specific relevant additional requirements at the place of use. Additional characteristics and requirements may be specified on a case-by-case basis depending upon experience of use of the product, and defined in specific contractual documents. NOTE Requirements for lightweight aggregates are specified in prEN 13055. Requirements for the declaration of the potential of aggregates to release regulated dangerous substances are currently under development. Until such time as these are finalized, attention should be paid to requirements at the place of use. SIST EN 13139:2013

SIST EN 13139:2013
EN 13139:2013 (E) 8 3.11 all-in aggregate aggregate consisting of a mixture of coarse and fine aggregates with D greater than 4 mm and d = 0 Note 1 to entry: It can be produced without separating into coarse and fine fractions or it can be produced by combining coarse and fine aggregates. 3.12 filler aggregate aggregate, most of which passes a 0,063 mm sieve, which can be added to construction materials to provide certain properties 3.13 added filler filler aggregate of mineral origin, which has been produced separately 3.14 particle size fraction fraction of an aggregate passing the larger of two sieves and retained on the smaller Note 1 to entry: The lower limit can be zero. 3.15 oversize part of the aggregate retained on the larger of the limiting sieves used in aggregate size description 3.16 undersize that part of the aggregate passing the smaller of the limiting sieves used in aggregate size description 3.17 batch production quantity, a delivery quantity, a partial delivery quantity (railway wagon, load, lorry-load, ship's cargo) or a stockpile produced at one time under conditions that are presumed uniform Note 1 to entry: With a continuous process the quantity produced during a specified period should be treated as a batch. 4 Geometrical requirements 4.1 General The necessity for testing and declaring all properties specified in this clause shall be limited according to the particular application at end use or origin of the aggregate. When required, the aggregates shall be tested as specified in Clause 4 to determine the relevant geometrical properties. When the value of a property is required but not defined by specified limits the value should be declared as an XX Declared category. NOTE 1 When a property is not required, a “No requirement” category can be used. NOTE 2 Guidance on selection of appropriate categories for specific applications can be found in national provisions in the place of use of the aggregate. NOTE 3 Where conformity with a category is based on a value of a property being less than or equal to a given value, conformity with a more severe category (lower value) automatically confers conformity with all less severe categories (higher values). Similarly for categories based on the value of a property being greater than or equal to a given value, SIST EN 13139:2013
EN 13139:2013 (E) 9 conformity with a more severe (higher value) automatically confers conformity with all less severe categories (lower values). The tables in this standard include categories which are common across the four main aggregate standards: EN 12620, EN 13043, EN 13139 and EN 13242. Categories, notes, comments, etc., which are shown grey shaded should not be used for mortars. 4.2 Aggregate sizes All aggregates shall be described in terms of aggregate sizes using the designations d/D except for aggregates added as fillers, which shall be described as filler aggregate and shall conform to the grading requirements specified in 4.3. Aggregate sizes shall be described by the pair of sieve sizes in millimetres selected from the basic set or the basic set plus set 1 or the basic set plus set 2 in Table 1 with d as the lower limit designation and D as the upper limit designation sieve between which most of the particle size distribution lies, (e.g. 0/4 mm, 0/2 mm, 2/4 mm etc.). Aggregates according to this standard are limited in their grading to D ≤ 8 mm.

EN 13139:2013 (E) 10 4.3 Grading 4.3.1 General The grading of the aggregate, when determined in accordance with EN 933-1, shall conform to the requirements of 4.3.2 to 4.3.5 as appropriate to its aggregate size d/D. Aggregates may comprise single sizes, all-in aggregates or combinations of two or more than two sizes. Aggregates supplied as a mixture of different sizes or types should be uniformly blended. When aggregates of significantly different density are blended, caution is necessary to avoid segregation. When assessing aggregates within a system of factory production control, at least 90 % of gradings, taken on different batches within a maximum period of 6 months, shall fall within the limits specified in Tables 2 to 4 for tolerances on manufacturer declared typical gradings. Where the specification requires the use of sieves which are a fraction or a multiple of the upper sieve size (e.g. D/2; D/1,4 or 1,4D; 2D ) the sieve chosen shall be the nearest from basic set plus set 1 or basic set plus set 2.

NOTE 1 Recommendations for the description of the coarseness of the aggregates are given in Annex B. NOTE 2 The majority of fine aggregates in regular satisfactory use for most applications conform to general use grading requirements. It is not intended that special use gradings should apply except where essential for particular applications. 4.3.5 Special use aggregates and declared grading categories When special aggregates gradings are required for a particular end use, or to define a specific source special grading envelopes shall be defined using the appropriate sieves from Table 1. The general principles of Clause 4 shall be applied using appropriate requirements at 2D, 1,4D, D, d, d/2. The grading category shall be quoted as DGX/Y to indicate clearly that it is a declared or special use category. 4.3.6 Grading of added filler The grading is determined in accordance with EN 933-10 and shall conform to the values specified in Table 5. The typical grading for each filler aggregate size produced shall, when required, be documented and declared. Table 5 — Grading requirements for added filler

If the fines content is greater than 3 %, the fines of fine or all-in aggregate shall be considered non-harmful (e.g. swelling of clay) when one of the two following conditions apply: a) The sand equivalent value (SE) of the required size fraction, when tested in accordance with EN 933-8 and declared in accordance with the relevant size fraction and category in Table 7, is higher than a specified limit. b) The methylene blue value (MB) on the required size fraction, when tested in accordance with EN 933-9 and declared in accordance with the relevant size fraction and category in Table 8, is lower than a specified limit. The compliance requirements for the sand equivalent test and the methylene blue test should normally be expressed with a probability of 90 %. NOTE
If the fines content is greater than 3 % by mass and there is documented evidence of satisfactory use, further testing might not be necessary.

FprEN 13139:2011 (E) 3 Foreword This document (FprEN 13139:2011) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 154 “Aggregates”, the secretariat of which is held by BSI. This document will supersede EN 13139:2002. This document is currently submitted to the Unique Acceptance Procedure. This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directives including 89/106/EEC (CPD). For relationship with EU Directive(s), see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this document. Annex A is normative. Requirements for other end uses of aggregates are specified in the following European Standards: EN 12620, Aggregates for concrete; EN 13043, Aggregates for bituminous mixtures and surface treatments for roads, airfields and other trafficked areas; EN 13055-1, Lightweight aggregates — Part 1: Lightweight aggregates for concrete, mortar and grout; EN 13055-2, Lightweight aggregates — Part 2: Lightweight aggregates for bituminous mixtures and surface treatments and for unbound and bound applications; EN 13139, Aggregates for mortar; EN 13242, Aggregates for unbound and hydraulically bound materials for use in civil engineering work and road construction; EN 13383-1, Armourstone — Part 1: Specification; EN 13383-2, Armourstone — Part 2: Test methods; EN 13450, Aggregates for railway ballast.

FprEN 13139:2011 (E) 4 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the properties of aggregates obtained by processing natural, manufactured or recycled materials and mixtures of these aggregates for use in mortars, renders and screeds, e.g. a) masonry mortar, b) floor/screed mortar, c) surfacing of internal walls (plastering mortar), d) rendering of external walls, e) special bedding materials, f) repair mortar, g) grouts, for buildings, roads and civil engineering works. It covers aggregates having an oven dried particle density greater than 2,00 Mg/m3 (2 000 kg/m3). It also covers recycled aggregate with densities between 1,50 Mg/m3 (1 500 kg/m3) and 2,00 Mg/m3 (2 000 kg/m3). A list of the source materials that have been considered and are within the scope of this standard is given in Annex A (normative) Requirements for the evaluation of conformity of the products to this European Standard are given in FprEN 16236. It incorporates a general requirement that aggregates will not release any dangerous substances in excess of the maximum permitted levels specified in a relevant European Standard for the material or permitted in the national regulations of the member state of destination (see Note 3). NOTE 1 Aggregates used in construction should comply with all the relevant requirements of the appropriate European Standards for aggregates. These standards include comprehensive and specific requirements for natural aggregates, iron and steel making slag and recycled aggregates, dealing with, for example, the stability of certain basalts, the expansion of certain slags and the constitution of recycled aggregates. For materials from some other secondary sources, however, work is ongoing and the requirements are incomplete. In the meantime such materials, when placed on the market as aggregates, will comply fully with this standard but may also be required to comply with specific relevant additional requirements at the place of use. Additional characteristics and requirements may be specified on a case-by-case basis depending upon experience of use of the product, and defined in specific contractual documents. NOTE 2 Properties for lightweight aggregates are specified in EN 13055. NOTE 3
Requirements for the declaration of the potential of aggregates to release regulated dangerous substances are currently under development. Until such time as these are finalized, attention should be paid to requirements at the place of use. NOTE 4 The Tables in this standard include categories that are common across the four main aggregate standards: EN 12620, EN 13043, EN 13139 and EN 13242. Not all of these categories are appropriate for aggregates for use in mortars, renders and screeds. Those categories, which are appropriate for mortar, are shown grey shaded. kSIST FprEN 13139:2011

When required, the aggregates shall be tested as specified in Clause 4 to determine the relevant geometrical properties. NOTE 1 When the value of a property is required but not defined by specified limits the value should be declared as an XX Declared category. NOTE 2 When a property is not required, a “No requirement” category can be used. NOTE 3 Guidance on selection of appropriate categories for specific applications can be found in national provisions in the place of use of the aggregate. NOTE 4 Where conformity with a category is based on a value of a property being less than or equal to a given value, conformity with a more severe category (lower value) automatically confers conformity with all less severe categories (higher values). Similarly for categories based on the value of a property being greater than or equal to a given value, conformity with a more severe (higher value) automatically confers conformity with all less severe categories (lower values). 4.2 Aggregate sizes All aggregates shall be described in terms of aggregate sizes using the designations d/D except for aggregates added as fillers, which shall be described as filler aggregate and shall conform to the grading requirements specified in 4.3. kSIST FprEN 13139:2011

Aggregates may comprise single sizes, all-in aggregates or combinations of two or more than two sizes. NOTE 1 Aggregates supplied as a mixture of different sizes or types should be uniformly blended. When aggregates of significantly different density are blended, caution is necessary to avoid segregation. When assessing aggregates within a system of factory production control, at least 90 % of gradings, taken on different batches within a maximum period of 6 months, shall fall within the limits specified in Tables 2 to 4 for tolerances on supplier declared typical gradings. kSIST FprEN 13139:2011

For graded aggregates, defined as those where D/d ≥ 2, all gradings shall conform to the overall limits in Table 3 appropriate to their grading category. The typical grading passing the mid size sieve shall be declared and the tolerances selected from Table 3 appropriate to the grading category shall be applied. 4.3.3 Fine aggregates Fine aggregates shall conform to the general grading requirements of Table 2 appropriate to their upper sieve size D and grading category GFYY. When required, the typical grading, in terms of the percentages passing the 4 mm, 2 mm, 1 mm, 0,250 mm and 0,063 mm sieves shall be declared.

GTCNR a In all cases the upper limit determined by fines category takes preference. b Requirements on 0,250 mm sieve are only for fine aggregates. C For 0/8 the requirement on 0,063 mm is replaced by a requirement of ± 2%; d For 0/4 there is no requirement on D/2 and is replaced by a requirement of ± 20% on the 1 mm sieve; For 0/1 there is no requirement on the D/2 sieve e For 0/8 the requirement on 0,250 mm is replaced by ± 10%; For 0/4 the requirement on 0,250 mm is replaced by ± 20%;
NOTE 1 Recommendations for the description of the coarseness of the aggregates are given in Annex B. NOTE 2 The majority of fine aggregates in regular satisfactory use for most applications conform to general use grading requirements. It is not intended that special use gradings should apply except where essential for particular applications. 4.3.5 Special use aggregates and declared grading categories When special aggregates gradings are required for a particular end use, or to define a specific source special grading envelopes shall be defined using the appropriate sieves from Table 1. The general principles of Clause 4 shall be applied using appropriate requirements at 2D, 1,4D, D, d, d/2. The grading category shall be quoted as DGXY to indicate clearly that it is a declared or special use category. 4.3.6 Grading for filler aggregates The grading of filler aggregates, when determined in accordance with EN 933-10, shall conform to the values specified in Table 5. The typical grading for each filler aggregate size produced shall, when required, be documented and declared.

If the fines content is greater than 3 %, the fines of fine or all-in aggregate shall be considered non-harmful (e.g. swelling of clay) when one of the two following conditions apply: a) The sand equivalent value (SE) of the 0/2 mm fraction, when tested in accordance with EN 933-8 and declared in accordance with the relevant category in Table 7, is higher than a specified limit. b) The methylene blue value (MB) on the 0/2 mm fraction, when tested in accordance with EN 933-9 and declared in accordance with the relevant category in Table 8, is lower than a specified limit. NOTE 1 The compliance requirements for the sand equivalent test and the methylene blue test should normally be expressed with a probability of 90 %. NOTE 2 If the fines content is greater than 3 % by mass and there is documented evidence of satisfactory use, further testing might not be necessary.

5 Physical requirements 5.1 General The necessity for testing and declaring all properties specified in this clause shall be limited according to the particular application at end use or origin of the aggregate. When required, aggregates shall be tested as specified in Clause 5 shall be carried out to determine the relevant physical properties. NOTE 1 When the value of a property is required but not defined by specified limits the value should be declared as an XXDeclared category. NOTE 2 When a property is not required, a “No requirement” category can be used. NOTE 3 Guidance on selection of appropriate categories for specific applications can be found in national provisions in the place of use of the aggregate. kSIST FprEN 13139:2011
FprEN 13139:2011 (E) 16 NOTE 4 Where conformity with a category is based on a value of a property being less than or equal to a given value, conformity with a more severe category (lower value) automatically confers conformity with all less severe categories (higher values). Similarly for categories based on the value of a property being greater than or equal to a given value, conformity with a more severe (higher value) automatically confers conformity with all less severe categories (lower values). 5.2 Particle density and water absorption 5.2.1 Particle density The particle density shall be determined in accordance with the appropriate article of EN 1097-6 (apparent density) and the results declared. 5.2.2 Water absorption The water absorption shall be determined in accordance with the appropriate article of EN 1097-6 and the results declared.
