Tests for geometrical properties of aggregates - Part 8: Assessment of fines - Sand equivalent test
This European Standard describes the reference method used for type testing and in case of dispute for the determination of the sand equivalent value of 0/2 mm fraction (for 0/4 mm, see Annex A) in fine aggregates or all-in aggregates. For other purposes, in particular factory production control, other methods may be used provided that an appropriate working relationship with the reference method has been established.

Foreword
This document (EN 933-8:2012) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 154
“Aggregates”, the secretariat of which is held by BSI.
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an
identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by July 2012, and conflicting national standards shall be
withdrawn at the latest by July 2012.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. CEN [and/or CENELEC] shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such
patent rights.

4 Principle
A 0/2 mm test specimen of aggregate with a maximum fines content of 10 % (either natural or
obtained after grading curve adjustment) and a small quantity of washing and flocculating solution are
poured into a graduated cylinder and are agitated to loosen the clay coatings from the coarser
particles in the test portion. The aggregate is then ‘irrigated’ using additional washing and flocculating
solution forcing the fine particles into suspension. After a fixed time, the sand equivalent value
(SE(10)) is calculated as the height of sediment expressed as a percentage of the total height of
sediment and suspension in the cylinder.
5 Reagents
5.1 Concentrated solution, made up of:
a) crystalline calcium chloride, CaCl .6H O or anhydrous calcium chloride, CaCl ;
2 2 2
b) glycerine, 99 % glycerol, laboratory reagent quality;
c) formaldehyde solution, 40 % by volume, laboratory reagent quality;
d) distilled or demineralised water.
Dissolve (219 ± 2) g of crystalline calcium chloride in (350 ± 50) ml of distilled or demineralised water,
cool to room temperature and if necessary filter through a medium or coarse grade filter paper. Add
(480 ± 5) g of glycerine and (12,5 ± 0,5) g of formaldehyde solution and dilute to 1 l of solution with
distilled or demineralised water and mix thoroughly.
NOTE 1 219 g CaCl .6H 0 6H O is equivalent to 111 g anhydrous calcium chloride CaCl .

NOTE 2 It is recommended that the concentrated solution is stored protected from light in glass or plastics
flasks containing (125 ± 1) ml.
NOTE 3 Sodium hypochlorite (bleach) with 2,6 % active chloride can be used instead of formaldehyde. In
case of dispute, use formaldehyde.
5.2 Washing and flocculating solution, prepared by diluting (125 ± 1) ml concentrated
solution (5.1) to (5,00 ± 0,01) l using distilled or demineralised water.
NOTE In preparing the washing solution, the concentrated solution should first be vigorously shaken and
subsequently its container should be rinsed several times u
