Tests for thermal and weathering properties of aggregates - Part 2: Magnesium sulfate test

This European Standard describes the reference method used for type testing and in cases of dispute for assessing how an aggregate behaves when subjected to the cyclic action of immersion in magnesium sulfate, followed by oven drying. 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.
NOTE   The majority of aggregates can be tested for performance using this method.  Precision has been established for the rock types listed in Annex A. The test may not be suitable for all rock types and reservations have been expressed elsewhere in respect of some carbonate aggregates and some aggregates having a high proportion of magnesium bearing materials or of cryptocrystalline quartz.

Prüfverfahren für thermische Eigenschaften und Verwitterungsbeständigkeit von Gesteinskörnungen - Teil 2: Magnesiumsulfat-Verfahren

Diese Europäische Norm legt das für die Erstprüfung und in Streitfällen anzuwendende Referenzverfahren für
die Beurteilung des Verhaltens einer Gesteinskörnung fest, die einer Wechselbeanspruchung durch Eintauchen
in Magnesiumsulfat und anschließender Trocknung in einer Wärmekammer ausgesetzt wird. Für
andere Zwecke, speziell im Rahmen der werkseigenen Produktionskontrolle, dürfen andere Verfahren
angewendet werden, sofern ein ausreichender Zusammenhang zum Referenzverfahren nachgewiesen wurde.
ANMERKUNG Das Verhalten der Mehrzahl der Gesteinskörnungen kann nach diesem Verfahren geprüft werden. Die
Präzision ist für die in Anhang A aufgeführten Gesteinsarten festgestellt worden. Der Versuch ist möglicherweise nicht für
alle Gesteinsarten geeignet. Es sind Vorbehalte hinsichtlich einiger Carbonat-Gesteinskörnungen und Gesteinskörnungen
mit einem hohen Anteil an magnesiumhaltigen Mineralien oder kryptokristallinem Quarz geäußert worden.

Essais pour déterminer les propriétés thermiques et l'altérabilité des granulats - Partie 2 : Essai au sulfate de magnésium

La présente norme européenne décrit la méthode de référence utilisée pour les essais de type et, en cas de litige, pour
l’évaluation du comportement d'un granulat lorsqu'il est soumis à l'action cyclique d'immersion dans du sulfate de
magnésium, suivi d'un étuvage. Lorsque d'autres objectifs sont visés, en particulier le contrôle de fabrication en usine,
d'autres méthodes peuvent être utilisées, à condition que des corrélations appropriées avec la méthode de référence aient
été établies.
NOTE Le niveau de performance de la plupart des granulats peut être vérifié à l’aide de cette méthode d'essai. La fidélité de cette
méthode a été établie pour les types de roches énumérés dans l'annexe A. L'essai peut ne pas convenir à tous les types de roches et
des réserves ont par ailleurs été exprimées en ce qui concerne les granulats calcaires et les granulats à proportion élevée en matériaux
magnésiens ou en quartz cryptocristallin.

Preskusi lastnosti agregatov zaradi termičnih in vremenskih vplivov - 2. del: Preskus z magnezijevim sulfatom

Ta evropski standard opisuje referenčne metode, uporabljene za tipsko preskušanje in v primerih spora zaradi ocenjevanja, kako se agregat obnaša, ko je izpostavljen cikličnemu potapljanju v magnezijev sulfat, nato pa sušenju v peči. Za ostale namene, zlasti v kontroli proizvodnje, se lahko uporabijo druge metode, pod pogojem, da je bilo vzpostavljeno primerno delovno razmerje z referenčno metodo.

EN 1367-2:2009 (E) 5 3.3 test portion sample used as a whole in a single test 4 Principle Two test specimens of aggregate in the size range 10 mm to 14 mm are subjected to five cycles of immersion in a saturated solution of magnesium sulfate, followed by oven drying at (110 ± 5) ºC. This subjects the test specimens of aggregate to the disruptive effects of the repeated crystallization and rehydration of magnesium sulfate within the pores of the aggregate. The degradation arising from the disruptive effects is measured by the extent to which material finer than 10 mm in particle size is produced. NOTE The procedure can also be applied to other aggregate fractions (Annex B) or combinations of fractions (Annex C). 5 Sampling The laboratory sample to be used for the test shall be taken in accordance with EN 932-1. 6 Apparatus Unless otherwise stated, all apparatus shall conform to the general requirements of EN 932-5. 6.1 Test sieves, conforming to EN 933-2, of 10 mm and 14 mm size. 6.2 Balance, of 2 kg capacity, accurate to 0,1 g. 6.3 Brass or stainless steel mesh baskets, at least two, for immersing test specimens in the solution. A suitable design is shown in Figure 1. 6.4 Containers, such that the baskets listed in 6.3 can be readily placed in and out, complying with the minimum separation clearances specified in 9.1, and with a volume at least five times the volume of the immersed aggregate. 6.5 Tank or tank rooms, capable of maintaining the temperature of the solution inside the containers at (20 ± 2) ºC during the immersion stages. 6.6 Ventilated drying oven with forced air circulation, of adequate capacity.
The oven shall be capable of being controlled at (110 ± 5) ºC. 6.7 Density hydrometer, complying with ISO 649-1 and graduated at 20 ºC for medium surface tension 55 mN/m to measure densities in the range of 1,284 g/ml to 1,300 g/ml to an accuracy of 0,001 g/ml. 6.8 Desiccator, large enough to contain at least two of the baskets listed in 6.3. 6.9 Thermometer, of range 0 ºC to 120 ºC and accurate to 1 ºC. 6.10 Timing device, such that the full range of timed periods can be measured to an accuracy of ±1 min.

EN 1367-2:2009 (E) 6 7 Reagents 7.1 Distilled, or deionized water. 7.2 Barium chloride 5 % solution, made by dissolving 5 g of barium chloride in 100 ml of distilled water. 7.3 Saturated solution of magnesium sulfate, which may be made by dissolving magnesium sulfate heptahydrate of reagent grade in distilled or deionized water. 7.3.1 Prepare the solution by slowly adding 1 500 g of the crystalline salt to each litre of water.
A minimum of 3 l is required for each test. NOTE It is advisable to prepare a second batch of solution using the above procedure as a reserve, in case of solution failure during the test procedure, see
9.3. During preparation, maintain the temperature of the solution between 25 ºC and 30 ºC and stir thoroughly during the addition of the crystals. After preparation, lower the temperature to (20 ± 2) ºC, and maintain at this temperature for (48 ± 1) h. 7.3.2 Prior to use, check that the solution has achieved a density of (1,292 ± 0,008) g/ml by decanting a portion of the solution into a glass jar, measuring the density with the hydrometer, and returning the solution to the container. 8 Preparation of test specimens 8.1 Reduce the laboratory sample in accordance with EN 932-2 to produce two test specimens of sufficient mass such that each will produce a minimum of 500 g of the 10 mm to 14 mm size when processed as specified in 8.3. NOTE Guidance on testing other fractions is given in Annex B and on testing all fractions in Annex C. 8.2 Dry each test specimen in the oven at (110 ± 5) ºC for (24 ± 1) h, and allow to cool in the desiccator to laboratory temperature. 8.3 Sieve each test specimen using the 10 mm and 14 mm sieves to reject oversize and undersize to give a mass of approximately 500 g each. 8.4 Wash each test specimen with distilled water until free from dust, allow to drain and dry in the oven as specified in 8.2. 8.5 Repeat the sieving as specified in 8.3, to ensure that only material in the 10 mm to 14 mm range is used. 8.6 Weigh out between (420 ± 0,1) g and (430 ± 0,1) g from each test specimen and record the masses (M1).
Transfer the test specimens to two labelled mesh baskets. Avoid shaking
