Gesteinskörnungen für Mortel

Diese Europäische Norm legt die Merkmale von Gesteinskörnungen und Füllern fest, die durch Aufbereitung natürlicher, industriell hergestellter oder rezyklierter Stoffe und ihrer Mischungen gewonnen werden und für die Verwendung in Mörtel, Außenputz und Estrich, z. B. Mauermörtel, Estrichmörtel, Innenputzmörtel, Außenputz¬mörtel, besondere Vergussmörtel, Reparaturmörtel und Einpressmörtel, bestimmt und für den Einsatz im Hochbau, im Straßenbau und bei Ingenieurbauten vorgesehen sind.
Sie gilt für Gesteinskörnungen mit einer Rohdichte von mehr als 2,00 Mg/m3. Sie umfasst auch rezyklierte sowie industriell hergestellte Gesteinskörnungen mit einer Rohdichte größer als 1,50 Mg/m3, wobei die entsprechenden Vorbehalte gelten (siehe Anhang A). Die Bewertung der Dichte von rezyklierten Gesteinskörnungen wird normalerweise an groben Kornfraktionen durchgeführt.
ANMERKUNG 1   Eigenschaften von leichten Gesteinskörnungen siehe EN 13055.
Der Einsatz von Gesteinskörnungen als Boden wird von dieser Norm nicht abgedeckt.
ANMERKUNG 2   Wegen der großen Unterschiede in den geologischen und pedologischen Gegebenheiten in Europa sind genauere Informationen zu Bodenstoffen in Dokumenten zu finden, die sich mit ihrer Verwendung am jeweiligen Einsatzort befassen.
Anhang A (normativ) enthält eine Liste von betrachteten Ausgangsstoffen, die in den Anwendungsbereich der Norm fallen.
Festlegungen hinsichtlich der Bewertung und Überprüfung der Leistungsbeständigkeit (AVCP, en: Assessment and Verification of the Constancy of Performance) von Gesteinskörnungen nach dieser Norm sind in EN 16236 zu finden.
Gesteinskörnungen für die Verwendung im Bauwesen müssen alle Anforderungen der einschlägigen Europäischen Normen über diese Stoffe erfüllen. Diese Normen legen allgemeine und besondere Anforderungen an natürliche Gesteinskörnungen, industriell hergestellte Gesteinskörnungen und rezyklierte Gesteinskörnungen, wie beispielsweise hinsichtlich der Volumenstabilität und dem Glühverlust bestimmter industriell hergestellter Gesteinskörnungen (Schlacke, Flugasche) fest.

Granulats pour mortiers

Cette Norme Européenne spécifie les caractéristiques des granulats et des fillers 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 : mortier de maçonnerie, mortier pour chape ou plancher, surfaçage des parois intérieures (mortier pour enduit), enduit des parois extérieures, matériaux spéciaux de scellement, mortier pour réparation, 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. Elle s'applique également aux granulats recyclés et artificiels dont la masse volumique réelle est supérieure à 1,50 Mg/m3, avec les mises en garde appropriées (voir Annexe A). L’évaluation de la densité des granulats recyclés est typiquement effectuée sur les gravillons.
NOTE 1   Les propriétés des granulats légers sont spécifiées dans l’EN 13055.
L’utilisation de sol n’est pas couverte par la présente norme.
NOTE 2   en raison de l’importante variabilité des conditions géologiques et pédologiques en Europe, la définition précise du sol peut être trouvée dans les documents relatifs à l’application sur le lieu d’utilisation.
Une liste des origines des matériaux qui ont été prises en considération et relèvent du domaine d'application de la présente norme est donnée en Annexe A (normative).
Les exigences relatives à l’Evaluation et la Vérification de la Constance des Performances (EVCP) des produits de cette norme européenne sont spécifiées dans le FprEN 16236.
Les granulats utilisés dans la construction doivent respecter toutes les exigences des Normes européennes concernées pour les granulats. Ces dernières contiennent les exigences générales et particulières relatives aux granulats naturels, aux granulats artificiels et recyclés, et traitent par exemple de la stabilité volumique et la perte au feu de certain granulats artificiels (laitier, cendres volantes).

Foreword
This document (prEN 13139:2015) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 154 “Aggregates”,
the secretariat of which is held by BSI.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. CEN shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
This document will supersede EN 13139:2002.
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 Construction Products Regulation
(EU) No. 305/2011.
For relationship with EU Regulation(s), see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this document.
The most significant technical changes compared to the previous edition include:
a) Harmonisation of vocabulary and Annex ZA to be consistent with Construction Products Regulation;
b) Unification of categories which are common across the four main aggregate standards: EN 12620,
EN 13043, EN 13139 and EN 13242;
c) Description of assessment and verification of conformity of performance of aggregates (AVCP) - type
testing and factory production control in a separate new standard prEN 16236;
d) Implementing general sentences on dangerous substances and adding a new normative Annex A dealing
with all source materials considered;
e) Unification of definitions which are common across the four main aggregate standards: EN 12620,
EN 13043, EN 13139 and EN 13242, i. e. for coarse, fine, all-in aggregates and natural graded 0/8
aggregates;
f) Adding categories for the sand equivalent value for fines quality;
g) Adding categories for the methylene blue value for fines quality;
In this document the wording ‘property’ and ‘characteristic’ have the same meaning.
Requirements for assessment and verification of the constancy of performance are given in prEN 16236.
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, Lightweight aggregates
— 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 13450, Aggregates for railway ballast.

Note: Due to fact that the EC has not yet been able to confirm the financial commitment for the New
Approach Consultants’ work in 2015, there are currently no New Approach Consultants in place for 2015.
Therefore the provisions of CEN-CENELEC Guide 15 cannot be met.

This shall not prevent the processing of draft standards nor the offering of harmonized standards to the
European Commission. In particular, draft standards can be sent to vote without Consultant assessment.

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. masonry
mortar, floor/screed mortar, surfacing of internal walls (plastering mortar), rendering of external walls, special
bedding materials, repair mortar and grouts for buildings, roads and civil engineering works.

It covers aggregates having an oven dried particle density greater than 2,00 Mg/m . It also covers coarse
3 3
recycled and all-in aggregate with densities between 1,50 Mg/m and 2,00 Mg/m with appropriate caveats
(See Annex A).
NOTE 1 Properties for lightweight aggregates are specified in EN 13055.
Use of soil is not covered by the present standard.
NOTE 2 Due to huge variation of geological and pedagogical conditions in Europe, precise definition of soil can be
found in the documents related to the application in the place of use.
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 Assessment and Verification of the Constancy of Performance (AVCP) of aggregates to
this European Standard are given in prEN 16236.
Aggregates used in construction shall conform with all the requirements of the relevant 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.

4 General requirements
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 grey shaded,
are not used for aggregates for use in mortars, renders and screeds.
NOTE Guidance on selection of appropriate categories for specific applications can be found in the place of use of
the aggregate.
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).

oSIST prEN 13139:2015
prEN 13139:2015 (E)
When the value of a property is required but not defined by specified limits the value should be declared as an
XX category, e.g., a value of say 55 for the flakiness index corresponds to FI 55 (Declared
Declared Declared
category).
When a property is not required, a “No requirement” category may be used.
5 Geometrical requirements
5.1 General
The necessity for testing and declaring all properties specified in clause 5 shall be limited according to the
particular application at end use or origin of the aggregate. When required, the tests specified in clause 5 shall
be carried out to determine appropriate geometrical properties.
5.2 Aggregate sizes
All aggregates shall be described in terms of aggregate sizes using the designations d/D, and shall comply
with the grading requirements specified in 5.3, except for aggregates added as fillers which shall be specified
as filler aggregate.
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.).
A combination of sizes from set 1 and set 2 is not permissible.
Aggregate sizes shall have D/d not less than 1,4.

5.3 Grading
5.3.1 General
The grading of the aggregate, when determined in accordance with EN 933-1, shall conform to the
requirements of 5.3.2 to 5.3.5 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.
