    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Specifies the method for determining the shell content of coarse aggregates and is applicable to gravel or mixed aggregate containing gravel.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This European Standard specifies a method for the determination of shell content of coarse aggregates. It applies to gravel or mixed aggregate containing gravel. The test method specified in this part of this European Standard is applicable to particle size fractions di/Di where Di ≤ 63 mm and di ≥ 4 mm. NOTE For aggregate sizes with D > 63 mm and/or d < 4 mm the test may be carried out on particle size fractions di/Di where Di ≤ 63 mm and di ≥ 4 mm.
