This European Standard specifies the properties of lightweight aggregates and fillers derived thereof
obtained by processing natural, manufactured or recycled materials and mixtures of these aggregates
for bituminous mixtures and surface treatments and for unbound and hydraulically bound applications
other than concrete, mortar and grout.
This European Standard covers lightweight aggregates of mineral origin having particle densities not
exceeding 2000 kg/m3 (2,00 Mg/m3) or loose bulk densities not exceeding 1200 kg/m3 (1,20 Mg/m3)
including:
a) natural aggregates;
b) aggregates manufactured from natural materials and/or from by-products of industrial processes;
c) by-products of industrial processes;
d) recycled aggregates.
It provides for the evaluation of conformity of the products to this European Standard.
The requirements specified in this standard may not be relevant to all types of lightweight aggregates.
For particular applications the requirements and tolerances can be adapted for the end use.
NOTE Aggregates used in construction should comply with all the requirements of this European Standard.
As well as familiar and traditional natural and manufactured aggregates Mandate M/125 "Aggregates" included
recycled aggregates and some materials from new or unfamiliar sources. Recycled aggregates are included in
the standards and new test methods for them are at an advanced stage of preparation. For unfamiliar materials
from secondary sources, however, the work on standardization has only started recently and more time is
needed to define clearly the origins and characteristics of these materials. In the meantime such unfamiliar
materials when placed on the market as aggregates should comply fully with this standard and national
regulations for dangerous substances (see annex ZA) depending upon their intended use. Additional
characteristics and requirements can be specified on a case by case (...abbreviated)
Dieser Teil der Europäischen Norm legt die Eigenschaften und technischen Anforderungen von leichten Gesteinskörnungen und aus diesen hergestellten Füllstoffen für Asphalte und Oberflächenbehandlungen sowie für ungebundene und gebundene Verwendung, ausgenommen Beton, Mörtel und Einpressmörtel fest. Diese Europäische Norm gilt für leichte Gesteinskörnungen mineralischen Ursprungs mit Kornrohdichten von bis zu 2000 kg/m3 (2,00 Mg/m3) oder Schüttdichten von bis zu 1200 kg/m3 (1,20 Mg/m3) und schließt ein: a) natürliche Gesteinskörnungen; b) aus natürlichen Rohstoffen und/oder aus industriellen Nebenprodukten hergestellte Gesteinskörnungen; c) industrielle Nebenprodukte (ausgenommen Veraschungsrückstände); d) Gesteinskörnungen aus Recyclingmaterial. Es sind Angaben zur Bewertung der Konformität der Produkte mit dieser Norm enthalten.
