This document specifies the nominal sizes of apertures for test sieves used for determination of particle size of aggregates.
It applies to
-   test sieves of perforated metal plate having square holes of size from 4 mm and up to 125 mm;
-   test sieves of metal wire cloth having apertures sizes below 4 mm down to 0,063 mm.

This European Standard describes the reference method, the Los Angeles test, used for type testing and in case of dispute (and an alternative method, the impact test) for determining the resistance to fragmentation of coarse aggregates and aggregates for railway ballast (Annex A). 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.

This Standard describes the reference method used for type testing and in cases of dispute for
determining the polished stone value (PSV) of a coarse aggregate used in road surfacings. 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.
Annex A describes an optional method for the determination of the aggregate abrasion value (AAV).
NOTE The AAV method should...view more

This document specifies a test method to assess the relative resistance of natural stones with an open porosity of greater than 5 %, measured in accordance with EN 1936, to damage caused by the crystallization of salts. The test is not necessary for low porosity stones.

This document specifies requirements and appropriate test methods for slabs and cut-to-size products of agglomerated stone which are made for use as vanity and kitchen tops, or other similar use in furnishing (e.g. splash zone).
NOTE   "Agglomerated stones" are nowadays commercially termed "engineered-stones".
This document does not cover secondary operations including site installation.

This document describes methods for verifying the geometric characteristics of products of natural stone such as rough blocks, rough slabs, finished products for cladding, flooring, stairs and modular tiles and paving units (slabs, setts and kerbs). These methods can be applied in the case of a dispute between two parties, they are not compulsory for production control.
Other measuring equipment can be used as long as their precision can be demonstrated to be equal or better than the ones menti...view more

This document specifies a method for determining the flexural and compressive strength of moulded mortar specimens. This document is applicable to cement/air-lime mortars, air-lime mortars, mortars with hydraulic binders and retarded mortars.

This European Standard specifies sampling and test methods for natural, artificial and recycled aggregates for use as armourstone. This European Standard specifies the reference methods to be used for type testing and in case of dispute where an alternative method has been used. For other purposes, in particular factory production control, other methods may be used provided that an appropriate working relationship with the test method has been established.

This European Standard defines the recommended terminology covering scientific and technical terms, test methods, products, and the classification of Natural Stones. This standard does not cover roofing slate, for roofing slate see EN 12326-1 and EN 12326-2.

This European Standard specifies methods for making technical petrographic descriptions of natural stone, except for roofing slates. For this product, the method for the petrographic examination is defined in EN 12326-2. Although chemical and physical methods of analysis are required for petrographic classification of some stone types, these methods will not be described in this standard.

This European Standard specifies a method to assess possible alterations of natural stones (mainly visible sensitivity to oxidation processes) under the effect of sudden changes in temperature (thermal shock).
