16、cording to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lith

EN 14955:2005 (E) 4 1 Scope This European Standard specifies a method for determining the composition and particle shape of unbound minerals for outdoor sports surfaces
18、. 2 Principle The grains of unbound minerals are separated manually according to shape. The composition of each different shape is expressed as a percentage by mass. Each shape is described in terms of texture, structure and colour using the classification chart (see Figures 1 and 2). 3 Apparatus 3.
19、1 Classification chart. 3.2 Trowel or cutting implement. 3.3 Pointed separator. 3.4 Analytical balance or scale. 3.5 Smooth surface, ideally glass or an illuminated frame. 3.6 Oven, capable of being maintained at (105 5) C. 3.7 Optical microscope, having a minimum enlargement power of 20 x. 4 Sampli
20、ng 4.1 From a stock pile If taking a sample from a stock pile, take the sample as near to the middle of the pile as possible. 4.2 From a bag If taking a sample from a bag, turn the bag upside down and shake it to intermix the particles. Having opened the bag, take the sample from as near to the cent
21、re of the bag as possible. 4.3 From a field location If taking a sample in the field, cut vertically through the strata concerned taking particles from the top, middle and bottom of the profile. EN 14955:2005 (E) 5 5 Conditioning Dry the sample in an oven at a temperature of (105 5) C for 24 h. Afte
22、r allowing the sample to cool down to room temperature, mix the sample so that all the particles are thoroughly integrated. 6 Procedure 6.1 For samples consisting of particles of greatest dimension 1 mm, follow the procedure described in 6.2. For samples consisting of particles of greatest dimension
23、 1 mm, follow the procedure described in 6.3. 6.2 Take 10 g of a representative specimen removed from the centre of the sample. Lay the specimen out on a smooth surface and separate all the particles into different piles according to their particle shape in accordance with Figure 1. If the specimen
24、contains particles of greatest dimension 3 mm, but 6 mm, increase the mass of the specimen to 15 g. Observe and record the texture, structure and colour for the pile of each shape of particle. Weigh each of the piles and calculate the mass composition for each particle shape as a percentage of the w

Table 1 Attribute classification Attribute Description Shape Round, flat, irregular, angular Texture Rough, polishedStructure Open, denseColour 6.3 Reduce the specimen to a volume small enough to be put under a microscope and place it onto a glass slide under the microscope. Identify the shape
26、, texture and structure by observations through the microscope and record the observations. Repeat the observations on five more samples and report the modal shape, texture and structure over all six samples. 7 Expression of results Express the results as the shape, texture, structure and colour of
27、the specimens (see Table 1). For specimens taken from samples consisting of particles of greatest dimension 1 mm or larger, report also the percentage composition by mass.
