25、eword This document (EN 12620:2013) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 154 “Aggregates”, the secretariat of which is held by BSI. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by Novem
26、ber 2013, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by February 2015. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN and/or CENELEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such paten
27、t rights. This document supersedes EN 12620:2002+A1:2008. Requirements for other end uses of aggregates are specified in the following European Standards: EN 13043, Aggregates for bituminous mixtures and surface treatments for roads, airfields and other trafficked areas; EN 13055, Lightweight aggreg
28、ates; EN 13139, Aggregates for mortar; 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. Requirements for evaluation of conformity are sp
29、ecified in EN 16236. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organisations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of M

31、rovided by IHS under license with CENNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-EN 12620:2013 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the properties of aggregates and filler aggregates obtained by processing natural, manufactured or recycled materials a
32、nd mixtures of these aggregates for use in concrete in conformity with EN 206-1 and concrete used in roads and other pavements and for use in precast concrete products. It covers aggregates having an oven dried particle density greater than 2,0 Mg/m3(2000 Kg/m3). It also covers recycled aggregate wi
33、th particle densities greater than 1,50 Mg/m3(1 500 kg/m3) with appropriate caveats and recycled fine aggregate with appropriate caveats. 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). Require
34、ments for the evaluation of conformity of the products to this European Standard are given in EN 16236. It incorporates a general requirement that aggregates shall not release any dangerous substances in excess of the maximum permitted levels specified in a relevant European Standard for the materia
35、l or permitted in the national regulations of the member state of destination. 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. Not all of these categories are appropriate for aggregates for use in co
36、ncrete. Categories, notes, comments etc, which are grey shaded, should not be used in concrete. Aggregates used in construction should comply with all the requirements of the relevant European Standards. These standards include comprehensive and specific requirements for natural aggregates, iron and
37、 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. For materials from some other secondary sources however, work is ongoing and the requirements are incomplete. In the me
38、antime, such materials, when placed on the market as aggregates, should conform fully to this standard but may also be required to conform to specific relevant additional requirements at the place of use. Additional characteristics and requirements may be specified on a case by case basis depending
39、upon experience of use of the product, and defined in specific contractual documents. NOTE Requirements for lightweight aggregates are specified in prEN 13055. Requirements for the declaration of the potential of aggregates to release regulated dangerous substances are currently under development. U
40、ntil such time as these are finalised, attention should be paid to requirements at the place of use. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.
