European foreword
This document (prEN 933-11:2021) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 154
“Aggregates”, the secretariat of which is held by BSI.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document will supersede EN 933-11:2009.
In comparison with the previous edition, the following technical modifications have been made:
a) The particle size fraction used for the reference test is changed from 4/63 mm to 8/63 mm.
b) Preparation of the test portion does not include sampling or reference to EN 932-1. The
guidance table for minimum test portion mass has been revised. (Clause 6)
c) Procedure has been divided into 7.1 General, 7.2 Determination of the content of floating
particles and 7.3 Visual sorting of non-floating particles. The guidance table with minimum
masses for 1 000 particles has been revised. The table listing non-floating constituents has
been extended. The flow chart describing the test procedure has been revised.
d) The formulae for calculation of the proportion of constituents have been revised (Clause 8).
e) The test data sheet in Annex B has been updated according to the revised procedure and
formulae.
f) Three new informative annexes have been added: Annex C Guidance for testing of a 4/63 mm
fraction, Annex D Classification test without the immersing procedure and Annex E Guidance
on separate floating particles into organic and inorganic.
In addition, the whole document has been updated and clarified.
This document forms part of a series of tests for geometrical properties of aggregates. Test

1 Scope
This document specifies the reference method for the examination of coarse recycled aggregates
for the purpose of identifying and estimating the relative proportions of constituent materials.
The reference method is used for type testing and in case of dispute. Other methods can be used
for other purposes, such as factory production control, provided that an appropriate working
relationship with the reference method has been established.
This method does not apply to lightweight aggregates covered by the EN 13055 series.
Annex A specifies an additive to the test procedure in Clause 7. It is suitable for test portions with
low proportions of floating particles and is aimed at determining the proportion of floating
particles with a higher precision level.
Annex B provides an example of a test data sheet.
Annex C specifies a procedure for testing a 4/63 mm fraction.
Annex D specifies a method where the content of floating particles is estimated on a visual basis,
after the visual sorting, without the immersing procedure in 7.2.
Annex E describes an additive to the test procedure in order to separate floating particles into
organic and inorganic.
Annexes A, B, C, D and E are informative.
2 Normative references

constitutes requirements of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies.

3.4
constant mass
mass determined by successive weighings during drying performed at least 1 h apart and not
differing by more than 0,1 %
Note 1 to entry: In many cases, constant mass can be achieved after a test portion has been dried for a
pre-determined period in a specified oven at (110 ± 5) °C. Test laboratories can determine the time
required to achieve constant mass for specific types and sizes of sample dependent upon the drying
capacity of the oven used.
3.5
floating particles
particles that float in water
4 Principle
The test consists of sorting particles from a test portion of coarse recycled aggregate into
constituents. The sorting is performed in two steps: First, identification of the floating particles,
then, visual sorting of the non-floating particles into constituents, based on their components.
The proportion of each constituent in the test portion is then determined and expressed as a
percentage by mass, except for the proportion of floating particles which is expressed as a volume
by mass.
5 Apparatus
Unless otherwise stated, all apparatus shall conform to the general requirements of EN 932-5.
5.1 Test sieves, 63 mm and 8 mm, conforming to EN 933-2.
5.2 Tightly fitting pan and lid, for the sieves.
5.3 Ventilated oven, thermostatically controlled to maintain a temperature of (40 ± 5) °C or
(110 ± 5) °C.
5.4 Balance or scale, of suitable capacity and readable to 0,1 g.
5.5 Trays.
5.6 Brushes.

5.12 Plunger, for the graduated cylinder.
6 Preparation of the test portion
The test shall be carried out on aggregate passing the 63 mm sieve and retained on the 8 mm
sieve.
NOTE Informative Annex C gives guidance for testing a 4/63 mm fraction.
Reduce samples in accordance with EN 932-2 to produce a test portion of minimum mass
specified in Table 1.

63 50

NOTE Larger test portion masses can be necessary to ensure sufficient precision in
the determination of low proportions of restricted constituents (see Annex A).
Dry the sample to constant mass. In the presence of temperature sensitive constituents, such as
expanded polystyrene or bituminous mixtures, the drying temperature should be (40 ± 5) °C. In
other cases, the sample may be dried at (110 ± 5) °C. Record the drying temperature as T.
Weigh and record the dry mass of the sample as M .
0
Sieve the d/D sample on the test sieves, agitating with sufficient vigour to ensure complete
separation of particles greater than 8 mm.
If overloading occurs, see definition in EN 933-1, the fraction should be divided into smaller
portions and sieved one after the other.
Weigh and record the mass of particles retained on the 63 mm sieve as M , and then discard
>63
them. Weigh and record the mass of particles passing the 8 mm sieve as M<8, and then discard
them.
Record the mass of the obtained 8/63 mm test portion as M .

Separate clay lumps and soil from the test portion and retain in a tray. Weigh and record the mass
of clay and soil as M .
