(Main)Lightweight aggregates
Lightweight aggregates
This European Standard specifies the properties of Lightweight Aggregates (LWA) and fillers derived thereof obtained by processing natural or manufactured materials and mixtures of these aggregates for concrete, mortar and grout, bituminous mixtures and surface treatments and for unbound and hydraulically bound applications in construction works.
This European Standard covers LWA of mineral origin having particle densities not exceeding 2000 kg/m3 (2,000 Mg/m3) or loose bulk densities not exceeding 1200 kg/m3 (1,200 Mg/m3) including:
a) natural LWA;
b) LWA manufactured from natural materials;
c) LWA manufactured from by-products of industrial processes or from recycled source materials;
d) LWA as by-products of industrial processes.
A list of source materials and specific materials, which are within the scope of this standard, is given in Annex A (normative).
NOTE Recycled aggregates from construction and demolition waste and Municipal Solid Waste Incinerator Bottom Ash (MIBA) are covered by standards EN 12620, EN 13043, EN 13139 and EN 13242.
Some LWA for specific applications are covered in separate European product standards (Annex B, normative).
The requirements specified in this standard may not be equally relevant to all types of LWA. For particular applications, the requirements and tolerances can be adapted for the end use.
Leichte Gesteinskörnungen
Diese Europäische Norm legt die Eigenschaften von leichten Gesteinskörnungen (LWA, en: lightweight aggregates) und daraus hergestellten Füllern fest, die durch Aufbereitung natürlicher oder hergestellter Materialien und Mischungen dieser Gesteinskörnungen gewonnen und für Beton, Mörtel und Einpressmörtel, bituminöse Gemische und Oberflächenbehandlungen sowie für ungebundene und hydraulisch gebundene Anwendungen in Bauwerken verwendet werden.
Diese Europäische Norm gilt für leichte Gesteinskörnungen mineralischen Ursprungs mit Rohdichten von nicht mehr als 2 000 kg/m3 (2,000 Mg/m3) oder Schüttdichten von nicht mehr als 1 200 kg/m3 (1,200 Mg/m3) und schließt ein:
a) natürliche LWA;
b) aus natürlichen Rohstoffen hergestellte leichte Gesteinskörnungen;
c) aus industriellen Nebenprodukten oder Recycling Ausgangsmaterialien hergestellte leichte Gesteinskörnungen;
d) leichte Gesteinskörnungen als Nebenprodukte von industriellen Prozessen.
Eine Auflistung von Ausgangsstoffen und bestimmten Materialien, die in den Anwendungsbereich dieser Norm fallen, ist dem Anhang A (normativ) zu entnehmen.
ANMERKUNG Recycelte Gesteinskörnungen aus Bauschutt und Abbruchabfällen sowie Hausmüllverbrennungsasche (HMV Asche) sind durch EN 12620, EN 13043, EN 13139 und EN 13242 abgedeckt.
Einige LWA für besondere Anwendungen werden in gesonderten Europäischen Produktnormen behandelt (Anhang B, normativ).
Die in dieser Europäischen Norm festgelegten Anforderungen sind unter Umständen nicht gleichermaßen auf jede Art von leichten Gesteinskörnungen anwendbar. Für besondere Anwendungen können die Anforderungen und Grenzabmaße dem jeweiligen endgültigen Verwendungszweck angepasst werden.
Granulats légers
La présente Norme européenne spécifie les exigences techniques relatives aux granulats légers et aux fillers qui en sont issus, élaborés à partir de matériaux naturels ou artificiels et des mélanges de ces granulats qui sont utilisés dans la construction dans la fabrication de béton, de mortier ou de coulis, dans des mélanges hydrocarbonés et des enduits superficiels ainsi que de couches traitées aux liants hydrauliques ou non traitées.
La présente Norme européenne traite des granulats légers d’origine minérale ayant une masse volumique réelle maximale de 2000 kg/m3 (2,000 Mg/m3) ou une masse volumique en vrac maximale de 1200 kg/m3 (1,200 Mg/m3), y compris :
a) les granulats naturels légers ;
b) les granulats artificiels légers issus de matériaux naturels ;
c) les granulats artificiels légers issus de résidus de processus industriels ou de matériaux recyclés ;
d) les granulats légers comme résidus de processus industriels.
Une liste des principaux matériaux qui ont été pris en compte et qui relèvent du domaine d’application de la présente norme figure à l’Annexe A (normative).
NOTE Les normes EN 12620, EN 13043, EN 13139 et EN 13242 spécifient les granulats recyclés issus des débris de construction, de démolition et des Mâchefers d’Incinération des Déchets Non-Dangereux (MIDND).
Des granulats légers destinés à des applications particulières sont spécifiés dans des Normes de produits européennes distinctes (Annexe B, normative).
Les exigences de la présente norme peuvent ne pas s’appliquer uniformément à tous les types de granulats légers. Les exigences et tolérances peuvent être adaptées à l’usage final dans l’application particulière considérée.
Lahki agregati
Ta evropski standard določa lastnosti lahkih agregatov in iz njih proizvedenih polnil s predelavo naravnih ali umetnih materialov ter mešanice teh agregatov za beton, malto in injekcijsko maso, bitumenske zmesi, površinske prevleke ter za uporabo v nevezanih in hidravlično vezanih mešanicah pri gradbenih objektih.
Ta evropski standard zajema lahke agregate mineralnega izvora s prostorninsko maso zrn, ki ne presega 2000 kg/m3 (2,000 Mg/m3) ali prostorninsko maso v nasutem stanju, ki ne presega 1200 kg/m3 (1,200 Mg/m3), vključno z naslednjimi:
a) naravni lahki agregati;
b) lahki agregati, proizvedeni iz naravnih materialov;
c) lahki agregati, proizvedeni iz stranskih proizvodov industrijskih procesov ali iz recikliranih izvornih materialov;
d) lahki agregati kot stranski proizvodi industrijskih procesov.
Seznam izvornih materialov in specifičnih materialov, ki spadajo na področje uporabe tega standarda, je naveden v dodatku A (normativni).
OPOMBA: Reciklirani agregati iz gradbenih odpadkov in odpadkov pri rušenju objektov ter pepel iz sežigalnic komunalnih odpadkov (MIBA) so zajeti v standardih EN 12620, EN 13043, EN 13139 in EN 13242.
Nekateri lahki agregati za specifične uporabe so zajeti v ločenih evropskih standardih za proizvode (dodatek B, normativni).
Zahteve iz tega standarda morda niso enako relevantne za vse tipe lahkih agregatov. Za posebne uporabe se lahko zahteve in tolerance prilagodijo za končno uporabo.
