Overview
EN 933-2:2020 "Tests for geometrical properties of aggregates - Part 2: Determination of particle size distribution - Test sieves, nominal size of apertures" (CEN) defines the nominal aperture sizes and basic requirements for test sieves used in particle size distribution testing of aggregates. The standard covers sieve construction types and the accepted range of aperture sizes used for aggregate grading, supporting reliable and comparable sieving results across laboratories and industry.
Key topics and requirements
- Scope: Applies to test sieves for aggregates using
- perforated metal plate with square holes for nominal aperture sizes from 4 mm up to 125 mm, and
- metal wire cloth with square apertures for sizes below 4 mm down to 0.063 mm.
- Conformance to ISO:
- Sieves ≥ 4 mm: shall conform to ISO 3310-2 (perforated metal plate).
- Sieves < 4 mm: shall conform to ISO 3310-1 (metal wire cloth).
- Nominal sizes: The standard specifies the permitted nominal sizes in a single table (Table 1), adopting the R20 series from ISO 565:1990. Sizes range from 125 mm down to 0.063 mm, with a set of principal sizes highlighted for routine use.
- Accuracy note: Perforated metal plate sieves (≥ 4 mm) have tighter manufacturing tolerances and therefore generally provide better sieving accuracy than comparable metal wire cloth sieves.
- Status: EN 933-2:2020 supersedes EN 933-2:1995 and was approved by CEN in May 2020.
Applications and users
- Laboratories performing particle size distribution (grading) tests on aggregates for quality control, acceptance testing, or certification.
- Aggregate producers and quarries ensuring consistent grading of coarse and fine aggregate products.
- Construction materials testing facilities verifying compliance with mix design and specification requirements for concrete, asphalt and earthworks.
- Manufacturers and suppliers of test sieves who must produce sieves to the specified nominal sizes and conforming ISO requirements.
- Standards bodies and auditors enforcing harmonized test methods across Europe and internationally.
Practical benefits: using EN 933-2:2020 ensures traceable, comparable sieving results, reduces measurement variability, and supports compliance with aggregate grading requirements in construction specifications.
