CEN/TC 217/WG 4 is a Working Group within the European Committee for Standardization (CEN). It is named "Unbound mineral surfaces" and is responsible for: The preparation of test methods and procedures for assessing the performance characteristics of unbound mineral sports surfaces. The preparation of specifications for unbound mineral sports surfaces. This committee has published 8 standards.
CEN/TC 217/WG 4 develops CEN standards. The scope of work includes: The preparation of test methods and procedures for assessing the performance characteristics of unbound mineral sports surfaces. The preparation of specifications for unbound mineral sports surfaces. Currently, there are 8 published standards from this working group.
The European Committee for Standardization (CEN) is a public standards organization that brings together the national standardization bodies of 34 European countries. CEN provides a platform for developing European Standards (ENs) and other technical documents in relation to various products, materials, services, and processes, supporting the European Single Market.
A Working Group in CEN is a specialized group responsible for developing standards or technical work within a defined scope. These bodies bring together international experts to create consensus-based standards that support global trade, safety, and interoperability.

This European Standard describes two methods for determining the thickness of granular materials within a structure.
The two methods can be used to provide an indication of the thickness of surfacing material, one using a steel tape, the other using a floating disc and a steel tape. Method 1 is applicable to layers within a profile. Method 2 measures the thickness of a material at the surface.
