This European Standard describes the reference method, used for type testing and in case of dispute, for determination of the flakiness index of aggregates. For other purposes, in particular production control, other methods may be used, provided that an appropriate working relationship with the reference method has been established.
This European Standard applies to natural, manufactured or recycled aggregates.
The test procedure specified in this part of this European Standard is not applicable to particle sizes less than 4 mm or greater than 100 mm.
