Mixtures in various forms have been used in road, airfield, port and other pavement construction for decades. BS EN 13286-48 is a European Standard applicable to unbound and hydraulically bound mixtures that covers laboratory testing methods for the determination of the degree of pulverization.
BS EN 13286-48 is the 48th part of the ‘unbound and hydraulically bound mixtures’ multi-series that specifies a test method for the determination of the degree of pulverization of cohesive material after mixing with lime and/or hydraulic binder.
BS EN 13286-48 on unbound and hydraulically bound mixtures pulverization test is useful for:
A mixture of aggregate, water, and hydraulic binder is one of the most commonly used materials in pavement sub-base layers. The test method described in BS EN 13286-48 helps you to assess the particle size of mixture components. More importantly, the test discussed in BS EN 13286-48 works as an operation for developing new materials.
BS EN 13286-48 guidelines have the potential to equip you with high-performance materials, enabling more efficient designs for the construction of roads, highways, and different types of pavements. Using the tests methods described in BS EN 13286-48 helps to improve the service life of your construction, minimize costs, and prevent accidents.
