BS EN 13285:2018 PDF Download

BS EN 13285:2018 is a European standard that outlines the specifications for unbound mixtures utilized in the construction and maintenance of roads, airfields, and other trafficked areas. It applies specifically to mixtures composed of natural, manufactured, and recycled aggregates with upper sieve sizes ranging from 5.6 mm to 90 mm. It is important to note that mixtures with upper sieve sizes exceeding 90 mm are not covered by this standard, but may be specified at the place of use.

This standard does not specify the water content of the mixture or the density of the installed layer, as these parameters pertain to the construction control and fall outside the scope of the standard. Instead, it focuses on the requirements and specifications for the aggregates used, with reference to EN 13242. It is worth mentioning that the standard does not encompass the use of aggregates as soil.
