This European Standard specifies a procedure for the determination of the particle size distribution of the aggregates of bituminous mixtures by sieving. The test is applicable to aggregates recovered after binder extraction in accordance with EN 12697-1 or EN 12697-39. The applicability of this European Standard is described in the product standards for bituminous mixtures. NOTE Fibres, solid (non-soluble during extraction) additives and (some) binder modifiers influence the test result.
