This European Standard specifies methods for the determination of the flow coefficient of coarse and fine aggregates. It applies to coarse aggregate of sizes between 4 mm and 20 mm and to fine aggregate of size up to 4 mm.
NOTE 1 For coarse aggregates between 4 mm and 20 mm, the flow coefficient is linked with the percentage of crushed or broken surfaces of an aggregate and can therefore be used in association with the method specified in EN 933-5. Shape and surface texture characteristics also influence the result.
NOTE 2 Experience of this test has been generally limited to natural aggregates.
