What is BS EN 13282-3 – hydraulic road binders conformity evaluation about?
Hydraulic road binders are chemical stabilizers made by blending supplementary cementitious materials with portland cement clinker. BS EN 13282-3 is the third part of the ‘hydraulic road binders’ multi-series. BS EN 13282-3 specifies the scheme for the assessment and verification of constancy of performance of hydraulic road binders and their conformity with the corresponding product specification standards EN 13282-1 and EN 13282-2.
BS EN 13282-3 provides technical rules for factory production control by the manufacturer, including auto control testing of samples. It also provides rules for actions to be followed in the event of non-conformity.
BS EN 13282-3 should be linked with Annexes ZA of European Standards covering hydraulic road binders, i.e., EN 13282-1 and EN 13282-2, in particular, for the assignments of tasks to the manufacturer and to the production control certification body.
Who is BS EN 13282-3 - hydraulic road binders conformity evaluation for?
BS EN 13282-3 on hydraulic road binders conformity evaluation is useful for:
- Manufacturers of hydraulic road binder
- Manufacturers of concrete and concrete products
- Infrastructure contractors
- Civil engineers
- Product development engineers / innovation teams
- Quality control personnel
BS EN 13282-2 on hydraulic road binder criteria also applies to relevant authorities that commission work for paving roads, railway platforms, airports, ports, and similar work.
Why should you use BS EN 13282-3 - hydraulic road binders conformity evaluation?
Hydraulic road binders are finished products, produced in a factory, and supplied ready for use. BS EN 13282-3 provides factory production control by the manufacturer, general requirements, continuous surveillance, assessment, and evaluation of factory production control. BS EN 13282-3 provides you with guidelines for internal quality control, process control, handling, storage, packaging and delivery, auto control testing of samples, corrective action for hydraulic road binders.
BS EN 13282-3 is useful to demonstrate that the hydraulic road binder's qualities are maintained during transit, reception, storage, packing, and delivery.
BS EN 13282-3 guides you in the assessment and verification of constancy of performance for hydraulic road binder treatment of soils and other materials with binders that can improve its strength for the execution of earthworks during the construction and maintenance of any earth structure. BS EN 13282-3 contributes towards ensuring the longevity of paving solutions so that users have uninterrupted access to them.
