15.2. Methods and techniques

EN 1097-7 – Tests for mechanical and physical properties of aggregates - Part 7: Determination

of the particle density of filler - Pyknometer method

15.3. Cost of participation

Cost of participation in a single round:

200,00 Euro (net cost)

The Organizer does not cover the cost of sample transport to a Participant.

15.4. Object of tests

Determination of the particle density of filler using the pyknometric method will be performed

on the real aggregate sample. Participants will receive the object of proficiency testing of

500±50 g. To respect confidentiality and prevent the exchange of information between

Participants, each object will be marked with an individual code assigned to each Participant

taking part in the proficiency testing. Only the Organizer will know the code. All samples will be

protected against damage.
