Paragraph 5 EVALUATION OF RESULTS

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

5.1

Convert the fraction masses to a percentage of the total of the fraction masses (not of the original charge).

  • Calculate the percentage in the receiver (ie < 0.5 mm): A%

  • Calculate the percentage retained on the 0.5 mm sieve: B%

  • Calculate the percentage passing 1.0 mm, ie (A + B)%.

  • The sum of the fraction masses should be within 2% of the initial mass taken.

5.2

At least two separate analyses should be carried out and the individual results for A should not differ by more than 1.0% absolute and for B by more than 1.5% absolute. Repeat the test if this is not the case.
