The class of compressive strength shall be selected from Table 5 in combination with the selected method of

specimen manufacture.
NOTE The permitted methods of specimen manufacture realise different specimen shapes and density, and thus for
the same mixture, different strengths. Hence it is important, on the basis of experience and utilisation, not to separate
strength from the method of specimen manufacture.
The age of classification and curing conditions shall be specified in accordance with practice at the place of
use.
For characterisation or mixture design testing in the laboratory, compressive strength shall be the average
result from at least three specimens. lf one value varies by more than 20 % of the average, it shall be
discarded and.R" taken as the average of the other values.

Annex A
(normative)
The compacity before setting of a cement bound granular mixture 2 shall be defined as the value of the ratio:
I 6,3120 50 yA 2,69
22
EN 14227-1:2013 (E)
Annex B
(informative)
B.1 General
This annex describes the recommendations for a production control system for manufacturers of hydraulically
treated mixtures (e.9. aggregates and soils treated by lime, hydraulic binders or hydraulic combinations).
The objective of production control is to give assurance that the mixture conforms to the specification. @
U'
B.2 Quality manual
N
o
The manufacturer should establish and maintain his policy and procedures for production control in a quality N)
manual that should include: Ju
E
the manufacturer's organisational structure relating to quality; z
o
control of constituents and mixtures; o
o
\t
O)
process control, calibration and maintenance; o
o
o
(rl
requirements for the handling and storage of the mixture when appropriate; (,
N)
inspection, calibration and control of the measuring equipment in the process, and laboratory testing
o
P
equipment for the mixture; o
o
proced ures for ha ndlin g non-conform ing m ixture. 3
J
f
B.3 Organisation s5
5
B.3.1 Responsibility and authority o.
The responsibility, authority and inter-relation of all personnel who manage, perform and verify work affecting
o
='
@
quality should be defined in the quality manual, particularly personnel who have authority to identify, record b
(o
and rectify any mixture quality problems. iJ
o
N)
B.3.2 Management representative N
The manufacturer should appoint a person with appropriate authority, knowledge and experience of
production control to ensure that the requirements of the quality manual are implemented and maintained.
23
EN 14227-1:2013 (E)
8.3.6 Records
The production control system should contain adequately documented procedures and instructions.
The intended frequencies of tests and inspections by the manufacturer should be documented and the results @
of tests and inspections recorded. U)
N)
Sampling location, date and time, as well as details of the mixture or constituents tested, should be recorded
together with any other relevant information.
o
N)
!s
Where the constituent or mixture examined does not satisfy the requirements of the appropriate specification U
and this standard, records should be kept of corrective actions taken to ensure the quality of the mixture is z
maintained. o
J
o
o
Records should be kept in such a way that they are retrievable and be retained for the period stated in the \l
quality manual, usually a minimum of 3 years or longer if legally required. O)
o
o
B.3.7 Training o
(,
(rl
N)
The manufacturer should establish and maintain procedures for the training of all personnel involved in o
activities affecting quality. Personnel performing specific assigned tasks should be suitably qualified on the -o
basis of appropriate education, training or experience, as required. Training records should be kept.
o
o
d) procedures to ensure that production equipment, including mixture storage facilities, maintain the
composition, homogeneity, and consistency of the mixture;
e) procedures for:
24
EN 14227-1:2013 (E)
0 instructions so that the mixture is identifiable up to the point of delivery as regards source and type
Where applicable, the composition of regularly produced mixtures will be included in a catalogue of mixtures
compositions and considered as the mixture base line or target composition.
The compositions should be re-established in case of significant change in constituents and should be
a
reviewed periodically to ensure the mixture conforms to requirements taking into account any change in
properties of constituents.
B.4.3 Constituents o
@
Documentation should detail the source and type of each constituent of the mixture for use at the production
N
location. o
N
J$
Adequate supplies of constituent should be available to ensure that the planned rates of production and
delivery can be maintained. o
z
The specifications for incoming constituents should be established and communicated to suppliers by means
o
of written orders. o
o
{o)
The control procedures should check that constituents are capable of providing the required quality. o
o
O
(rl
Constituents should be transported and stored in such a manner as to avoid intermingling, contamination or (rl
deterioration that may affect the quality of the product. N
o
-o
B.4.4 Process control o
o
The quality manualshould include: 3
r
a description of equipment and installation; ss
a description of the flow of constituents and the processes canied out on them. lf appropriate this should s
incorporate a flow diagram;
g
J
a schedule for monitoring the performance of the process (manual or automatic systems), including a
o
@
record of equipment performance against the stated tolerances. b
so
N'
8.4.5 lnspection, calibration and control of process equipment o
N
N
The quality manual should identify items of measuring devices that require calibration and the frequency of
such calibration.
Calibration procedures should be provided, including the permitted tolerances for the devices to remain in
service. The quality manual should state the required accuracy of all calibrations.
The equipment should be adequately maintained to ensure that it continues to be capable of producing
mixture to the required specifications and tolerances.
25
EN 14227-1:2013 (E)
At the point of delivery, the mixture should be identifiable and traceable with regard to its production data. The
manufacturer should maintain records of relevant data of production, which can be referenced from
information when appropriate on the delivery ticket.
lf appropriate, the manufacturer's quality manual should describe the characteristics of any mixture storage
system and define its mode of operation. The manufacturer should ensure through checks, inspections and
records that such systems are used correctly and that mixtures maintain their suitability for use.
ln the case of plants with a validated and accepted automated surveillance and data collection system
giving computerised composition for every truck or every batch, one sample should be taken every
2 000 t or 1 000 m3 or one per day for lesser quantities.
ln the case of other types of plants or production, one sample should be taken every 300 t or 150 m3, with
a minimum of 1 sample per day.
26
EN'14227-1:2013 (E)
Alternatively and independent of the type of mixing plant, the frequency of sampling can be on a time
related rather than a quantity related basis, such as a minimum of 1 sample per week or 1 sample per
day depending on the characteristic being measured.
ln the case of occasional production of a standard mixture, the production should be assessed cumulatively
with previous production with the same or similar criteria. The frequency of sampling can be adjusted on a
contract-by-contract basis according to the overall quantity of production required.
8.7 Non-conformity
B.7.1 General
Non-conformity can arise at the following stages:
constituent delivery;
constituent in storage;
27
EN 14227-1:2013 (E)
mixture production;
ln the event that a non-conforming constituent, process or mixture is identified, investigations should be
initiated to determine the reasons for non-conformity and effective corrective action should be implemented to
prevent recurrence in accordance with procedures documented in the quality manual.
