6100-6.3:1984 ii bsi 02-1999 foreword this section of part 6 of this british standard has been prepared under the direction of the basic data and performance criteria for civil engineering and building structures standards committee. this section includes the majority of terms relating to aggregates from bs 2787 “glossary of terms for concrete and reinforced concrete”. the terms “sharp sand” and “soft sand” had been defined in terms of particle size and shape in bs 2787 but these terms have not been included as it is recommended that sands for different uses should be designated by the particular use, e.g. “sand for mortar”, as in bs 1198, bs 1199 and bs 1200 “building sands from natural sources”. the terms in bs 2787 that are superseded by this section are deleted by amendment. a general introduction to and explanation of this glossary is given in part 0 of this standard which itemizes the parts, sections and subsections into which this glossary is divided and provides a general alphabetical index of all the terms in the sections and subsections already published. those using individual sections and subsections of this glossary are urged to consult part 0 when doing so. the other sections of this part are as follows: 6.1 binders 6.2 concrete 6.4 admixtures 6.5 formwork 6.6 products, applications and operations terms are listed alphabetically in the index and are referred to by numbers which are found against the term in the body of the section. there they are arranged in a classified order, each term having an individual number consisting of seven digits in two parts, the first of three digits, the second of four. the first three digits represent the number of the part, section and subsection (in this case, the third digit is 0 as there is no division into subsections). the fourth digit represents the group of terms, the fifth digit represents the subgroup of terms and the last two digits represents the place within the subgroup. terms of more than one word, e.g. “lightweight aggregate”, are written in a direct style, not as “aggregate, lightweight”. the inverted term is included in the index with a reference to the direct term. it has been considered necessary to repeat in this section a term from section 1.0 “general”. the definition of this term is preceded by an asterisk (*). italicized words indicate terms that are defined elsewhere in this section. a british standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. users of british standards are responsible for their correct application. compliance with a british standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. summary of pages this document comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pages i and ii, pages 1 to 4 and a back cover. this standard has been updated (see copyright date) and may have had amendments incorporated. this will be indicated in the amendment table on the inside front cover. licensed copy: sheffieldun
