Bibliography
This European Standard specifies a routine method for preparing a sample of soil improver or growing media prior to chemical analysis and physical testing. The procedures described herein apply only to those samples that are supplied to a laboratory in the form in which they will be used for their intended purpose.NOTE 1This method is not applicable to liming materials and is not suitable for materials like rockwool and foam slabs.NOTE 2The determination of the laboratory compacted bulk density is given in Annex A.NOTE 3The results of an interlaboratory trial to determine moisture content are given in Annex B.NOTE 4The results of an interlaboratory trial to determine compacted laboratory bulk density are given in Annex B.NOTE 5Attention is drawn to the possible existence of national legislation for the declaration of specific products, which could differ from the general requirements of this European Standard.
