What is BS EN 13282-2 – hydraulic road binder criteria about?  
Hydraulic road binders are chemical stabilizers made by blending supplementary cementitious materials with portland cement clinker. BS EN 13282-2 is the second part of the hydraulic road binders multi-series.
BS EN 13282-2 defines and gives the specifications for normal hardening hydraulic road binders, produced in a factory, and supplied ready for the treatment of materials for bases, sub-bases, and capping layers as well as earthworks, in the road, railway, airport, and other types of infrastructures.
BS EN 13282-2 includes the mechanical, physical, and chemical requirements and the classification of these binders based on their compressive strength at 56 days. BS EN 13282-2 also includes the conformity criteria and evaluation procedures to be applied by the manufacturer.
Who is BS EN 13282-2 - hydraulic road binder criteria for? 
BS EN 13282-2 is useful for: 
- Manufacturers of hydraulic road binder
- Manufacturers of concrete and concrete products
- Infrastructure contractors
- Civil engineers
- Product development engineers / innovation teams
- Quality control personnel
BS EN 13282-2 on hydraulic road binder criteria also applies to relevant authorities that commission work for paving roads, railway platforms, airports, ports, and similar work.
Why should you use BS EN 13282-2 - hydraulic road binder criteria?  
Hydraulic road binders are finished products, produced in a factory, and supplied ready for use. They are differentiated according to their strength development into normal hardening hydraulic road binders, specified in BS EN 13282-2, and rapid hardening hydraulic road binders, specified in EN 13282-1. EN 13282-3 defines the conformity evaluation procedure for hydraulic road binders according to BS EN 13282-2.
BS EN 13282-2 provides you with the physical, and chemical requirements, durability requirements, requirements on composition, as well as general requirements for hydraulic road binders. In addition, BS EN 13282-2 provides you with guidelines for fineness, initial setting time, soundness as well as conformity criteria for hydraulic road binders.
Using BS EN 13282-2 guidelines, you are in a position to create and manufacture normal hardening hydraulic road binders that comply with mechanical, physical, and chemical requirements.
Using BS EN 13282-2 guidelines, you would have access to the specifications and conformity criteria for normal hardening hydraulic road binders so that you can manufacture and supply high-quality road binders that contribute to long-last paving solutions for users.
