!! Please note !!

The ammendment of guideline VDI 3866, part 5, in draft state since 07/2015, recommends extended techniques for the preparation and analysis for several groups of building materials. These are ashing, milling or grinding, for example of floor pavements and putties.

Materials pretreated in such a way have to be analyzed as dispersed specimens with heightened analytical expense, similar to the analysis of dust samples (Order-No.: 111).

Types of analyses with even more extended preparation, for example of plasters, trowelled materials and paints by acid treatment, suspension and filtration: please refrer to order numbers 122-124
