Earthworks - Chemical tests - Part 1: Determination of loss on ignition
This document describes a method for the determination of the loss on ignition (wLOI) of fine, intermediate, composite and coarse soils, organic soils and anthropogenic materials (according to EN 16907-2) after ignition under air at 550°C.
The loss of mass suffered by these materials at 550 °C is usually due to the release of volatile compounds, water (absorbed, crystalized or structural) and gases from decomposition of organic matter and inorganic substances such as sulfur, sulphides or hydroxides (e.g. H2O, CO2, SO2).
A method is given in Annex B in order to estimate the organic matter content (COM) from the value of wLOI for clayed soils.
Erdarbeiten - Chemische Prüfverfahren - Teil 1: Bestimmung des Glühverlusts
Dieses Dokument definiert ein Verfahren zur Bestimmung des Glühverlustes (wLOI) von feinkörnigen, gemischtkörnigen, zusammengesetzten und grobkörnigen Böden, organischen Böden und anthropogenen Materialien (nach EN 16907-2) nach Entzündung an Luft bei 550 °C.
Der Massenverlust, den diese Materialien bei 550 °C aufweisen, ist in der Regel auf die Freisetzung von flüchtigen Verbindungen, Wasser (absorbiert, kristallisiert oder gebunden) und Gasen aus der Zersetzung von organischer Substanz und anorganischen Stoffen wie Schwefel, Sulfiden oder Hydroxiden (z. B. H2O, CO2, SO2) zurückzuführen.
In Anhang B wird ein Verfahren angegeben, um den Gehalt an organischer Substanz (COM) aus dem Wert wLOI für tonige Böden abzuschätzen.
Terrassements - Essais chimiques - Partie 1 : Détermination de la perte au feu
Ce document décrit une méthode pour la détermination de la perte au feu (wLOI) des sols fins, intermédiaires, composites et grossiers, des sols organiques et des matériaux anthropiques (selon la norme EN 16907-2) après calcination sous air à 550°C.
La perte de masse subie par ces matériaux à 550 °C est généralement due à la libération de composés volatils, d'eau (absorbée, cristallisée ou structurelle) et de gaz provenant de la décomposition de la matière organique et de substances inorganiques telles que le soufre, les sulfures ou les hydroxydes (par exemple H20, CO2, SO2).
Une méthode est donnée dans l'annexe B afin d'estimer la teneur en matière organique (COM) à partir de la valeur du wLOI pour les sols argileux.
Zemeljska dela - Kemijski preskusi - 1. del: Določanje deleža žaroizgube
Ta dokument opisuje metodo za določanje žaroizgube (wLOI) finih, srednje finih, kompozitnih in grobih zemljin, organskih zemljin in antropogenih materialov (v skladu s standardom EN 16907-2) po vžigu pri temperaturi zraka 550 °C.
Izguba mase teh materialov pri 550 °C je običajno posledica sprostitve hlapnih spojin, vode (absorbirane, kristalizirane ali strukturne) in plinov pri razgradnji organskih in anorganskih snovi, kot so žveplo, sulfidi ali hidroksidi (npr. H2O, CO2, SO2).
V dodatku B je navedena metoda za ocenjevanje vsebnosti organskih snovi (COM) iz vrednosti žaroizgube za glinaste zemljine.

Introduction
The method described in this document has been developed from EN 15935:2021 which was prepared
by CEN/TC 444 “Environmental characterization of solid matrices”. Adjustments were made to make the
method more suitable for the materials used in earthworks, particularly for the pretreatment of the
sample.
This document specifies a method for the determination of the loss on ignition (w ) of fine, intermediate,
LOI
composite and coarse soils, organic soils and anthropogenic materials (according to EN 16907-2) after
ignition under air at 550°C. A method is given in Annex B in order to estimate the organic matter content
(C ) from the value of w . The organic matter content C is used for the classification of soils with
OM LOI OM
organic matter content C greater than 2 % according EN 16907-2 (Table 4 in EN 16907-2:2018).
OM
Other methods to estimate the organic content is e.g. wet burning with H O or KMnO .
