TS 4312

TS 4312 is the Turkish edition of a terminology standard for test sieves and test sieving. In practical terms, test sieving is a core particle-size separation method, and the value of this standard is in defining the terms used to describe that subject consistently rather than prescribing a measurement procedure itself.

What the terminology covers

According to the supplied scope, the standard covers terms and definitions relating to materials to be sieved, test sieves, test sieving, and the presentation of the results of these analyses. Terminology standards do not describe laboratory practice step by step; instead, they establish a common language so that users, laboratories, and specification writers understand the same concepts in the same way.

In general technical use, test sieves are sieving devices with specified apertures used to separate granular material by particle size. Test sieving is widely applied to aggregates, minerals, powders, and other particulate materials to assess size distribution. Clear terminology matters because it supports unambiguous reporting, comparison of results, and consistent interpretation across different sieve series and test contexts.

• The standard organizes vocabulary for the sieving-related subject area.
• It addresses terms for test sieves, test sieving, and how results are represented.
• The record references TS 1226 ISO 3310-2:1996 and TS 1227 ISO 3310-1:1996.
• This listing describes a withdrawn standard.
