Austroads Test Methods and Specifications
This document provides a hyperlinked list of the Austroads Test Methods and Specifications.
Extractions of Bituminous Binder from Asphalt
This method has been developed for extracting bituminous binders from bituminous mixtures i.e. asphalt field samples, loose plant mix or reclaimed asphalt pavement.
Characterisation of the Viscosity of Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement (RAP) Binder Using the Dynamic Shear Rheometer (DSR)
The test method sets out the procedure for the determination of viscosity of binders recovered from RAP source materials, as well as of virgin binders and rejuvenators.
Supply of Polymer Modified Binders
Austroads Technical Specification ATS 3110 sets out the requirements for the supply of polymer modified binders (PMBs) and crumb rubber modified binders for use in both sprayed sealing and asphalt applications. The technical specification can also…
Webinar: Austroads Rejuvenator Evaluation Protocol for Increasing Asphalt Recycling
The use of reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) in new asphalt mixes is a common practice in Australia and New Zealand due to its many benefits. RAP contents are typically about 10&ndash
Development of the Austroads Rejuvenator Evaluation Protocol
This report describes research into the development of a draft Austroads evaluation protocol for rejuvenators. Rejuvenators are typically used to produce asphalt mixes containing high levels of reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP). The report includes a…
Can plastic roads be part of a sustainable transport future?
This seminar was held on 2 September 2022 at RMIT University in Melbourne. It was sponsored by Austroads and attracted an audience of more than 400 people across the world. The 4-hour recording considers different perspectives of incorporating waste…
Handling Viscosity of Polymer Modified Binders (Brookfield Thermosel)
This test method sets out the procedure for determining the apparent viscosity of PMBs at temperatures above 100°C, using the Brookfield Thermosel rotational viscometer.
Method of Sampling Polymer Modified Binders, Polymers and Crumb Rubber
This test method applies to polymer modified binders, polymers and crumb rubber.Materials are sampled according to this protocol to ensure that correct sampling procedures are followed and that test results provide the required information on…
