Linked Work Tips Index
This linked index of the Pavement Work Tips is designed to help practitioners easily access the more than 50 publications in the Work Tips collection.
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.
Modified Surface Texture Depth (Pestle Method)
This method describes the procedure for the determination of the surface texture depth of road surfaces, by the sand patch technique. This method is only applicable to surface texture depths greater than 0.3 mm. This method was developed from BS…
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.
Sprayed Sealing – Calibration of Bitumen Sprayers
This Pavement Work Tip provides information on the essential elements of the calibration process for bitumen sprayers.
Sprayed Sealing – Selecting Aggregate Size
This Pavement Work Tip details the general principles affecting aggregate size selection and provides recommended aggregate sizes for a range of sealing treatments.
Sprayed Seals – Pre-spraying to Correct Surface Texture
This Pavement Work Tip outlines the procedure to allow for surface texture variations by pre-spraying of additional binder.
Sprayed Sealing – Minimising Handwork
This Pavement Work Tip provides instructions on how to minimise sprayed sealing handwork and gives some suggestions for maximising the use of a sprayer when sealing tapers and roundabouts.
Sprayed Seals – Aggregate Spread Rates and Spreader Calibration
This Pavement Work Tip describes the requirements for the selection of an appropriate design aggregate spread rate and the calibration of aggregate spreading equipment for uniformity and consistency of output.
