Assessment of Retroreflectivity of Pavement Markings
This test method defines the procedure for performing field assessment of pavement marking retroreflectivity (night-time visibility) using a low angle retroreflectometer. It also defines a suitable minimum sampling requirement for all longitudinal…
Segregation of Polymer Modified Binders
Polymer modified binders (PMBs) are prepared from mixtures of polymers, additives and bitumen selected to achieve their required properties. Some of these binder systems can segregate leading to variations in measured properties and in some…
Gyratory Compactor Test Method
This document describes the procedures to be followed for compacting asphalt specimens using a gyratory compactor.
Determination of the International Roughness Index (IRI) using ARRB Walking Profiler
The ARRB TR Walking Profiler is pushed over the pavement surface by an operator at a slow walking pace. It is assumed that the reader is familiar with the Walking Profiler Instruction Manual published by ARRB Transport Research and/or has a copy…
Determination of Permanent Deformation and Resilient Modulus Characteristics of Unbound Granular Materials Under Drained Conditions
This method covers the determination of both the permanent deformation and resilient modulus of unbound pavement materials with a maximum particle size not exceeding 19 mm using repeated load triaxial equipment incorporating, static confining…
Validation and Repeatability Checks for a Deflectograph
This test method defines the procedures for collecting reference data and for conducting the validation and repeatability checks for deflectograph equipment.
