Asphalt Binder Drain-off
This test method sets out the procedure for determining the amount of binder drain-off likely to occur in an asphalt mix during storage and transport. The method may be used to determine the amount of binder drain-off at the maximum mixing…
Measurement of Loose Aggregate on Sprayed Seals
This test method sets out the procedure for determining the quantity of loose aggregate on the surface of a sprayed seal.
Seal Behaviour
This method describes the procedure for the recovery of sprayed seal samples from the pavement without disturbing the sealing aggregate orientation. The method stipulates how the void content of the sample is determined.
Penetration of Road Based by Bituminous Primers or Primer Binders
This test method sets out the procedure for assessing the degree of absorption of a primer or primerbinder by a given road gravel in bituminous surfacing work.
Softening Point of Polymer Modified Binders
This test method sets out the procedure for determination of the softening point of polymer modified binders.
Morphology of Crumb Rubber - Bulk Density Test
This method describes a procedure for determining the bulk density of crumb rubber in the size range 600 to 300 µm.
Ease of Remixing of Polymer Modified Binders
This method describes a procedure for determining whether a PMB can be easily returned to a homogeneous state after subjecting a sample of the PMB to an elevated temperature for a prolonged period. This ease of remixing is assessed by determining…
Fatigue Life of Compacted Bituminous Mixes Subject to Repeated Flexural Bending
This test method details the requirements for determining the flexural stiffness, phase angle, dissipated energy per cycle, cycles to failure and cumulative dissipated energy at failure of asphalt subjected to repeated flexure by cyclical four-point…
