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…
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.
Maintenance Techniques to Reduce Social and Environmental Impacts
Selection of maintenance techniques is always a balance between the administering authority costs and social and environmental costs and outcomes. This project provides practical information and a methodology (including a worked example) for…
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…
Modelling, Measuring and Mitigating Road Traffic Noise
This Report examines the role of noise impact assessment in the management of road traffic noise. Part 1 provides an overview of noise impact assessment including issues such as the existing noise environment, route selection and route changes,…
