Over the last decade there has been a trend by a number of governments to invest more heavily in transport infrastructure and systems, and to accelerate programs of work. This has been a response to various ‘burning platforms’ including transport…

This document provides a hyperlinked list of the Austroads Test Methods and Specifications.

This method has been developed for extracting bituminous binders from bituminous mixtures i.e. asphalt field samples, loose plant mix or reclaimed asphalt pavement.

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.

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.

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…

This test method sets out the procedure for the determination of the flash point of polymer modified binders (PMBs). This test method is applicable to PMBs used in the construction and maintenance of pavements (as specified in ATS 3110).

This test method is applicable to all binders that do not have a viscous response at 70°C and at long loading times when confined to film thicknesses in the range 0.1 to 1mm. It is applicable to all modified binders.
