The operation of smart motorways is a subset of broader transport operations and relies on complex organisational arrangements with highly specialised capabilities to manage a growing number of assets, follow a wide range of operational scenarios,…

Best Practice in Smart Motorways Operations provides transport agencies with a set of guidelines and supporting information for motorway integration, operations and management capabilities. The document serves to promote best practice, centred…

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.

This test method sets out the procedure for the determination of mass change or loss on heating of a polymer modified binder (PMB) due to the effect of heat and air during rolling thin film oven (RTFO) treatment.

This method complements AS/NZS 2341.21 by setting out the handling procedures for the testing of modified binders.

This test method sets out the procedure for the determination of torsional recovery of polymer modified binders (PMBs) under specific conditions using a simple torsional recovery test apparatus. PMBs are thought to provide benefits due to their…

This report formulates content for the Austroads Guides on managed motorways. The majority of the content has been adopted from the VicRoads Managed Freeways: Freeway Ramp Signals Handbook (2010 and updated version 2013) and the VicRoads Managed…
