Long-term Ageing Resistance of Bitumen using the Pressure Ageing Vessel (PAV) and the Dynamic Shear Rheometer (DSR)
This test method sets out the procedures for the ageing treatment of bitumen samples under specific conditions using the Pressure Ageing Vessel (PAV), and also the determination of the complex viscosity of treated samples under specific conditions…
Force Ratio of Polymer Modified Binders (ARRB Extensiometer)
This test method sets out the procedures for the determination of the force ratio and toughness of bitumen and PMBs under specific conditions of deformation using the ARRB extensiometer.
Design of Bituminous Binder Blends to a Specified Viscosity Value
This test method provides a guideline for the design of a blend of RAP binder, virgin binder, and/or rejuvenating agent to a target viscosity.
Shear Properties of Polymer Modified Binders (ARRB ELASTOMETER)
This test method sets out the procedures for the determination of consistency, consistency 6%, stiffness and elastic recovery of polymer modified binders (ARRB elastometer), under specific conditions of deformation, using the elastometer developed…
Particle Size and Properties of Crumb Rubber
This method describes a procedure for determining the particle size, shape and contaminants of crumb rubber.
Guide to Pavement Technology Part 10: Subsurface Drainage
Part 10: Subsurface Drainage provides advice on the general requirements for drainage materials, design of pavement drains and construction and maintenance considerations. This Part contains information on the types and uses of subsurface drainage…
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…
Salinity and Rising Water Tables: Risks for Road Assets
This report documents work undertaken in relation to the Austroads Business Systems Project BS.A.N.523 Salinity and Rising Water-Tables - Risks for Network Asset management. The purpose of the project was to identify the potential impact of dryland…
