Safe, efficient and sustainable road transport relies on the accurate classification and identification of vehicles operating on our road networks. Accurate vehicle surveys support the planning and management of road assets and the regulation of…

In this webinar, Chris Koniditsiotis, Lead Implementation Consultant and Patsy Thomas, National Temporary Traffic Management (TTM) Operations Manager provide an update on the implementation and operational commencement of the Austroads National…

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…

Asphalt pavements are a major component of the Australian and New Zealand road networks. Road agencies in Australia and New Zealand have been putting great efforts to produce pavements which perform and are long-lasting. This has led to the…
