Assessment of Retroreflectivity of Pavement Markings
This test method defines the procedure for performing field assessment of pavement marking retroreflectivity (night-time visibility) using a low angle retroreflectometer. It also defines a suitable minimum sampling requirement for all longitudinal…
Segregation of Polymer Modified Binders
Polymer modified binders (PMBs) are prepared from mixtures of polymers, additives and bitumen selected to achieve their required properties. Some of these binder systems can segregate leading to variations in measured properties and in some…
Gyratory Compactor Test Method
This document describes the procedures to be followed for compacting asphalt specimens using a gyratory compactor.
Alkali-Silica Reactivity of Aggregate - Concrete Prism Test
This Test Method determines the susceptibility of aggregate to an expansive reaction when mixed with cement in a concrete mix. It measures the change in length of concrete prisms containing the aggregate under investigation. This Test Method is not…
Alkali-Silica Reactivity of Aggregate – Accelerated Mortar Bar Test
This Test Method determines the susceptibility of aggregate to an expansive reaction when mixed with cement in a concrete mix. It measures the change in length of representative mortar bars containing the aggregate under investigation during storage…
Effectiveness of Anti-Graffiti Coatings
This test method determines the performance of anti-graffiti coatings and is based on Main Roads Western Australia Testing Method for Anti-Graffiti Coatings 6706-02-2238. This Test Method assesses the following properties: ease of removing graffiti…
Stripping of Aggregate from Sprayed Seals
This method sets out the procedure for determining the degree of stripping of a single coat sprayed seal with a nominal aggregate size of 10 mm or larger.
Rubber Content of Crumb Rubber Modified Bitumen: Soxhlet Method
This test method sets out the procedure for determining the rubber content of a crumb rubber modified binder using a Soxhlet extraction apparatus. This test method is applicable to crumb rubber modified binders used in constructing and maintaining…
Calibration of Bitumen Sprayers: General Introduction and List of Methods
This test method provides an overview of the 
Specification Framework for Polymer Modified Binders
This specification framework outlines the requirements for PMBs and crumb rubber modified binders for use in both sprayed sealing and asphalt applications.
