Bituminous mixtures - Test methods for hot mix asphalt - Part 33: Specimen prepared by roller compactor

Scope

This European Standard specifies the methods for compacting parallelepipedal specimens (slabs) of bituminous mixtures, to be used directly for subsequent testing, or from which test specimens are cut.
For a given mass of bituminous mixture, the specimens are prepared either under controlled compaction energy, or until a specified volume and therefore void content is obtained.
This European Standard describes the following methods of compaction:
- pneumatic tyre method,
- steel roller method,
- sliding plates method.
This European Standard is applicable to bituminous mixtures manufactured in the laboratory or in a mixing plant.
