Methods of Testing Bitumen and Related Roadmaking Products: Determination of Sieve Residue
Also Known As:
AS 2341.26:2020 standard provides a systematic approach to assess the presence of coarse binder particles in bituminous emulsions. The standard presents a method for quantifying the mass of particles that are retained on a designated sieve.
This standard is crucial in evaluating the quality and performance of bituminous emulsions used in road construction and maintenance. By determining the sieve residue, it becomes possible to assess the amount of coarse binder particles present in the emulsion. This information is essential in making decisions regarding the suitability of the emulsion for roadmaking purposes and ensuring the required level of performance.
Following the methodology outlined in AS 2341.26:2020 facilitates consistency and accuracy in testing and allows for reliable comparisons of different bituminous emulsions. It provides a standardized framework that enables laboratories and industry professionals to carry out consistent and reliable evaluations of sieve residue.
