AS/NZS 2341.26:2002 PDF Download

AS/NZS 2341.26:2002 is a standard that focuses on testing bitumen and related roadmaking products specifically for determining the sieve residue. The standard provides a method for determining the amount of bituminous emulsion residue that is retained on a specified sieve.

The purpose of this standard is to establish a consistent and reliable testing procedure that can be used to evaluate the quality and performance of bitumen and related roadmaking products. By determining the sieve residue, it becomes possible to assess the particle size distribution and ensure that the product meets the required specifications for its intended use in road construction.

This standard specifies the equipment and procedures to be followed, including the type of sieve and the required sieving duration. It ensures that the testing process is standardized across different laboratories, enabling consistent and comparable results to be obtained.
