ASTM D994/D994M-11 (R2022) PDF Download

The ASTM D994/D994M-11 (R2022) standard is titled "Standard Specification for Preformed Expansion Joint Filler for Concrete (Bituminous Type)". This standard outlines the requirements for bituminous preformed expansion joint filler used in concrete construction. The expansion joint filler consists of a bituminous mastic composition that is encased between two layers of bituminous impregnated felt or glass-fiber felt.

The mastic composition is made up of mineral fillers and reinforcing fibers, and it may also include thin strips of reinforcing sheet material. The standard specifies various test methods to determine the properties of the expansion joint filler, including distortion at 52°C, brittleness, water absorption, and compression.

It is important to note that this specification references other ASTM specifications, namely ASTM D1751 and ASTM D1752. These additional specifications provide further guidelines and requirements for bituminous materials used in construction.
