ASTM D7460-10 PDF Download

The ASTM D7460-10 standard provides procedures for determining the fatigue life of asphalt concrete specimens that have been subjected to repeated flexural bending. The test method specifically applies to 380 mm long, 50 mm thick, and 63 mm wide asphalt concrete beam specimens that are either laboratory or field compacted.

It is important to note that this test method is not intended for material acceptance or rejection for purchasing purposes. The between-laboratory reproducibility of the test method is still being determined and will be available by June 2013.

The standard includes explanatory notes and footnotes, which provide additional information but should not be considered as requirements of the standard itself. This ensures that there is clarity and consistency in the implementation of the test method.
