This standard is applicable to different types of mixing plants, such as batch plants, continuous mix plants, or drum mix plants.

The purpose of this standard is to ensure that the mixing plants used for the production of bituminous paving mixtures comply with specific design, construction, and performance requirements. These requirements include factors such as the capacity of the plant, the type and arrangement of mixing units, the control systems, the storage and feeding equipment, as well as the handling and weighting systems.

The specification provides detailed guidelines regarding the design and construction of the mixing plants, including materials used, structural integrity, and safety features. It also outlines requirements for the equipment used in the plant, such as bins, hoppers, conveyors, and scales, to ensure accurate and efficient operations.
