Bituminous Mixtures - Test Methods - Low Temperature Cracking and Properties by Uniaxial Tension Tests

SKU131526624 Published by British Standards Institution BSI Publication Date2020-03-04 Pages CountPages28

BS EN 12697-46:2020 standard focuses on evaluating the resistance of asphalt mixtures to low temperature cracking. The standard outlines the procedure for conducting uniaxial tension tests, which are used to measure the tensile strength and strain properties of the mixture under low temperature conditions.

The purpose of this standard is to provide a standardized method for determining the performance of bituminous mixtures in terms of their susceptibility to low temperature cracking. By subjecting the asphalt mixture to uniaxial tension tests, the standard helps assess its ability to withstand the tensile stresses imposed by low temperatures without cracking.

The results obtained from these tests can be used to evaluate the material properties of the bituminous mixture, such as tensile strength and strain capacity. This information is crucial for engineers and researchers involved in the design, production, and quality control of asphalt mixtures, as it helps them select appropriate materials and develop specialized mix designs that are resistant to low temperature cracking.
