BS EN 13924-1:2015 PDF Download

BS EN 13924-1:2015 is a standard that outlines the specifications and testing methods for special paving grade bitumen and hard paving grade bitumens. The primary purpose of this standard is to provide a framework for the selection and use of bitumen in the construction and maintenance of roads, airfields, and other paved areas.

The standard covers various properties and characteristics that are important for determining the quality and performance of bitumen. This includes factors such as penetration, softening point, ductility, and viscosity. The standard also specifies the relevant test methods that should be used to measure these properties accurately.

By adhering to this standard, stakeholders can ensure that the bitumen being used meets the necessary requirements for the intended application. This helps to ensure the durability, stability, and safety of the paved surfaces, as well as promote consistency and compatibility in the use of bitumen across different projects.
