Bituminous Mixtures - Test Methods - Determination of the Dimensions of a Bituminous Specimen
Also Known As:
BS EN 12697-29:2020 is a standard that outlines a test method for determining the dimensions of bituminous specimens. This method can be applied to cylindrical, rectangular, or non-rectangular specimens made in the laboratory or obtained from road cores. The dimensions of the specimens are measured, and the test aims to ensure accurate and consistent measurements.
The standard highlights the importance of measuring the dimensions of bituminous specimens accurately as it allows for the evaluation of various properties and performance characteristics of bituminous mixtures. The test method specified in the document involves sawing and trimming the specimens to the desired shape before measuring their dimensions.
By providing a standardized test method for measuring the dimensions of bituminous specimens, this standard helps ensure uniformity and reliability in testing procedures. This, in turn, contributes to accurate assessment and comparison of bituminous mixtures, aiding in quality control and quality assurance efforts in the construction and maintenance of roads and other bituminous pavement applications.
