Standard EN SampleBituminous Mixtures Material Specifications Type Testing
Also Known As:
BS EN 13108-20:2016 is a standard that defines the material specifications and type testing procedures for bituminous mixtures. It is specifically designed for use in assessing and verifying the constancy of performance of these mixtures in roads, airfields, and other trafficked areas.
The standard provides a systematic approach to ensure that the qualities and characteristics of bituminous mixtures can be consistently maintained throughout their lifespan. This is achieved through a series of type tests, which involve examining and evaluating various properties of the mixtures, such as resistance to moisture, temperature, and mechanical stress.
By adhering to this standard, manufacturers and suppliers of bituminous mixtures can demonstrate their compliance with specific requirements and ensure that their products consistently meet the necessary performance criteria. The type testing procedure outlined in BS EN 13108-20:2016 enables effective quality control and provides assurance to consumers and regulatory bodies regarding the durability and performance of bituminous mixtures in various traffic conditions.
