Bituminous Mixtures - Test Methods - Part 19: Permeability of Specimen
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 12697-19 standard focuses on determining the permeability of bituminous mixtures. It outlines a method to measure both the vertical and horizontal permeability of cylindrical specimens with interconnecting voids. The standard is applicable to various types of specimens, including those cored out of roads, laboratory-made slabs, or laboratory specimens prepared with a compaction device.
To ensure accuracy, the thickness of the specimen must be at least twice the nominal maximum particle size of the aggregate in the mixture. The standard specifies two options for the nominal diameter of specimens: 100 mm or 150 mm. However, if the nominal maximum particle size of the aggregate exceeds 22 mm, then the nominal diameter must be 150 mm.
