Bituminous Mixtures - Material Specifications - Part 20: Type Testing
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 13108-20 standard outlines the requirements and procedure for testing bituminous mixtures used in roads, airfields, and other trafficked areas. The purpose of this standard is to ensure the consistency and performance of these mixtures.
The standard specifies the Type Testing procedure, which is used for the Assessment and Verification of the Constancy of Performance (AVCP) of the bituminous mixtures. The AVCP is essential for confirming that the mixtures meet the specified requirements and perform as expected in terms of durability, stability, and safety.
By following the guidelines provided in DIN EN 13108-20, manufacturers and suppliers can assess and verify the performance characteristics of their bituminous mixtures. This includes testing the physical and mechanical properties, such as resistance to deformation, water sensitivity, fatigue behavior, and other relevant parameters.
