The procedure for verification of PGAB as described in R 29 shall be followed. 3.9. suppliershall be defined as one who produces the final product or who makes the blend or modification that alters the properties of the PGAB specified in M 320. A supp

11、lier shall be a refinery, a terminal, or an HMA producer. If no modification is made to the PGAB after its initial production at the refinery, the refinery shall be the supplier and must provide the certification. If any modifications are made to the PGAB at the terminal, the terminal shall be the s

12、upplier and must provide certification. If any modification, blending, or blending of PGAB from different sources is made at the HMA plant, the HMA producer shall be the supplier and must provide the certification. Note 1Various refining techniques can produce equivalent PGAB; however, these asphalt

13、s may be incompatible with each other. Users shall consider compatibility before combining asphalts from different sources. Note 2Definitions for many terms common to asphalt binder are found in ASTM D8. 4. SIGNIFICANCE AND USE 4.1. This standard specifies procedures for minimizing disruption of PGA

14、B shipments. This is accomplished by a certification system that evaluates quality control and specification compliance tests performed by the supplier on samples obtained prior to shipment. 4.2. The number of PGAB available under M 320 may require construction of additional storage facilities if th

15、e procedure of “sample and hold while testing” is followed exclusively. The addition of new storage capacity at a facility may be infeasible at some locations. Standardization of procedures that allow shipment under an approved supplier certification provides the flexibility needed to use existing f

16、acilities and to limit the shipment disruptions. 4.3. This standard provides information on the following activities: 4.3.1. General requirements that the supplier shall satisfy to be given approved-supplier status; 4.3.2. Minimum requirements that shall be included in a suppliers quality control pl

17、an; 4.3.3. General requirements that the agency shall satisfy before certification; 4.3.4. Procedure for shipping PGAB under an ASC system; 4.3.5. Procedure for agency monitoring of an ASC system at the shipping facility; and 4.3.6. Procedure for field sampling and testing of PGAB shipped under an A

The suppliers quality control plan shall identify the following: 9.1.1. Facility type (refinery, terminal, i

35、n-line blending, or HMA plant); 9.1.2. Facility location; 9.1.3. Name and telephone number of the person responsible for quality control at the facility; 9.1.4. The quality control tests to be performed on each PGAB; and 9.1.5. Name and location of the laboratory performing quality control tests on

36、the PGAB that is shipped. 9.2. The suppliers quality control plan shall include a declaration stating that if a test result indicates that a shipment of PGAB is not in compliance with the purchase specifications, the supplier shall (1) immediately notify the agency of the shipment in question; (2) i

37、dentify the material; (3) cease shipment until material complies with the specification; (4) notify the agency prior to resuming shipment; and (5) implement any mutually agreed-upon procedures for the disposition of the material. In the event a mutual agreement is not obtained, the specifying agency

38、 shall have final authority in the decision on specification compliance. 9.3. The suppliers quality control plan shall describe method and frequency for initial testing, quality control testing, and specification compliance testing. 9.3.1. Initial TestingFor each grade of PGAB to be supplied, specif

39、ication compliance testing (complete M 320 testing) shall be performed for at least three consecutive lots. A lot may be a fixed batch of material or a specified quantity in a continuous operation (see Note 4). The supplier and the agency shall agree on a lot size. The agency must approve any change

40、 to a lot size. Note 4If a batch operation is used to manufacture the PGAB, a tank may be defined as a lot. Lot size would be the amount of material batched into the tank. If a continuous process (in-line blending or a shipment from “live” tanks) is used to manufacture the PGAB, lot size may be obta

41、ined at random during the production for continuous operations. Lot size shall depend on the production method used and the quantity of the PGAB produced. 9.3.2. Reduced Frequency of Testing for Specification ComplianceIf approved by the agency, the frequency of testing for specification compliance

42、may be decreased if the individual M 320 test result for every sample of the initial testing is within specification by at least the tolerance of the test method for each of the required test methods. With the approval of the agency, the frequency of testing may be further reduced as long as the ind

43、ividual test results continue to meet the tolerance criterion. If the tolerance criterion is not met, every lot will continue to be tested for the individual M 320 property until three consecutive lots comply with the tolerance criterion. 9.3.3. Minimum FrequencySpecification compliance testing shal

44、l be run at the minimum frequency required by the agency for each PGAB that is supplied. 9.3.4. Quality Control Testing for Guiding ManufacturerAt least two M 320 tests shall be used for monitoring high- and low-temperature properties of the PGAB.
