3、d covers the determination of bulk specific gravity (Gmb) of compacted bituminous mixtures. 1.2. This method can be used with samples that contain open or interconnecting voids or absorb more than 2.0 percent of water by volume, or both (Note 1). Note 1Water absorption by volume is determined using

4、T 166; this specification does not contain a direct determination of the water absorption by volume. 1.3. The bulk specific gravity of compacted bituminous mixtures may be used in calculating the unit mass of the mixture. 1.4. The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. Unit eq

Test specimens may be either laboratory-compacted asphalt mixtures or cylindrical cores sampled from asphalt pavements. 4.2. Size of SpecimensIt is recommended that:

10、(1) the diameter of cylindrically compacted or cored specimens shall be at least equal to four times the maximum size of the aggregate; and (2) the thickness of specimens be at least one and one-half times the maximum size of the aggregate. 4.3. Specimens shall be (1) compacted in accordance with T

11、245, T 312, or ASTM D5581, or (2) taken from asphalt pavements with a core drill, diamond or carborundum saw, or by other suitable means. Care shall be taken to avoid distortion or cracking of specimens during and after removal from the mold or pavement. Specimens shall be stored in a cool, safe pla

12、ce. 4.4. Specimens shall be free from foreign materials such as seal coat, tack coat, foundation material, soil, paper, or foil. 4.5. If desired, specimens may be separated from other pavement layers by sawing or other suitable means. Care should be exercised to ensure separation does not damage the

13、 specimens. 5. APPARATUS 5.1. Weighing DeviceThe weighing device shall have sufficient capacity, be readable to 0.1 percent of the sample mass or better, and conform to the requirements of M 231. 5.2. Water Displacement Measurement ApparatusThe water displacement measurement apparatus shall be of su

14、fficient size to accept a 100-mm (4-in.) or 150-mm (6-in.) diameter laboratory-molded or field-cored specimen. It shall have depth adequate to immerse the bituminous specimen throughout its height. The water displacement measurement apparatus must be capable of calculating and displaying the bulk sp

15、ecific gravity based on the displaced water volume and the dry mass of the asphalt sample within 30 s to avoid the influence of absorbed water during the rapid measurement of displacement. 6. STANDARDIZATION 6.1. The water displacement measurement apparatus requires periodic verification. The unit s

16、hould be verified once each day before bulk specific gravity measurements are taken. Refer to the manufacturers recommendations for the verification procedure. 7. PROCEDURE 7.1. Dry the asphalt specimen to a constant mass. Specimens exposed to moisture shall initially be dried overnight in an oven a

17、t 52 3C (125 5F) (Note 2). Allow the specimen to cool to room temperature, 25 5C (77 9F).

After initialization, enter the dry mass of the asphalt specimen to the nearest 0.1 g on the keypad, and slide the sample holder out of the water. Place the specim

19、en between the holders rails, and slowly immerse the specimen into the chamber. Note 2Recently molded laboratory samples that have not been exposed to moisture do not require drying. 7.2. Record the bulk specific gravity displayed on the screen of the measurement device, or export the sample data to

20、 a printer or computer. 8. REPORT 8.1. The report shall include the following: 8.1.1. Bulk specific gravity reported to the nearest 0.001. 9. PRECISION 9.1. Research to develop estimates for the precision of this bulk specific gravity measurement has not been completed. 1This provisional standard was first published in 2010. 2016 by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials.All rights reserved.
