Procedure6.1 For dense asphalt mixtures, determine the bulk specificgravity of the compacted mixture by

18、Test Method D1188,byTest Method D2726, or by Test Method D6752.6.2 For open asphalt mixtures, determine the density of aregularly shaped specimen of compacted mixture from its drymass (in grams) and its volume (in cubic centimetres).6.2.1 Obtain the height of the specimens by Test MethodD3549.6.2.2

19、Measure the diameter of the specimen at four locationsand determine the average.6.2.3 Calculate the volume of the specimen based on theaverage height and diameter measurement.6.2.4 Convert the density to bulk specific gravity by divid-ing by 0.99707 g/cm3or 997 kg/m3, the density of water at25 C.NOT

20、E 3The density measurements should be converted to theappropriate SI units before performing the calculation in 6.2.4.6.3 Determine the theoretical maximum specific gravity byTest Method D2041 or by Test Method D6857 on a comparableasphalt mixture to avoid the influence of differences ingradation, a

21、sphalt content, etc.6.4 For referee purposes, determine both the bulk specificgravity and the theoretical maximum specific gravity onapproximately equal portions of the same sample of compactedasphalt mixture.7. Calculation7.1 Calculate the percent air voids in a compacted asphaltmixture as follows:

22、Percent air voids 5 1001 2 bulk sp grtheoretical maximum sp gr!(1)7.2 If the percent air voids of a specimen tested according to6.1 equals or exceeds 10 %, the specimen shall be retestedaccording to 6.2 as an open asphalt mixture.8. Precision and Bias8.1 The precision of this test method depends on

23、theprecision of test methods for bulk specific gravity and theo-retical maximum specific gravity. It is computed by a proce-dure described in Practice D4460. Since the computation forpercent air voids in 7.1 involves the quotient of bulk specificgravity divided by the theoretical maximum specific gr

24、avity,the quotient formula is used:x/y5y2x21x2y2y4(2)where:x/y= standard deviation for determining precision limits oftest results based on the quotient of test results fromTest Method D1188, D2726,orD6752, and TestMethod D2041 or D6857,x = mean (average) of x standard test results (bulk specificgra
