1、Designation: D6926 10Standard Practice forPreparation of Bituminous Specimens Using MarshallApparatus1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D6926; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revis

2、ion. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This practice covers preparation and compaction of 102mm (4 in.) diameter by nominal 64 mm (2.5 in.) highcylindrical bituminous

3、paving mixture specimens by means ofthe original manual Marshall method and subsequent variationsof the method (Test Method D6927). This practice is intendedfor use with laboratory and plant produced bituminous mix-tures with aggregate up to 25 mm (1 in.) maximum size and forrecompaction of asphalt

4、pavement samples.1.2 There are three types of Marshall compaction apparatusin use. The following types of hammer arrangements areincluded in this practice:1.2.1 Manually held hammer handle attached to a flatcompaction foot through a spring loaded swivel and is handoperated (original standard develop

5、ed by the Corps of Engi-neers).1.2.2 Hammer handle restrained laterally (fixed) but notvertically attached to a flat compaction foot through a springloaded swivel and is either mechanically or hand operated.There may or may not be a constant surcharge on top of thehammer handle. Mechanical hammers a

6、re available that oper-ate at (1) nominal 55 blows per minute and (2) equal to orgreater than 75 blows per minute.1.2.3 Hammer handle restrained laterally (fixed) with con-stant surcharge on top of hammer, a slanted compaction foot,rotating mold base, and is mechanically operated.1.3 Although the ma

7、ss and height of mass drop for eachapparatus are the same, density achieved in compacted speci-mens with the same number of blows will be different. It is upto the user to establish the specific required number of blows tobe used for compaction of the specimen in relation to the field.1.4 UnitsThe v

The values given in parentheses aremathematical conversions to SI units that are provided forinformation only and are not considered standard.1.5 The text of this standard references notes and footnoteswhich provide explanatory material

13、l disk is used for extracting compacted speci-mens from molds with the use of the mold collar. Any suitableextraction device such as a hydraulic jack apparatus or a leverarm device may be used, provided the specimens are notdeformed during the extraction process.4.3 Compaction Hammers:4.3.1 Compacti

After cooling, separate the aggregates by dry-sievinginto the desired size fractions.3The following minimu

34、m sizefractions are recommended:1to34 in. (25 to 19 mm)34 to12 in. (19 to 12.5 mm)12 to38 in.

35、plesmust be heated to produce viscosities of 170 6 20 cP (0.17 60.02 Pas) and 0.28 6 0.03 Pas (280 6 30 cP) for mixing andcompacting, respectively. An example of a viscosity tempera-ture chart is given in Fig. 2 of D2493.3Detailed requirements for these sieves are given in ASTM Specification E11.FIG

36、. 3 Typical Mechanical HammerD6926 104NOTE 5Selection of mixing and compaction temperatures at viscosi-ties of 170 6 20 cP (0.17 6 0.02 Pas) and 280 6 30 cP (0.28 6 0.03Pas), respectively, may not apply to modified binders. The user shouldcontact the manufacturer to establish appropriate mixing and

37、compactiontemperature ranges.5.2.2 Cutback Asphalt MixtureThe temperature to whicha cutback asphalt must be heated to produce a viscosity of 1706 20 cP (0.17 6 0.02 Pas) shall be the mixing temperature.The compaction temperature for a cutback asphalt mixture isselected using a compositional chart of

38、 viscosity versus percentsolvent for that cutback asphalt. From the compositional chart,determine the cutback asphalts percentage of solvent byweight from its viscosity at 140F (60C) after it has lost 50percent of its solvent (for rapid-cure and medium-cure cut-backs) or 20 percent of its solvent (f

39、or slow cure cutbacks). Thecompaction temperature is determined from the viscositytemperature chart as that to which the cutback asphalt must beheated to produce a viscosity of 280 6 30 cP (0.28 6 0.03Pas) after losing the specified amount of original solvent.5.2.3 Recompacted Paving MixturesMateria

40、ls obtainedfrom an existing pavement shall be warmed in coveredcontainers in an oven to within 5F (3C) of the desiredcompaction temperature. Heating should only be long enoughto achieve desired compaction temperature. If the compactiontemperature for a specific mixture is not known, experience hassh

41、own that these mixes should be compacted at a temperaturebetween 250F (120C) and 275F (135C). In preparation forheating to compaction temperature the material should bewarmed and worked until a loose mixture condition is ob-tained.Any cut aggregate can be removed. Stability of reheatedand recompacte

42、d mixtures from existing pavements is likely tobe higher than the original mixture due to in service hardeningof the binder. The reheating process will have only minorinfluence on binder hardening.5.3 Mixture PreparationSpecimens may be preparedfrom single batches or multiple batches containing suff

43、icientmaterial for three or four specimens.5.3.1 Weigh into separate containers the amount of eachaggregate size fraction required to produce a batch that willresult in one, two, three, or four compacted specimens 2.5 60.1 in. (63.5 6 2.5 mm) in height (about 1200, 2400, 3600 or4800 g, respectively)

44、. Place aggregate batches in containers ona hot plate or in an oven and heat to a temperature above butnot exceeding the mixing temperature established in 5.2 bymore than 50F (28C) for asphalt cement and tar mixes and25F (14C) for cutback asphalt mixes. Charge the mixingcontainer with the heated agg

45、regate and dry mix thoroughly(approximately 5 s) with scoop or spoon. Form a crater in thedry blended aggregate and weigh the required amount ofbituminous material at mixing temperature into the mixture.For mixes prepared with cutback asphalt, introduce the mixingblade in the mixing bowl and determi

46、ne the total weight of themix components plus bowl and blade before proceeding withmixing. Care must be exercised to prevent loss of the mixduring mixing and subsequent handling. At this point, themixture temperature shall be within the limits of the mixingtemperature established in 5.2. Mix the agg

47、regate and bitumi-nous material rapidly until thoroughly coated for approxi-mately 60 s for single-specimen batches and approximately120 s for multiple-specimen batches.5.3.2 Condition single batches in covered metal containersin an oven at a temperature 15F (8C) to 20F (11C) abovethe compaction tem

48、perature established in 5.2 for a minimumof 1 h and a maximum of 2 h.5.3.3 For multiple batched sample, place the entire batch orsample on a clean non-absorptive surface. Hand mix to ensureuniformity and quarter into appropriate sample size to conformto specimen height requirements. For asphalt ceme

49、nts and tarmixtures, put the samples into metal containers and cover.Place the covered metal containers in a ventilated oven at thetemperature established in 5.3.2 to condition for a minimum of1 h and a maximum of 2 h. Cure cutback asphalt mixture in themixing bowl in a ventilated oven maintained at approximately20F (11C) above the compaction temperature. Curing is to becontinued in the mixing bowl until precalculated weight of 50% solvent loss or more has been obtained. The mix may bestirred in the mixing bowl during c
