1、Designation: D7312 10Standard Test Method forDetermining the Permanent Shear Strain and ComplexShear Modulus of Asphalt Mixtures Using the SuperpaveShear Tester (SST)1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D7312; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforig

2、inal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. 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 standard provides performance-related test proce-dures for

3、 the determination of stiffness complex shear modulusand permanent shear strain of asphalt mixtures using theSuperpave Shear Tester (SST). This standard is applicable tothe testing and analysis of modified and unmodified asphaltmixtures.1.2 This standard is applicable to specimens prepared in alabor

4、atory or cored from a pavement for post-constructionanalysis. It is intended for use with specimens having thefollowing minimum dimensions:Nominal Maximum AggregateSize in Asphalt MixtureSpecimenDiameterSpecimenHeight19 mm 150 mm 50 mm12.5 mm, 9.5 mm, 4.75 mm 150 mm 38 mmNOTE 1Nominal maximum aggreg

5、ate size is defined in AASH-TO R35 as one sieve larger than the first sieve to retain more than 10 %of the total aggregate. Asphalt mixtures with a nominal maximumaggregate size greater than 19 mm can be tested using this procedure, butit is not recommended. The larger aggregate sizes may significan

6、tlyinterfere with the material response, thereby affecting the repeatability ofthe test.NOTE 2The SST shall accommodate test specimens of 150 mm indiameter and 50 mm in height. The specimen height of 50 mm ispreferred, but may not be available in roadway cores where layerthickness may be less. If th

7、e specimen height is less than 50 mm, useplaten to platen fixturing (Linear Variable Differential Transformers(LVDTs) or extensometers). Specimen heights less than 38 mm cannot betested because of equipment constraints.NOTE 3The diameter-to-height ratio for shear test specimens shouldbe 3:1 or great

8、er. This effectively eliminates the use of 100 mm diameterspecimens (because of minimum height requirement for testing discussedin Note 2).1.3 The between laboratory reproducibility of this testmethod has not been determined, therefore this standard shouldnot be used for acceptance or rejection of a

9、 material forpurchasing purposes.1.4 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user o

10、f this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Summary of Test Method4.1 This test method includes two procedures.4.1.1 In the frequency sweep test, the test initiates from azero shear load and zero s

19、hear strain. Repeated sinusoidal shearloading oscillates around zero through ten frequencies at agiven temperature while a varying axial load is applied toprevent dilation of the specimen. The loads and deformationsare used to calculate the complex shear modulus and phaseangle of the specimen at eac

20、h frequency.4.1.2 In the repeated shear at constant height test, a repeatedhaversine shear stress is applied to the specimen while avarying axial load prevents dilation. The accumulated sheardeformation at the end of the test is measured to determine thepermanent shear strain.5. Significance and Use

21、5.1 The test procedures and associated analysis techniquesdescribed in this method can be used to determine complexshear modulus and permanent shear strain of asphalt mixtures.The shear frequency sweep test at constant height can be usedto determine the complex shear modulus of a mixture. Therepeate

22、d shear test at constant height can be used to determinepermanent shear strain under repeated loading.NOTE 4The complex shear modulus is used to characterize the shearbehavior of the mixture, and the permanent shear strain relates topavement rutting.6.

Test Specimens7.1 Prepare test specimens according to 7.2, 7.3 or 7.4,asappropriate. Test at least three spe

37、cimens for each procedure (Aor B).NOTE 7Testing additional samples, typically five total, will produce amore accurate test result.7.2 Laboratory-Mixed, Laboratory-Compacted (LMLC)SpecimensSample asphalt binder and aggregates in accor-dance with Practices D140 and D75, respectively. Use theappropriat

38、e proportions of asphalt binder and aggregates ac-cording to the final asphalt mix design.7.2.1 Prepare aggregate batches of the appropriate mass toproduce a compacted specimen 150 mm in diameter and135 6 5 mm in height at the appropriate air void content. Heatthe aggregate batches to the appropriat

39、e mixing temperature.NOTE 8Appendix X1 contains information on the calculation of theappropriate aggregate batch weight to achieve the correct specimendimension at the proper percentage of air voids.7.2.2 Heat the asphalt binder to the appropriate mixingtemperature. Mix the correct proportions of as

40、phalt binder andcombined aggregates to match the asphalt mix design.7.2.3 Condition the asphalt mixture for 4 h 6 5 min at 1356 3C in accordance with AASHTO R30.7.2.4 Compact the asphalt mixture specimen following TestMethod D6925 to produce test specimens with the required airvoids.Test Air Voids i

However,the user should be careful with comparing asphalt

42、 mixtures with differenttarget air voids or compaction. The test procedures and analyses aresensitive to both the percentage of air voids and the compactionprocedure.NOTE 10Specimens are often compacted to a target air void percent-age that is higher than the anticipated percentage of air voids in t

43、he cut testspecimen. This is done because cutting the top and bottom of a compactedspecimen removes lower density material, thereby raising the density(lowering the air voids) of the test specimen. The magnitude of thedifference between the target percentage of air voids for the compactedspecimen an

44、d the target percentage of air voids for the test specimen isdependent upon the nominal maximum aggregate size of the mixture,mixture gradation and other factors. Coarse mixes, or mixes with a largernominal maximum aggregate size, tend to have greater differencesbetween the compacted specimen air vo

45、ids and the test specimen air voids.In general, a 1.0 % offset (compact to a target of 4.0 % air voids or 8.0 %air voids) should be sufficient to achieve the appropriate percentage of airvoids in the test specimen.7.2.5 Allow the compacted mixture specimens to coolcompletely to room temperature. Cut

46、 the specimens to theproper test dimensions. Determine and record the height of thetest specimens in accordance with Test Method D3549.Toverify that the specimen faces are parallel, determine theminimum and maximum height of each individual specimen.
