Summary of Test Method4.1 The repeated-load indirect tension resilient modulus testof bituminous mixtures is conducted through repetitive appli-cations of compressive load

17、s in a haversine waveform. Thecompressive load is applied along a vertical diametral plane ofa cylindrical specimen of asphalt concrete. The resultinghorizontal and vertical deformations of the specimen aremeasured. Values of resilient Poissons ratio are calculatedusing recoverable vertical and hori

18、zontal deformations. Theresilient modulus values are subsequently calculated using thecalculated Poissons ratio. Two separate resilient modulusvalues are obtained. One, termed instantaneous resilient modu-lus, is calculated using the instantaneous recoverable deforma-tion that occurs during the unlo

19、ading portion of one load-unload cycle. The other, termed total resilient modulus, iscalculated using total recoverable deformation which includesboth the instantaneous recoverable and the time-dependentcontinuing recoverable deformation during the unload orrest-period portion of one cycle.5. Signif

20、icance and Use5.1 Resilient modulus can be used in the evaluation ofmaterials quality and as input for pavement design, evaluationand analysis. With this method, the effects of temperature andload on resilient modulus can also be investigated.NOTE 1The quality of the results produced by this standar

21、d aredependent on the competence of the personnel performing the procedureand the capability, calibration, and maintenance of the equipment used.Agencies that meet the criteria of Practice D 3666 are generally consid-ered capable of competent and objective testing/sampling/inspection/etc.Users of th

22、is standard are cautioned that compliance with D 3666 alonedoes not completely assure reliable results. Reliable results depend onmany factors; following the suggestions of D 3666 or some similaracceptable guideline provides a means of evaluating and controlling someof those factors.6. Apparatus6.1

23、Testing MachineTesting machine shall be a top load-ing, closed loop, electro-hydraulic or pneumatic testing ma-chine with a function generator capable of applying ahaversine-shaped load pulse over a range of load durations,load levels, and rest periods.6.2 Loading DeviceLoading device should be capa

24、ble oftesting 101.6 or 152.4 mm (4 or 6 in.) diameter specimens ofheights up to 63.5 mm (2.5 in.). The device should be compactenough to be used within an environmental chamber. It shouldhave a fixed bottom loading plate and a moving upper loadingplate. The movement of the upper plate should be guid

25、ed bytwo columns, one on each side of the specimen and equidistantfrom the loading axis and the loading strips, to ensure it hasminimal translational or rotational motion during loading of thespecimen. The guide columns shall have a near frictionlessbearing surface. The surface of the guide columns

26、shall befrequently inspected for any grooves caused due to friction.Alignment of the device, within the loading system, shall beachieved so that such friction is limited. The upper plate shallbe rigid enough to prevent excessive or undue deflection duringloading. A picture of the loading strip parts

27、 is presented in Fig.1. The loading strips shall be perpendicular to the lineconnecting the two guide columns.6.3 Temperature-Control SystemThe temperature-controlsystem should be capable of maintaining a temperature of 5 to45C (41 to 113F) 61.0C (62F). The system shall includea temperature-controll

29、izontal and vertical deforma-tions and loads. The system shall be capable of recordinghorizontal and vertical deformations in the range of 0.00038mm (0.000015 in.) of deformation. Load cells shall be accu-rately calibrated with a resolution of 8.9 N (2 lb) or better.6.4.1 Data AcquisitionThe measuri

30、ng or recording de-vices must provide real-time deformation and should becapable of monitoring readings on tests conducted to 1 Hz.Computer monitoring systems are recommended. The dataacquisition system shall be capable of collecting 200 scans persecond (a scan includes all deformation and load valu

31、es at agiven point of time). The capability to have real-time plots(simultaneous to the data collection by the computer monitor-ing system) shall also be provided to check the progress of thetest. If strip chart recorders are used without computer moni-toring systems, the plotting scale shall be adj

32、usted such thatthere is a balance between the scale reduction required as aresult of the pen reaction time and the scale amplificationneeded for purposes of accurate measurement of values from aplot. Actual load values, and not the intended load values, shallbe used for calculation purposes and so t

33、he data acquisitionsystem shall also be capable of monitoring the load valuescontinuously during testing.NOTE 2Tests at multiple frequencies can be done. The frequencies ofFIG. 1 Sample with Loading Strip PartsD73690920.33 and 0.5 Hz are suggested.6.4.2 Deformation MeasurementBoth horizontal and ver

34、-tical deformation shall be measured on the surface of thespecimen by mounting LVDTs between gauge points along thehorizontal and vertical diameters. The gauge length can be ofthree sizes in relation to the diameter of the specimen:14 of thediameter or 25.4 mm for a 101.6 mm-diameter of the specimen

35、(1 in. for a 4 in.) or 38.1 mm for a 152.4 mm-diameter of thespecimen (1.5 in. for a 6 in.),12 of the diameter or 50.8 mm fora 101.6 mm diameter of the specimen (2 in. for a 4 in.) or 76.2mm for a 152.4 mm diameter of the specimen (3 in. for a 6 in.)and one diameter or 101.6 for a 101.6 mm diameter

36、of thespecimen (4 in. for a 4 in.) or 152.4 mm for a 152.4 mmdiameter of the specimen (6 in. for a 6 in.). It is required tohave the two LVDTs, on each face of the specimen, onehorizontal and one vertical resulting in a total of four LVDTsfor deformation measurement.NOTE 3The results obtained with g

37、auge length of14 of the diameterof the specimen have the best precision.6.4.3 Load MeasurementThe repetitive loads shall bemeasured with an electronic load cell with a capacity adequatefor the maximum required loading and a sensitivity of 0.5 % ofthe intended peak load. During period of resilient mo

38、dulustesting, the load cell shall be monitored and checked, once amonth, with a calibrated proving ring to ensure that the loadcell is operating properly. Additionally, the load cell shall bechecked at any time that the QC/QA testing with in-housesynthetic specimen (see 9.1) indicates a change in th

39、e systemresponse or when there is a suspicion of a load cell problem.6.5 Loading StripSteel loading strips, with concavesample contact surfaces, machined to the radius of curvature ofa 101.60 6 0.10 mm diameter specimen (4.000 6 0.004 in) or152.40 6 0.15 mm diameter specimen (6.000 6 0.006 in), arer

40、equired to apply load to the test specimens. The contact areasof the loading strips shall be 12.7 mm (12 in.) and 19 mm (34in.) wide respectively for the 4 in specimen and 6 in specimen.The outer edges of the curved surface shall be filed lightly toremove sharp edges that might cut the specimen duri

41、ng testing.Thin lines should be drawn along the length of the strip at itscenter, to help alignment. Also, appropriate marking should bemade so as to center the specimen within the length of thestrips. This could be either done by matching the center ofspecimen with a mark at the center of the strip

42、 or bypositioning the specimen between two marks at the ends of thespecimen thickness, or both.6.6 Marking and Alignment Devices:6.6.1 The LVDT alignment device should align the horizon-tal and vertical LVDTs simultaneously on the top and bottomfaces of the specimen for gluing. If such a device is n

43、ot usedthen a marking device shall be used to mark mutually perpen-dicular axes on the top and bottom faces of the specimenthrough the center. The axes shall be simultaneously marked onthe top and bottom faces of the specimen to ensure that the axeson the front and the back lie in a single plane.6.6

44、.2 An alignment device shall be used to position andplace horizontal and vertical supports for gages or LVDTsalong the horizontal and vertical diameter of the specimen andhold them there until the glue that holds the supports cures. Itshall be easily removable, without disturbing the LVDT (oncethe g

45、lue cures), and shall not be destructively mounted on thespecimen. The device shall be capable of mounting the LVDTat a gauge length of one-quarter and one half of the diameter ofthe specimen. The LVDT shall be as close as possible to (butnot touching) the surface of the specimen so as to minimize t

46、hebulging effect. To ensure uniform test results, a spacing of 5.08mm (0.2 in.) is recommended. The axis of the LVDT shall notbe at a distance greater than 6.35 mm (0.25 in.) from thesurface of the specimen. Fig. 2 shows an example of alignmentdevice.7.

The test specimen can be obtained from fieldcoring or from a Marshall-compacted specimen or from agyratory-compacted specimen. Depending on the h

48、eight of thegyratory-compacted specimen and the thickness of the testspecimen, two or three specimens can be sawed from acompacted specimen.7.2 Core Specimens:7.2.1 Cores for test specimen preparation, which may con-tain one or more testable layers, must have smooth and uniformsurfaces and must meet

49、 specimen diametric and thicknessrequirements summarized in 7.1. Cores that are obviouslydeformed or have any visible cracks must be rejected. Irregulartop and bottom surfaces shall be trued as necessary, andindividual layer specimens shall be obtained by cutting with adiamond saw using water or air as coolant. Additional speci-mens for each layer must be collected in the field in order toperform the pretest tensile strength.7.2.2 If a core specimen has more than one layer, the layersshall be separated at the layer interface. Layers containingmore than
