Usuallyperformed internally within the operating laboratory.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 This standard

25、contains the procedure used to measurethe complex shear modulus of a bituminous mixture using aDSR in oscillatory mode and using torsional rectangulargeometry. The DSR must be temperature-controlled using aforced air system.4.2 The standard is suitable for use when the complex shearmodulus is greate

26、r than 1 3 104Pa at the test temperature. Thecomplex shear modulus is typically determined at 20C to70C, although other test temperatures may be used.4.3 Test specimens, nominally 49 6 2 mm in length, 12 62 mm in width and 9 6 1.5 mm in thickness may be cut fromgyratory or Marshall laboratory specim

27、ens or from field cores(see Figs. 1-3). Specimens can be obtained from bituminousmixture samples compacted using other devices as long as it ispossible to determine the air voids of the mixture samples. Thetest specimens are mounted with the 49 6 2 mm lengthforming a vertical dimension in the DSR.4.

28、4 During testing, one of the fixtures4is rotated withrespect to the other at a pre-selected % strain and a range offrequencies at the selected temperatures. The test shall beconducted at 0.01 % strain unless otherwise stated. The %strain stipulated in this test method has been found to produceaccept

29、able results for the bituminous materials investigated todate.NOTE 1Different strain values, within the capabilities of individualequipment, may be selected for testing materials beyond the scope ofthose tested to date. Regardless of % strain or test temperatures chosen ortest materials investigated

30、, the basic testing process described herein willnot change.4.5 The test specimen is maintained at the test temperature60.1C by enclosing the upper and lower fixtures in athermally controlled environmental test chamber.5. Significance and Use5.1 The complex shear modulus of bituminous mixtures is af

31、undamental property of the material. Test results at criticaltemperatures (Tcritical) are used for specifications for somemixes. Mixtures with stiffer binders, aged mixtures, mixtureswith higher amounts of fines (material finer than 75), andmixtures with lower voids all tend to have higher complexsh

32、ear modulus values than mixtures with less stiff binders,unaged mixes, mixtures with low levels of fines and higher airvoids. In general, mixtures with higher complex shear modulusvalues at a given service temperature will exhibit lowerpermanent deformation values than similar mixtures tested atthe

33、same temperature that have lower complex shear modulusvalues.NOTE 2The quality of the results produced by this standard 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 St

35、heometer is being used,either the upper or lower fixture will be the one which is rotated. This test methodis applicable to both stress and strain controlled rheometers. When a stresscontrolled rheometer is used, the test is performed in strain controlled mode.D7552092FIG. 1 Schematic of Preparing T

Reliable resultsdepend on many factors; following t

37、he suggestions of D 3666 or somesimilar acceptable guideline provides a means of evaluating and control-ling some of those factors.6. Interferences6.1 Due to the nature of test geometry this test cannot beused to determine the complex shear modulus of rectangularspecimens obtained from SMA (Stone Ma

38、stic or MatrixAsphalt) or OGFC (Open Graded Friction Course) mixtures.Without confining pressure these specimens fall apart whenbrought to test temperature. At this point in time there is nosuitable method for imparting confining pressure on the testspecimens.6.1.1 The calculation of the complex she

39、ar modulus fromthe data obtained from the DSR is highly dependent upon anaccurate measurement of the dimensions of the test specimen.In the procedure, the length of the test specimen is the gapdistance between the mounting fixtures after the zero gapmeasurement of the torsion fixture has been made.

40、Once thetest specimen is mounted in the fixture, the length of specimenbetween the two mounting points is the length of the specimen.The width and thickness of the specimen is determined prior tomounting the specimen in the DSR using a digital caliper andis reported to the nearest 0.01 mm. These val

41、ues are enteredinto the software of the instrument where the test specimendimensions are requested. Due to the potential for variability inthe width and thickness due to the sample preparation proce-dure, the width and thickness is determined in the centralportion of the test specimen.7. Apparatus7.

42、1 The apparatus for performing the test as described inthis method shall be the equipment described in Test MethodD 7175 under the section heading of Apparatus except asamended below.7.2 Test FixturesTwo fixtures capable of securing therectangular test specimens with the long dimension of the testar

43、ticle in a vertical plane are required.7.3 A torque wrench capable of applying a torque load of0.25 Nm (250 mNm) 6 0.05 Nm of torque to tighten the testspecimen in the mounting fixture without crushing.7.4 Environmental ChamberA chamber for controllingthe temperature of the test specimens. The mediu

44、m used tocontrol the chamber shall be compressed laboratory air orcommercially bottled air. Chilled, compressed laboratory air orliquid nitrogen (LN2) is required if testing temperatures belowapproximately 30C is to be conducted. When laboratory air isused in a forced air environmental chamber, a su

45、itable dryermust be included to prevent condensation of moisture on thetest specimen. The environmental chamber and the temperaturecontroller shall control the temperature of the test specimenmounted between the grips, including any thermal gradientswithin the test specimen, at the test temperature

46、6 0.1C. Dueto the geometry and type of material being tested, water bathsand Peltier fixtures cannot be used to control the test tempera-ture of the specimens. Some companies manufacture a Peltierheated submersion cell, which uses water or some other liquidmedium to condition the test specimen. Test

47、ing the mixturewhile submerged could introduce errors in the results due toweakening of the mix due to moisture interaction.FIG. 3 Sample Preparation to Obtain 50-mm Wide by 12-mm Wide by 10-mm Thick Specimen.D75520947.5 Temperature ControllerA temperature controller ca-pable of maintaining the temp

49、ange of 30C to82C, and with a resolution of 0.1C. Normally this range willbe sufficient unless there is a need to determine the complexshear modulus of the mixture at temperatures below ambient. Ifthere is a need to control test temperatures below ambient thenmechanical cooling or liquid nitrogen will be needed. Thisthermometer shall be used to control the temperature of the testspecimen and shall provide a continuous readout of tempera-ture during the mounting, conditioning, and testing of thespecimen.NOTE 3Platinum resistance thermometers (PRTs
