EN 12697-6:2003+A1:2007
(Main + Amendment)Bituminous mixtures - Test methods for hot mix asphalt - Part 6: Determination of bulk density of bituminous specimens
General Information
- Abstract
This European Standard describes test methods for determining the bulk density of a compacted bituminous specimen. The test methods are intended for use with laboratory compacted specimens or specimens from cores cut from the pavement after placement and compacting.
This European Standard describes the following four procedures, the choice of which is used being dependent on the estimated content and accessibility of voids in the specimen:
a) bulk density - dry (for specimens with a very closed surface);
b) bulk density - saturated surface dry (SSD) (for specimens with a closed surface);
c) bulk density - sealed specimen (for specimens with an open or coarse surface);
d) bulk density by dimensions (for specimens with a regular surface and with geometric shapes, i. e. squares, rectangles, cylinders etc.
NOTE Annex A (informative) gives general guidance on selecting the appropriate procedure.

5.2 Additional materials for the sealed specimen procedure Material to seal the specimen, in such a way, that inclusion of voids (being no part of the specimen) between seal and specimen is prevented. The density of the sealing material at test temperature shall be known to the nearest 0,010 g/cm3. NOTE The material used can be paraffin wax, shrinkage foil, latex emulsion etc. The procedure to apply such materials should be such that the specimen is not damaged. It is very important that the seal exactly covers the specimen including the voids which technologically form part of its volume: when applying the seal penetration of the internal voids belonging to the material is prevented, as well as inclusion of extra voids between seal and specimen or in seal folds. 6 Apparatus
