Bituminous mixtures - Test methods for hot mix asphalt - Part 30: Specimen preparation by impact compactor; German version EN 12697-30:2012
Asphalt - Prüfverfahren für Heißasphalt - Teil 30: Probenvorbereitung, Marshall-Verdichtungsgerät; Deutsche Fassung EN 12697-30:2012
Overview
This European Standard specifies methods of moulding specimens from bituminous mixtures by impact compaction. Such specimens are primarily used to determine bulk density and other technological characteristics, for example, Marshall stability and flow according to EN 12697-34. This European Standard applies to bituminous mixtures (both those made up in a laboratory and those resulting from work site sampling), with not more than 15 % by mass retained on the 22,4 mm sieve and none on the 31,5 mm sieve. The committee responsible for this standard is NA 005-10-10 AA "Asphalt (SpA zu CEN/TC 227/WG 1) Gemeinschaftsausschuss mit FGSV" ("Bituminous mixtures (Mirror Committee of CEN/TC 227/WG 1) Joint committee with FGSV") at DIN.
