This guide reviews the way asphalt mixture can be specified, with
particular emphasis on the test methods used to measure
performance. The advantages and limitations of the tests are
described for measuring the desired property, and engineers can
specify a test according to the material's use. The book starts
with a resume of specifications and their relative advantages and
disadvantages for different situations. Then different properties
are discussed in terms of: their specification; the test methods
that can be used (primarily the EN 12697 suite of European methods,
of which the author has been responsible for drafting); the extent
to which the results predict performance; the levels that can be
achieved with different asphalt mixes and types; what levels, if
any, should be specified in various situations and pavement layers;
and which other properties are adversely affected by enhanced
performance. The final section covers various aspects of
sustainability, with a strong emphasis on durability. Better
understanding should enable clients and consultants who specify
pavements to produce durable asphalt pavements more economically,
and also help asphalt producers and students trying to understand
the black art of asphalt.
