Significance and Use
Compacted bituminous mixture specimens molded by this procedure are used for various physical tests such as stability, flow, indirect tensile strength, fatigue, creep, and modulus. Density and voids analysis are also conducted on specimens for mixture design and evaluation of field compaction.
Note 1—Uncompacted mixtures are used for determination of theoretical maximum specific gravity.
