Standard Test Method to Determine Asphalt Retention of Paving Fabrics Used in Asphalt Paving for Full-Width Applications

Importancia y uso:

5.1 The asphalt retention is a test procedure for full-width paving fabrics. The use of this test method is to establish an index value by providing standard criteria and a basis for uniform reporting.

5.2 This procedure is applicable for testing conditioned specimens (see 8.1). The results obtained may vary, depending on which type of asphalt cement is used for the test. Unless stated otherwise, use Grade PG 64-22 as defined in Specification D3381/D3381M or equivalent asphalt cement.

5.3 This procedure is applicable whenever it is desired to determine an index asphalt retention of paving fabric.

5.4 If it becomes necessary for the purchaser and the seller to use this test method for acceptance testing, the statistical bias, if any, between the purchaser's and seller's laboratories should be determined. Such comparison is to be based on specimens randomly drawn from the sample of geotextile being evaluated.
