Standard Practice for Reducing Samples of Asphalt Mixtures to Testing Size

Abstract

This standard practice outlines methods for the reduction of large samples of asphalt mixture to the appropriate size for testing, employing techniques that are intended to minimize variations in the measured characteristics between the test samples so selected and the large sample.

The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard.

This standard practice may involve hazardous materials, operations, and equipment.

This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use.

It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use
