Description / Abstract:
This specification covers asphalt binders graded by performance
using the multiple stress creep recovery (MSCR) test. Grading
designations are related to the average seven-day maximum pavement
design temperature, minimum pavement design temperature, and
traffic loading.
This specification incorporates TP 70 for determining
non-recoverable creep compliance, Jnr. "S",
"H", "V", or "E" grades must be specified for standard, high, very
high, or extremely high traffic loading, respectively.
Note 1-For asphalt cements graded by viscosity
at 60°C, see M 226.
Note 2-For Performance-Graded Asphalt Binder,
see M 320.
