ASTM D5100-95a(2000)e1

Standard Test Method for Adhesion of Mineral Aggregate to Hot Bitumen

SCOPE
1.1 This test method determines the adhesion of mineral aggregate when applied over a pour coat of hot bitumen on a roof membrane.
1.2 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.
