(Specification)Standard Specification for Cutback Asphalt (Medium-Curing Type)
Standard Specification for Cutback Asphalt (Medium-Curing Type)
SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers cutback petroleum asphalts of the medium-curing type for use in the construction and treatment of pavements.
1.2 The values stated in SI units or inch-pounds are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of each other. Combining values from the two systems may result in non-conformance with the standard.

This document is not an ASTM standard and is intended only to provide the user of an ASTM standard an indication of what changes have been made to the previous version. Because
it may not be technically possible to adequately depict all changes accurately, ASTM recommends that users consult prior editions as appropriate. In all cases only the current version
of the standard as published by ASTM is to be considered the official document.
