SIST EN 13924:2006
Test samples shall be taken from the laboratory samples, and prepared for testing, as described in EN 12594. 5 Requirements and test methods 5.1 Properties and related test methods 5.1.1 General The properties of and related test methods for hard paving grade bitumens shall be in accordance with Table 1. When tested by the methods given in the tables, the various paving grades shall conform to the limits specified by classes in that table. NOTE 1 For specifying bitumen the appropriate class for each technical requirement is selected in turn, different classes may be selected for different properties. The selection of classes should be made from past experience to avoid unworkable combinations, also see in Table 1, Table footnote f. NOTE 2 Table 1 includes a "No Performance Determined" class (NPD), a “No Requirement” class (NR) and a "To Be Reported" class (TBR). The NPD class has been included to accommodate countries where the characteristic, for a given intended use, is not subject to regulatory requirements. (See Annex ZA for further information). The NR class has been included for characteristics that are not mentioned in Table ZA.1 (i.e. not required for the purpose of regulatory marking), where there is no requirement to specify or declare a value.
The TBR class has been included to facilitate selection in countries which merely wish to record a supplier's declared value or range for a particular requirement. It should not be considered as a ‘Class’ for the purpose of regulatory marking. These values can be used as a basis for the development of future technical specifications. NOTE 3 Each country is anticipated to have a specific selection of specifications, which, more than likely, will be different, and each country could publish the table of its applicable specifications in a national guide to determine the appropriate specification from this document. 5.1.2 Consistency at intermediate service temperatures Consistency at intermediate service temperature for these hard paving grade bitumens shall comply with the requirements for penetration at 25 °C in Table 1.
The grades are designated by the nominal penetration range at 25 °C. 5.1.3 Consistency at elevated service temperatures Consistency at elevated service temperature for these hard paving bitumens shall comply with the requirements for softening point Ring and Ball and, if selected, viscosity as indicated in Table 1. Hard paving grade bitumens are supplied for a variety of end uses, and thus the specifications include a wide range of softening point Ring and Ball values. A restricted softening point range, of ± 5 °C about a mid-point, shall be declared by the supplier; the overall range shall be within the range in the tables. NOTE The properties and related test methods, given in Table 1, provide for different climatic, traffic and other conditions across Europe.
5.1.4 Durability – Resistance to hardening Durability shall be demonstrated by compliance with the required surrogate characteristics of Table 1. SIST EN 13924:2006
Appropriate tests and classes, for measurements on material after the hardening procedure, are given in Table 1. The choice will depend upon the intended use of the product. If the supplier wishes to declare the penetration index (for the purpose of regulatory marking), it shall be calculated in accordance with Annex A. 5.1.5 Informative properties The specifications include a table of informative properties (Table B.1) based on new test methods that are under development. Suppliers of hard paving grade bitumens are encouraged to produce data from these measurements as “Supplier Declared Values”. It is hoped that the data so provided will be of assistance in developing performance-related specifications in the future. 5.1.6 Other properties 5.1.6.1 Flash point Flash point shall be determined by the Cleveland open cup method in EN ISO 2592. NOTE The Pensky-Martens closed cup method (see EN ISO 271
