Bituminous mixtures - Test methods - Part 19: Permeability of specimen

This document specifies a method for determining the vertical and horizontal permeability of cylindrical specimens of bituminous mixtures with interconnecting voids. The document applies to specimens cored out of the road, specimens from laboratory made slabs or laboratory specimens prepared with a compaction device provided the thickness of the specimen is not less than twice the nominal maximum particle size of the aggregate in the mixture. The nominal diameter of specimens should be either 100 mm or 150 mm unless the nominal maximum particle size of the aggregate size exceeds 22 mm, when the nominal diameter is 150 mm.

Asphalt - Prüfverfahren - Teil 19: Durchlässigkeit der Probekörper

Dieses Dokument legt ein Verfahren zur Bestimmung der vertikalen und horizontalen Durchlässigkeit von zylindrischen Asphalt-Probekörpern mit miteinander verbundenen Hohlräumen fest. Dieses Dokument gilt für durch Kernbohren aus einer Fahrbahnbefestigung entnommene Probekörper, für Probekörper aus im Laboratorium hergestellten Platten oder für im Laboratorium mit einer Verdichtungsvorrichtung hergestellte Probekörper, sofern die Dicke des Probekörpers nicht geringer als das Zweifache der maximalen Nennkorngröße der im Gemisch verwendeten Gesteinskörnung ist. Der Nenndurchmesser der Probekörper sollte entweder 100 mm oder 150 mm betragen, es sei denn, die maximale Nennkorngröße der Gesteinskörnung überschreitet 22 mm, in diesem Fall beträgt der Nenndurchmesser 150 mm.

Mélanges bitumineux - Méthodes d'essai - Partie 19 : Perméabilité des éprouvettes

Ce document spécifie une méthode pour déterminer la perméabilité verticale et horizontale d’éprouvettes cylindriques de mélanges bitumineux avec des vides communicants. Ce document s’applique à des carottes prélevées dans la chaussée, à des éprouvettes extraites de plaques fabriquées en laboratoire ou à des éprouvettes de laboratoire préparées avec un dispositif de compactage, à condition que l’épaisseur de l’éprouvette ne soit pas inférieure à deux fois la dimension nominale maximale des granulats du mélange. Il convient que le diamètre nominal des éprouvettes soit égal à 100 mm ou à 150 mm, sauf si la dimension nominale maximale des granulats dépasse 22 mm alors que le diamètre nominal est de 150 mm.

prepared with a compaction device provided the thickness of the specimen is not less than twice the
nominal maximum particle size of the aggregate in the mixture. The nominal diameter of specimens
should be either 100 mm or 150 mm unless the nominal maximum particle size of the aggregate size
exceeds 22 mm, when the nominal diameter is 150 mm.

4 Principle
A column of water with a constant height is applied to a cylindrical specimen and is allowed to
permeate through the specimen for a controlled time in either a vertical or horizontal direction
depending upon the parameter being measured. The resultant flow rate of the water Q or Q is a
v h
calculated measure of the permeability value K or K . The test is carried out at ambient temperature.
v h
NOTE When the void content of the same specimen is determined, the relationship between permeability and
void content can be established.
5 Vertical permeability
5.1 General
In this method, only the water flow in a vertical direction through the specimen is measured.
5.2 Apparatus for vertical permeability
5.2.1 Apparatus as shown in Figure 1. The dimensions shall be such to ensure the water column
height is (300 ± 1) mm. The external diameter of the tube and any fittings shall be such that no water
can flow between the wall of the tube and the specimen when in place; the thickness of the tube shall be
sufficient to ensure it retains its shape but shall not be more than 5 mm.
The external diameter of the tube should generally be greater than the diameter of the specimen by up
to 5 mm.
NOTE A suitable rubber cuff that fits snugly around the tube and sample is one method to ensure that no
water can flow between the two. Another approach that could be used is to attach the plastic tube with duct tape
to the specimen.
5.2.2 A balance with suitable capacity and capable of weighing with an accuracy of ± 0,5 g.
5.3 Procedure
5.3.1 Determine the dimensions of the specimen, to the nearest millimetre, according to EN 12697-
29. The thickness shall be greater than 25 % of the diameter and greater than twice the nominal
maximum aggregate size of the mixture.
5.3.2 If the specimen is trimmed by saw cutting, it shall be cleaned prior to testing, to prevent
restriction of the water flow.
5.3.3 The test shall be carried out at ambient temperature within the ranges of 15 °C to 25 °C and
shall be monitored and recorded. Place the specimen in a rubber cuff. Insert a plastic tube in the cuff
and place it on top of the specimen. Carefully inflate the rubber cuff with air to at least 50 kPa, so that it
presses firmly around the wall of the specimen to prevent leakage of water along the wall. A seal needs
to be ensured between the cuff and the tube.

5.3.4 Place the cuff with the specimen on a perforated plate and place it in a container that is filled
with water to the maximum level. Adjust the feet of the perforated plate in such a way that the upper
side of the specimen is at the same level as the water in the bath. Allow the water to flow into the
specimen for approximately 10 min. After this time, it is assumed that the specimen is saturated with
water and all enclosed air is removed.
5.3.5 Fill the plastic tube with water. There is an outlet in the plastic tube, so that a water column
height of (300 ± 1) mm is always maintained.
5.3.6 Allow the water to flow through the specimen into a container. The container shall be located
above a second container of mass m into which the water passing through the sample can overflow to
the level of the top of the sample. After approx. 1 min, empty the second container and collect the water
that flows through into the weighed second container for a certain time t, minimum 60 s. After the time
t weigh the second container together with the collected water m .
At a voids content of about 20 %, the vertical flow of water is about 3 l/min to 10 I/min. It should be
noted, however, that when the test is carried out on a core taken from the road surface, the surface can
be somewhat clogged and although still retaining 20 % voids may not have a flow in this range.
The measuring time can be decreased from 60 s if the amount of water exceeds 8 l. The decreased
measuring time should then be reported in the test report.
5.3.7 Repeat the test on the same specimen.
