Introduction
The ultimate aim is to specify the required fundamental properties of the bituminous mixtures. However, as
specifications for Asphalt Concrete for Ultra-thin layers have traditionally been based empirically on
compositional recipes combined with specifications for the constituent materials with additional requirements
based on performance related tests and as insufficient experience is available with fundamental testing of
Asphalt Concrete for Ultra-thin layers, this document for the moment specifies empirical requirements only.
Asphalt Concretes for Ultra-thin layers is to be used for surface courses with a thickness of 10 mm to 20 mm.
UTLAC is a hot mix asphalt road surface course laid on a bonding layer, at a nominal thickness between 10
and 20 mm with properties suitable for the intended use. The method of bonding is an essential part of the
process and the final product is a combination of the bonding system and the bituminous mixture.

4 Requirements for constituent materials
4.1 General
Only constituent materials with established suitability shall be used.
The establishment of suitability shall result from one or more of the following:
 European Standard;
 European Technical Approval;
 specifications for materials based on a demonstrable history of satisfactory use in asphalt. Evidence shall
be provided on their suitability. This evidence may be based on research combined with evidence from
practice.
NOTE In the European asphalt industry it is common practice to use additives like inorganic or organic fibres,
pigments, waxes etc., which are not covered by a European Standard or ETA. This document allows the use of those
materials.
4.2 Binder
4.2.1 General
The binder shall be a paving grade bitumen or a modified bitumen. The paving grade bitumen shall conform to
EN 12591, the modified bitumen to EN 14023 or to be a hydrocarbon binder declared by the manufacturer.
Natural asphalt conforming to EN 13108-4, Annex B, may be added.

prEN 13108-9:2010 (E)
4.2.2 Selection of binder
The grade of the bitumen, the type and grade of the modified bitumen, and the amount and category of natural
asphalt shall be as specified.
In case of a paving grade bitumen the grade shall be selected from the grades between 35/50 and 250/330
inclusively.
NOTE Given the width variety of climates, traffic loads, used materials etc. it can be necessary to select on a regional
level specific binders.
When modified bitumen is used to improve properties that are not covered by the empirical specification
additional proof shall be provided. This proof shall be delivered through investigation using standards in the
EN 12697 series, that the modified bitumen is suitable for improving the desired functional characteristics. The
proof may be based on earlier research.
NOTE EN 14023 is a grading system and is only meant to characterise the modified bitumen. The modified bitumen
specifications are not functionally based, and it is not possible to combine these specifications with empirical asphalt
specifications to demonstrate functional behaviour. The proof required would normally be a Type Testing on a similar
mixture incorporating the modified binder showing fulfilment of the relevant property. The grade of the bitumen, the type
and grade of the modified bitumen, the grade of the hard grade bitumen and the amount and category of natural asphalt
may be selected.
4.2.3 Binder in mixtures with reclaimed asphalt
When using more than 10 % by mass of the total mixture of reclaimed asphalt from mixtures in which mainly
paving grade bitumen has been used and when the binder added to the mixture is a paving grade bitumen
and the grade of the bitumen is specified, the binder shall conform to the following requirements.
 The penetration or the softening point of the binder in the resulting mixture, calculated from the
penetrations or the softening points of the added binder and the recovered binder from the reclaimed
asphalt, shall meet the penetration or softening point requirements of the specified grade. The calculation
shall be executed according to the methods described in Annex A. Either the penetration or the softening
point requirement shall be specified.
4.3 Aggregate

NOTE 2 The expression “as appropriate for the intended use” in 4.3.1 to 4.3.4 means that the selection of the
requirements and the particular category depends on a number of conditions. These conditions will include traffic density,
climatic conditions, the construction of the course in which the mixture will be used, and economic considerations.
4.4 Reclaimed asphalt
The use and the amount of reclaimed asphalt and the mix group from which the reclaimed asphalt has been
or will be derived shall be as specified.
The properties of reclaimed asphalt declared in accordance with prEN 13108-8 shall conform to specified
requirements appropriate to the intended use.
NOTE 1 The expression "appropriate to the intended use" means that the selection of the requirements and the
particular category depends on a number of conditions. These conditions will include traffic density, climatic conditions, the
construction of the course in which the mixture will be used, and economic considerations.
The upper sieve size D of the aggregate in the reclaimed asphalt shall not exceed the upper sieve size D of
the mixture. The aggregate properties of the reclaimed asphalt shall fulfil the requirements specified for the
aggregate for the mixture.
NOTE 2 In general the use of reclaimed asphalt will not be allowed due to the compulsory gap graded grading of the
mixture, which is difficult to control with reclaimed asphalt.

required in 4.1.

natural asphalt and the percentage(s) of additive(s) shall be declared and documented.
At the target composition the mixture shall conform to the specified requirements.
When using reclaimed asphalt from mixtures in which a modified bitumen and/or a modifier additive has been
used, and/or the mixture itself contains a modified bitumen or a modifier, the amount of reclaimed asphalt
shall not exceed 10 % by mass of the total mixture.
