Bituminous mixtures - Material specifications - Part 31: Asphalt Concrete with Bituminous Emulsion

This European Standard specifies requirements for plant mixtures of the mix group Asphalt concrete with bituminous emulsion for use on roads, and other trafficked areas. Asphalt concrete with bituminous emulsion is used for surface courses, binder courses, regulating courses, and bases. It is a mixture in which mechanical properties evolve over time following installation. This is not just in terms of cooling, as other asphalts, but also includes curing effects.
NOTE   Asphalt concrete with bituminous emulsion is a mixture in which mechanical properties evolve over time following installation because of curing.
Mixtures utilizing bituminous emulsion based on in situ recycling are not covered by this standard.
This European Standard includes requirements for the selection of the constituent materials. It is designed to be read in conjunction with:
-   Annex A Product Type Assessment (Normative);
-   Annex B Performance characteristic assessment (Informative);
-   Annex C Factory Production Control (Normative).

Asphaltmischgut - Mischgutanforderungen - Teil 31: Emulsionsgebundene Asphaltbetone

Diese Europäische Norm legt Anforderungen an Werksmischungen der Mischgutart Asphaltbeton mit Bitumenemulsion fest, die für die Verwendung beim Bau von Straßen und sonstigen Verkehrsflächen bestimmt sind. Asphaltbeton mit Bitumenemulsion wird für Deckschichten, Binderschichten, Ausgleichsschichten und Tragschichten verwendet. Asphaltbeton mit Bitumenemulsion ist ein Mischgut, bei dem sich die mechanischen Eigenschaften nach dem Einbau im Laufe der Zeit ändern. Das betrifft nicht nur die Abkühlung, wie bei anderen Asphalten, sondern auch die Reifung.
ANMERKUNG   Asphaltbeton mit Bitumenemulsion ist ein Mischgut, bei dem sich die mechanischen Eigenschaften nach dem Einbau im Laufe der Zeit durch Reifung ändern.
Mischgüter, die Bitumenemulsionen auf der Basis der Wiederverwertung vor Ort enthalten, werden durch diese Norm nicht abgedeckt.
Diese Europäische Norm enthält Anforderungen an die Auswahl der Baustoffe. Sie ist anzuwenden in Verbindung mit:
-   Anhang A Bewertung des Produkttyps (normativ);
-   Anhang B Bewertung der Leistungsmerkmale (informativ);
Anhang C Werkseigene Produktionskontrolle (normativ).

Mélanges bitumineux - Spécifications sur le matériau - Partie 31: Enrobés bitumineux à l’émulsion de bitume

Ce document spécifie les exigences relatives aux mélanges appartenant à la famille des enrobés bitumineux à l’émulsion de bitume destinés aux routes et autres zones de circulation. Les enrobés bitumineux à l’émulsion de bitume sont utilisés pour les couches de roulement, de liaison, de reprofilage et d’assises. Il s’agit d’un mélange dans lequel les propriétés mécaniques évoluent dans le temps après la mise en œuvre. Cela n’est pas seulement en termes de refroidissement comme pour les autres enrobés mais inclut aussi des effets de mûrissement.
NOTE Un enrobé bitumineux à l’émulsion de bitume est un mélange dans lequel les propriétés mécaniques évoluent dans le temps après la mise en œuvre du fait du mûrissement.
Les mélanges utilisant des émulsions de bitume obtenus par recyclage en place ne sont pas couverts par ce document.
Ce document comporte des exigences pour la sélection des divers constituants. Il est destiné à être utilisée conjointement avec :
- L’Annexe A Évaluation des types de produit (normative) ;
- L’Annexe B Contrôle de la production en usine (informative) ;
- L’Annexe C Évaluation des caractéristiques de performance (normative).

Bitumenske zmesi - Specifikacije materialov - 31. del: Bitumenski beton z bitumensko emulzijo

Ta evropski standard določa zahteve za skupino proizvodnih zmesi bitumenskih betonov z bitumensko emulzijo za uporabo na cestah in drugih prometnih površinah. Bitumenski beton z bitumensko emulzijo se uporablja za obrabne plasti, vezne plasti, izravnalne plasti in nosilne plasti. Je zmes, katere mehanske lastnosti se razvijejo sčasoma po namestitvi. To ne zajema samo hlajenja, kot pri drugih asfaltih, ampak vključuje tudi učinke strjevanja.
OPOMBA: Bitumenski beton z bitumensko emulzijo je zmes, pri kateri se mehanske lastnosti razvijejo sčasoma po namestitvi zaradi strjevanja.
Zmesi, ki uporabljajo bitumenske emulzije, ki temeljijo na ponovni uporabi materialov na kraju samem, niso zajete v tem standardu.
Ta evropski standard vključuje zahteve za izbiro sestavnih materialov. Zasnovan je tako, da se uporablja skupaj z naslednjim:
– dodatek A: Ocena vrste izdelka (normativni);
– dodatek B: Ocena lastnosti (informativni);
– dodatek C: Kontrola proizvodnje v obratu (normativni).

Introduction
The aim of this document is to enable specification of asphalt concrete mixtures with bituminous
emulsion on a performance basis. In general, however, there are currently more empirical tests
available to describe the mixtures.
This document covers a large variety of materials for different applications, traffic and climate
conditions. The standard gives properties and listings of possible categories. It has to accommodate the
road industry for all of Europe. For this reason, the menu approach for properties has been chosen. The
tables represent categories that are required all over Europe. For this reason, numerical values in tables
do not always obey statistical rules. Based on conditions of use, specific properties and categories may
be defined, in documents related to the application of the product. The categories defined in those
documents take into account the reproducibility of the test when this is given in the appropriate test
method.
Care is to be taken to only select those tests which are applicable to the application of the asphalt and
the use of the pavement and to avoid a combination of potentially conflicting requirements.
