EN 12697-5:2002+A1:2007 (E) 7 3.5 loose bulk density of aggregate quotient obtained when the mass of dry aggregate filling a specified container without compaction is divided by the capacity of that container 4 Principle The maximum density, together with the bulk density, is used to calculate the air voids content of a compacted sample and other volumetric-related properties of a compacted bituminous mixture. In the volumetric and hydrostatic procedures the maximum density of bituminous mixtures is determined from the volume of the sample without voids and from its dry mass. In the volumetric procedure the volume of the sample is measured as the displacement of water or solvent by the sample in a pyknometer. In the hydrostatic procedure the volume of the sample is calculated from the dry mass of the sample and from its mass in water. In the mathematical procedure the maximum density of a bituminous mixture is calculated from its composition (binder content and aggregate content) and the densities of the constituent mixtures. 5 Materials 5.1 De-aired water (freshly de-aired and cooled) or organic solvent, suitable to solve bituminous binders (for the volumetric and hydrostatic procedures). 5.2 Dispersion agent, [e.g. 7 % of Nonylphenolpolyglcolether (7 groups of Ethoxyl) in water]. 5.3 Boiling water. 6 Apparatus 6.1 Tools to clean samples (if required). 6.2 Ventilated cabinet, capable of drying the sample and maintaining a uniform temperature within (110 ± 5) °C in the vicinity of the test sample(s). 6.3 Suitable tools to loosen and separate the sample, e.g. spatula. 6.4 Balance, accurate to at least 0,1 g. 6.5 Thermometer, accurate to at least 0,1 °C. 6.6 Water-bath, maintaining the water at a uniform temperature within ± 0,2 °C in the vicinity of the test sample(s). The water-bath shall contain a grid to permit submersion of the pyknometer or container to around
20 mm below the upper edge of pyknometer or container and to allow water to circulate. The volume of the bath shall be at least three times that of the pyknometer/container. 6.7 Vibrating table, or other means to shake the pyknometer or container during evacuation of air. 6.8 Pyknometer, (for the volumetric procedure), of suitable size, with an accurately fitting head piece. The volume of the pyknometer shall be such that the sample occupies up to 2/3 of its volume. The volume of the pyknometer shall be regularly calibrated in accordance with annex C. 6.9 Vacuum system, (for the volumetric procedure), with manometer or calibrated vacuum gauge, capable of evacuating air from the pyknometer to a residual pressure of 4 kPa or less.



EN 12697-5:2002+A1:2007 (E) 8 6.10 Container, (for the hydrostatic procedure), capable of being suspended in water. The shape of the container shall be such that the sample can be immersed completely when filling the container with water; the sample shall occupy up to 2/3 of the container’s volume which shall be not less than 3 000 cm3. 6.11 Vacuum desiccator, (for the hydrostatic procedure), or other vacuum vessel capable of accommodating the pyknometer or container. 7 Sampling Samples of bituminous mixture shall be obtained in accordance with EN 12697-27. Samples shall have a mass expressed in grams of at least 50 times the numerical value of the nominal maximum particle size of the aggregates in millimetres, i.e. the largest specified sieve size of the mixture with a minimum of 250 g. 8 Preparation of sample 8.1 Bulk samples Obtain a test sample from a bulk sample after homogenising by riffling or quartering in accordance with EN 12697-28. 8.2 Samples from finished mixture Samples of compacted mixture shall be cleaned by brushing or washing before being placed in the ventilated cabinet, at a temperature of (110 ± 5) °C, dried to constant mass and then separated. NOTE Constant mass is obtained when the change of mass between two determinations at an interval of at least 30 min is less than 0,1 % (m/m). 8.3 Sample separation Samples shall be loosened and separated into coarse particles and agglomerations. Agglomerations shall not be larger than 6 mm. If the mixture is not sufficiently soft to separate manually, warm it on a tray in an oven at a temperature not exceeding 110 °C, but only until it can be properly handled. 9 Procedure 9.1 General All masses shall be determined in grams to the nearest 0,1 g. The volume of the pyknometer shall be determined in cubic metres to the nearest 0,5 x 10-6 m3. 9.2 Procedure A: Volumetric procedure 9.2.1 Weigh the empty pyknometer including the head piece (m1) of known volume (Vp). NOTE The volume of the pyknometer can be determined in accordance with !Annex C". 9.2.2 Place the dry test sample into the pyknometer and bring it to ambient temperature, then weigh again, together with the head piece (m2). 9.2.3 Fill the pyknometer with de-aired water or solvent, up to a maximum of 30 mm belo
