Bituminous mixtures - Test methods - Part 51: Surface shear strength test

This Technical Specification describes a test method for measuring the surface shear strength for airfield surface courses, which is a measure of the robustness of asphalt surface courses against shearing. The surface shear strength will depend on the depth of the surface course together with the properties of the surface course material. The binder course material and any bonding agent applied between the two layers may have an influence on the test result for, in particular, ultra-thin surface course.
NOTE   The test was designed for use on airfield runways and taxiways.

Asphalt - Prüfverfahren - Teil 51: Scherfestigkeitsprüfung für Asphaltdecken

Diese Technische Spezifikation beschreibt für Asphaltdecken auf Flugplätzen ein Prüfverfahren zum Messen der Scher(haft)festigkeit, die ein Maß für die Widerstandsfähigkeit dieser Deckschichten gegen Scher-beanspruchung ist. Die Scher(haft)festigkeit hängt von der Dicke (Tiefe) der Fahrbahndeckschicht sowie von den Eigenschaften der verwendeten Straßenbaustoffe ab. Besonders für sehr dünne Asphaltdeckschichten können die Prüfergebnisse durch das für die Binderschicht verwendete Material und den zwischen den beiden Schichten verwendeten Haftkleber beeinflusst werden.
ANMERKUNG   Die Prüfung wurde für Start  und Landebahnen sowie für Rollbahnen konzipiert.

Bitumenske zmesi - Preskusne metode - 51. del: Preskus strižne trdnosti površine

Ta tehnična specifikacija opisuje preskusno metodo za merjenje površinske strižne trdnosti za obrobne plasti na letališču, kar je merilo robustnosti asfaltnih obrabnih plasti v primerjavi z urezninami. Površinska strižna trdnost bo odvisna od globine površinskega toka skupaj z lastnostmi površinskega materiala. Material za vezivo in vsa vezivna sredstva, ki se nanesejo med dvema slojema, lahko vplivajo na rezultat testa, še posebej na ultra tankih obrabnih plasteh.
OPOMBA Preskus je bil zasnovan za uporabo na pristajalnih stezah letališč in dovoznih stezah.

surface shear strength will depend on the depth of the surface course together with the properties of the

EN 12697-27, Bituminous mixtures ― Test methods for hot mix asphalt ― Part 27: Sampling
3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
surface shear strength
torsional strength around the circumference of loading within the surface course and, possibly, a combination
of the rotational shear strength between layers of an asphalt pavement and the torsional strength around the
circumference of loading within the binder course
Note 1 to entry: The surface shear strength will depend on the thickness of the surface course together with the
properties of the surface course material, the binder course material and any bonding agent applied between the two
layers.
Note 2 to entry: The depth of the surface course will determine the extent to which the test measures the rotational
shear strength between layers of an asphalt pavement or the torsional strength around the circumference of loading within
the surface course. The greater the thickness, the less the test will measure rotational shear strength between layers.
Note 3 to entry: If the thickness of the surface course is sufficiently shallow and the torsional strength of the binder
course is sufficiently less than that of the surface course, the failure plane could go through the binder course.
3.2
surface course
top layer of an asphalt pavement
3.3
binder course
layer below the surface course, irrespective of whether it was originally intended to be the binder course and
whether or not it is an asphalt layer
4 Principle
A 100 mm diameter plate is bonded to the surface course and rotated using a torque meter to determine the
torsional strength of the top layer and, in the case of ultra-thin surface courses, the rotational shear strength
between layers. The test can be carried out either in situ or in the laboratory using a nominal 200 mm

diameter core which may be subjected to curing conditions. The in situ test is done without the necessity to
core into the substrate. A curing procedure can be used to assess the effect of moisture in the development of
surface shear strength with time.
5 Apparatus
5.1 Torque meter, fitted with a reading gauge that indicates the maximum torque obtained. The device
shall be calibrated over a range of 0 Nm to 350 Nm with a scale accurate and readable to at least 10 Nm. The
device shall be fitted with a socket fitting allowing steel plates to be fitted and removed.
5.2 Metal plates, each having a diameter of (95 ± 5) mm and a thickness of (14 ± 2) mm. The plate shall
incorporate a fitting enabling it to be couples to the torque meter.
NOTE 1 Mild steel has been found suitable for the plate.
NOTE 2 Fittings of 12,7 mm and 19,05 mm have been found to be suitable for the fitting.
5.3 Thermometer, capable of measuring temperatures from room temperature to 100 °C, readable to
0,1 °C and accurate to 0,5 °C.
5.4 Steel rule, readable to 1 mm.
5.5 Callipers, for measurement of the diameter of the metal plate, if necessary.
5.6 Watch or timer, accurate and readable to 1 s.
5.7 Adaptors and extension rods (optional).
5.8 Core cutting apparatus, suitable for cutting 200 m diameter cores in bituminous and cementitious
materials (laboratory testing only).
NOTE Air cooled coring may be necessary for some mixtures.
5.9 Mould, for confining specimens (laboratory testing only).
5.10 Spirit level (laboratory testing only).
5.11 Oven or refrigerated incubator (laboratory testing and conditioning procedure only).
5.12 Water bath, of suitable size to accommodate at least one specimen and thermostatically controlled
such that a temperature of (20 ± 0,5) °C can be maintained (conditioning procedure only).
6 Materials
6.1 Adhesive of sufficient stiffness to avoid failure within the adhesive or at the interfaces between the
adhesive and the asphalt layers.
NOTE Rapid-setting epoxy resins have been found to be suitable. Polyester resins that are used for repair of a
variety of materials have also been found suitable as adhesive.
6.2 Mounting material, such as rapid-hardening mortar, concrete or grout (laboratory testing only).
