Bituminous mixtures - Test methods for hot mix asphalt - Part 24: Resistance to fatigue

This European Standard specifies the methods for characterising the fatigue of bituminous mixtures by alternative tests, including bending tests and direct and indirect tensile tests. The tests are performed on compacted bituminous material under a sinusoidal loading or other controlled loading, using different types of specimens and supports.
The procedure is used to rank bituminous mixtures on the basis of resistance to fatigue, as a guide to relative performance in the pavement, to obtain data for estimating the structural behaviour in the road and to judge test data according to specifications for bituminous mixtures.
Because this European Standard does not impose a particular type of testing device, the precise choice of the test conditions depends on the possibilities and the working range of the used device. For the choice of specific test conditions, the requirements of the product standards for bituminous mixtures need to be respected. The applicability of this document is described in the product standards for bituminous mixtures.
Results obtained from different test methods or using different failure criteria are not assured to be comparable.

Asphalt - Prüfverfahren für Heißasphalt - Teil 24: Beständigkeit gegen Ermüdung

Diese Europäische Norm legt die Verfahren fest zur Charakterisierung der Ermüdung von Asphalt durch verschiedene Prüfungen, einschließlich Biegeprüfungen und Prüfungen der direkten sowie der indirekten Zug-festigkeit. Die Prüfungen werden an verdichtetem Asphalt unter sinusförmiger oder einer anderen kontrollier-ten Belastung unter Verwendung verschiedener Probekörpertypen und Auflagerungen vorgenommen. Das Verfahren dient zur Einstufung von Asphalt nach seiner Beständigkeit gegen Ermüdung, als Hinweis auf sein relatives Leistungsvermögen in der Fahrbahnbefestigung, um Daten zur Abschätzung des Tragverhal-tens in der Straße zu erhalten und die Prüfdaten nach den für Asphalt geltenden Festlegungen zu beurteilen. Da diese Europäische Norm keinen bestimmten Prüfgerätetyp vorschreibt, hängt die genaue Auswahl der Prüfbedingungen von den Möglichkeiten und dem Arbeitsbereich des im betreffenden Fall verwendeten Prüf-geräts ab. Bei der Auswahl der jeweiligen Prüfbedingungen müssen die Anforderungen der Produktnormen für Asphalt berücksichtigt werden. Die Anwendbarkeit dieses Dokumentes ist in den Produktnormen für Asphalt beschrieben. Die mit verschiedenen Prüfverfahren oder unter Anwendung verschiedener Ausfallkriterien erhaltenen Prüfergebnisse sind nicht notwendigerweise miteinander vergleichbar.

Mélanges bitumineux - Méthodes d'essai pour mélange hydrocarboné à chaud - Partie 24: Résistance à la fatigue

La présente Norme européenne spécifie les méthodes qui sont utilisées pour caractériser la fatigue des
mélanges bitumineux par différents types d'essais, dont des essais de flexion et des essais de traction directe
et indirecte. Les essais sont réalisés sur des matériaux bitumineux compactés, au moyen d'une charge
sinusoïdale ou d'une autre charge contrôlée, en utilisant différents types d'éprouvettes et de supports.
La procédure est utilisée :
a) pour classer les mélanges bitumineux selon leur résistance à la fatigue ;
b) comme guide comparatif des performances dans les structures de chaussée ;
c) pour obtenir des données permettant d'estimer le comportement structurel du matériau de la chaussée ;
et
d) pouvoir juger les résultats d'essais en fonction des spécifications des mélanges bitumineux.
Comme la présente Norme européenne n'impose pas un type de dispositif d'essai particulier, le choix précis
des conditions d'essai dépend des possibilités et de la plage de fonctionnement du dispositif utilisé. Pour le
choix des conditions d'essai spécifiques, il est nécessaire de respecter les critères des normes produit des
mélanges bitumineux. L’applicabilité du présent document est décrite dans les normes produit des mélanges
bitumineux.
Il n'est pas certain que les résultats obtenus selon les différentes méthodes d'essai ou en utilisant les
différents critères de rupture soient comparables.

Bitumenske zmesi - Preskusne metode za vroče asfaltne zmesi - 24. del: Odpornost proti utrujanju

Ta evropski standard določa metode za karakterizacijo utrujenosti bitumenskih zmesi z alternativnimi preskusi, skupaj s preskusi upogiba ter preskusi direktne in indirektne nateznosti. Preskusi se izvajajo na zgoščenem bitumenskem materialu pod sinusnim obremenjevanjem ali pod nadzorovanim obremenjevanjem z različnimi vrstami preskušancev in podpor. Postopek se uporablja za razvrščanje bitumenskih zmesi na podlagi odpornosti proti utrujanju kot smernica v zvezi z relativnimi lastnostmi v voziščni konstrukciji za pridobivanje podatkov z namenom vrednotenja strukturnega obnašanja na cesti ter za ocenjevanje preskusnih podatkov glede na specifikacije bitumenskih zmesi. Ker ta evropski standard ne predpisuje posebne preskusne naprave, je natančna izbira preskusnih pogojev odvisna od možnosti in delovnega obsega uporabljene naprave. Pri izbiri specifičnih preskusnih pogojev je treba upoštevati standarde za izdelke za bitumenske zmesi. Uporabnost tega dokumenta je opisana v standardih za izdelke za bitumenske zmesi. Rezultati, pridobljeni z različnimi preskusnimi metodami ali z uporabo različnih meril odpovedi, niso nujno primerljivi.

FprEN 12697-24:2011 (E) 4 Foreword This document (FprEN 12697-24:2011) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 227 “Road materials”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN. This document is currently submitted to the Unique Acceptance Procedure. This document will supersede EN 12697-24:2004+A1:2007. The significant changes from that document are:  clarified in the scope that tests using different failure criteria are not comparable;  definition of conventional criteria of fatigue for constant force deleted, leaving just constant displacement;  definitions of the average and standard deviation of the fatigue life of a series of specimens for the two-point and four-point bending tests on prismatic specimens are removed;  symbols for the frequency of the sinusoidal load applications and angular speed revised;  requirements on age and drying of specimens added in the main text and removed from the individual annexes;  limits on interpolation defined;  alternative criterion given in a note;  requirement for checking (rather than calibration) the test equipment added in the main text and removed from the individual annexes;  requirement added for the test report to include information on the chosen test method, the used testing equipment, results of the last check on calibration of the testing equipment and the age of the specimen at the time of testing;  the tolerance for the displacement of the trapezoidal specimen widened;  measurements on the three-point bending test on prismatic specimens started after fewer cycles;  note added on rotating the specimen in four-point bending test on prismatic specimens;  the optional requirement for choosing frequency spectrum of initial complex (stiffness) moduli removed from the four-point bending test on prismatic specimens;  the principle, equipment, procedure and calculations of the indirect tensile test on cylindrical specimens revised.

FprEN 12697-24:2011 (E) 8 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the methods for characterising the fatigue of bituminous mixtures by alternative tests, including bending tests and direct and indirect tensile tests. The tests are performed on compacted bituminous material under a sinusoidal loading or other controlled loading, using different types of specimens and supports. The procedure is used to rank bituminous mixtures on the basis of resistance to fatigue, as a guide to relative performance in the pavement, to obtain data for estimating the structural behaviour in the road and to judge test data according to specifications for bituminous mixtures. Because this European Standard does not impose a particular type of testing device, the precise choice of the test conditions depends on the possibilities and the working range of the used device. For the choice of specific test conditions, the requirements of the product standards for bituminous mixtures need to be respected. The applicability of this document is described in the product standards for bituminous mixtures. Results obtained from different test methods or using different failure criteria are not assured to be comparable. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
