Bitumen and bituminous binders - Accelerated long-term ageing conditioning by a Pressure Ageing Vessel (PAV); German version EN 14769:2012
Bitumen und bitumenhaltige Bindemittel - Beschleunigte Langzeit-Alterung mit einem Druckalterungsbehälter (PAV); Deutsche Fassung EN 14769:2012
Overview
This European Standard specifies an accelerated ageing/conditioning procedure for bituminous binders. The procedure involves ageing trays of binder at elevated temperatures under pressurised conditions in a pressure ageing vessel (PAV). The specimens submitted to the ageing procedure have previously been brought into the condition in which they would be used in road building. If there is the likelihood of volatile components being present in a binder, this procedure shall not be used. The committee responsible for this standard is Joint Working Group NA 062-03-32 GA "Bitumen; Prüfverfahren und Anforderungen für die Bindemittel" ("Bitumen; test methods and specifications of binders") at the Materials Testing Standards Committee (NMP) and the German Civil Engineering Standards Committee (NABau) at DIN.
