Bituminous mixtures - Test methods for hot mix asphalt - Part 43: Resistance to fuel

Scope

This document specifies a test method to determine the resistance of a bituminous mixture or pavement to fuels. The procedure involves initial soaking of a test specimen made in the laboratory or cored from a pavement in a fuel, followed by a brushing period with a steel brush mounted in a Hobart mixer. The material loss of the specimen is a measure of the resistance to that fuel for that bituminous mixture.
