A CONTRIBUTION TO THE PROBLEMS OF TESTING PROCEDURES, IN PARTICULAR FLEXURAL TESTS, FOR BITUMINOUS SPECIMENS /IN GERMAN/

THE CONVENTIONAL METHODS OF TESTING STATIC AND DYNAMIC COMPRESSION AND BENDING FOR BITUMINOUS SPECIMENS ARE FOUND NOT ADEQUATE FOR DETERMINING THE MECHANICAL STRENGTHS OF SURFACINGS IF THE DEFORMATION RATE IS NOT TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT IN THE FLEXURAL TESTS. WHETHER HIGH-QUALITY BITUMINOUS SURFACINGS WILL BE LIABLE TO WAVE FORMATION OR SHEAR DEFORMATION IS ONE EXAMPLE. /FG/RRL/
