Bitumen and bituminous binders: determination of equiviscous temperature based on low shear viscosity using a dynamic shear rheometer in low frequency oscillation mode

This draft European standard describes the determination of the EquiViscous Temperature (EVT) on bitumen or bituminous binder samples, based on a defined practice related Low Shear Viscosity (LSV), using a Dynamic Shear Rheometer (DSR) in low frequency oscillation mode. The EquiViscous Temperature (EVT) measured by this binder is to be seen as a performance indicator for the partial contribution of the bituminous binder to rutting resistance of the compacted asphalt mix course under service conditions at elevated pavement temperatures.
