3、s of the U.S. Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the sieve analysis of mineralfillers used in asphalt paving mixtures.1.2 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated ineach system may not be exact equival

4、ents; therefore, eachsystem shall be used independently of the other. Combiningvalues from the two systems may result in nonconformancewith the standard.NOTE 1Regarding sieves, per Specification E11, “the values stated inSI units shall be considered standard for the dimensions of the wire clothopeni

5、ngs and the diameter of the wires used in the wire cloth.” When sievemesh sizes are referenced, the alternate inch-pound designations areprovided for information purposes and enclosed in parentheses.1.3 The text of this standard references notes and footnoteswhich provide explanatory material. These

6、 notes and footnotes(excluding those in tables and figures) shall not be consideredas requirements of the standard.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate

7、safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.5 This international standard was developed in accor-dance with internationally recognized principles on standard-ization established in the Decision on Principles for theDevelopment of Internationa

Apparatus5.1 Balance or Scale, readable to 0.01 g and conforming tothe requirements of Guide D4753, Class GP-1, with a mini-mum capacity of 200 g.5.2 Sie

16、ves, conforming to Specification E11 with nominalopening sizes of 75-m (No. 200), 300-m (No. 50), 600-m(No. 30), and 1.18-mm (No. 16).5.3 OvenAn oven of sufficient size, capable of maintain-ing a uniform temperature of 110 6 5 C 230 6 9 F.6. Test Sample6.1 Obtain the sample for test in accordance wi

17、th therequirements of Specification D242 and reduce to testing sizein accordance with Practice C702. Use a minimum of 100 g ofdry material for each sieve analysis.7. Procedure7.1 Dry the test sample to constant mass at a temperature of110 6 5 C 230 6 9 F and determine the mass to the nearest0.01 g.7

18、.2 After drying and determining the mass, place the testsample on the 1.18-mm (No. 16) sieve, which shall be nestedabove the 600-m (No. 30), 300-m (No. 50), and 75-m (No.200) sieves. Wash the material by means of a stream of waterfrom a faucet (Note 2). Continue the washing until the watercoming thr

19、ough the sieve is clear (Note 3). Dry the residuefrom each sieve to constant mass at a temperature of 110 65 C 230 6 9 F (Note 4). Calculate the mass of materialretained on each sieve as a percentage of the original sample.NOTE 2A spray nozzle or a piece of rubber tubing attached to a waterfaucet ma

20、y be used for the washing. The velocity of the water, which maybe increased by pinching the tubing, must be controlled to prevent loss ofany of the sample by splashing over the sides of the sieves.Aspray nozzle,utilizing a pressure gage, is also used in Test Methods C110 and TestMethod C786 for test

21、ing hydrated lime and Portland cement, respectively.NOTE 3Take care to avoid accumulation of water on the 75-m (No.200) sieve, because it may become clogged and the operation cannot becompleted within a reasonable period.NOTE 4Some material passes the 75-m (No. 200) sieve on drysieving that did not

22、pass during the washing operation. When desired,additional information may be obtained by dry sieving the portion of thesample retained on the 75-m (No. 200) sieve, in accordance with TestMethod D422.8. Report8.1 Report the results of the sieve analysis as the totalpercentage passing each sieve, exp

23、ressed to the nearest 0.5 %.9. Precision and Bias49.1 PrecisionThe estimates of precision for this testmethod are shown in Table 1. They are based on results of aninterlaboratory testing program where replicable samples offour different mineral fillers were tested in 20 laboratoriesusing this test m

24、ethod. The materials tested ranged from acoarse mineral filler, that had about 93 % passing the 600-m(No. 30) sieve and 51 % passing the 75-m (No. 200), to finermineral fillers that had about 99 % passing the 300-m (No.50) sieve and 95 % passing the 75-m (No. 200) sieve.9.2 BiasBias has not been det

25、ermined since there is noacceptable reference for determining the bias for the procedurein this test method.10.
