Summary of Test Method3.1 The transverse-aggregate spread rate is determined bythe use of a series of rubber pads laid side by side width-wiseacross the pavem

Det

16、ermination of Transverse Spread Rate6.1 Place the rubber mats side by side width-wise on thepavement with the grooves perpendicular to the centerline (Fig.1). The number of rubber mats to be used shall be equal to thewidth of aggregate distribution to be monitored.6.2 Tare one container for each mat

17、 to be used. If thecontainer has a lid, tare the container with the lid. Designatethis mass as B.6.3 Drive the aggregate spreader over the pads with thegates open to allow the aggregate to fall onto the rubber mats.Open the gates a minimum of 2.44 m (8 ft) before reaching therubber mats. This allows

18、 time for the transverse-aggregatedistribution to stabilize.6.4 The aggregate spreader shall be operated in the mannerintended for use during construction. Speed and gear settingsshall be representative of anticipated construction use.6.5 After the aggregate spreader has passed over the rubbermats,

19、carefully brush from the edges toward the center of eachrubber mat. Fold each mat lengthwise into a 0.914-m (3-ft)long funnel. Pour the aggregate into a tared, and labeledcontainer. Repeat this procedure until the aggregate from eachof the mats has been placed in individual containers.6.6 Determine

20、the mass of each container of aggregate.Designate this mass as A.7. Moisture Content of Aggregate (Optional)7.1 When the moisture content of the aggregate at the timeof construction is required, obtain the samples using the stepsin 6.1 through 6.6. Place samples for moisture content deter-mination i

21、n a sealed container within 5 min of spreading theaggregate.7.2 Determine the mass of each sealed container of moistaggregate within4hofobtaining the sample. Subtract the massof the container to determine the mass of the moist aggregate.7.3 Determine the moisture content of the aggregate inaccordanc

22、e with Test Method C 566.8. Aggregate Gradation (Optional)8.1 Combine the aggregate from all individual containersinto one container. Mix aggregate through riffle splitter at leasttwice to ensure adequate mixing.8.2 Oven dry to a constant mass.8.3 Perform sieve analysis according to Test Method C 13

23、6.9. Calculation9.1 (SI Units) The aggregate spread rate is determined bythe following:S 5C A 2 B!LW(1)where:A = mass of aggregate and container, g,B = mass of container, g,L = length of mat, mm,S = aggregate spread rate in kg/m2,W = width of mat, mm, andC = 1000, a constant for unit conversion.9.2

24、(Inch-Pound Units) The aggregate spread rate is deter-mined by the following:S 5 CA 2 BLW!9453.6(2)where:A = mass of aggregate and container, g,B = mass of container, g,L = length of mat, ft,S = aggregate spread rate in lbs/yd2,W = width of mat, ft, andC = 0.01984, a constant for inch-pound unit con

25、version.10. Report10.1 Report the following information:10.2 Moisture content of aggregate, if determined,FIG. 1 Layout of MatsD 5624 02 (2007)210.3 Aggregate gradation, if determined, and whether theaggregate was pre-coated, pre-wet or dry, and10.4 The aggregate quantity in kg/m2(lbs/yd2) for each

26、mat.Report results from left to right from the drivers perspective.11. Precision and Bias11.1 Preliminary testing indicates that the reproducibility(within-laboratory) standard deviation for this test is 0.47kg/m2(0.86 lbs/yd2). Because test results are dependent uponindividual pieces of equipment,

27、local requirements for opera-tion of equipment, equipment speed, as well as the fact thatthere is no means of providing a standard material for testing,no estimate of reproducibility (between-laboratory standarddeviation) can be developed. This precision statement is onlyfor the purposes of defining

28、 the ability of one technician tomeasure the transverse spread rate for any given set of testingconditions.NOTE 2Precision estimated from data reported in “Evaluation of 1989Chip Seal Test Sections on US95A Between Wabuska and Yerington,Nevada”, University of Nevada, Reno report to Nevada Department

29、 ofTransportation, June, 1991.11.2 Preliminary testing also suggests that standard devia-tions will vary depending on whether pre-wet or pre-coatedaggregate is used. However, this has not been proven and moreresearch is being done on this subject.11.3 BiasSince there is no accepted reference materia

30、lsuitable for determining the bias no statement on the bias ofthis test method is being made.12.
