1.1 This test method covers procedures for preparing and testing laboratory-fabricated or field-recovered cores of bituminous mixtures to determine resilient modulus values using the repeated-load indirect tension test. The procedure described covers a range of temperatures, loads, loading frequencies, and load durations. The recommended test series consists of testing at 41, 77 (Note 1), and 104°F (5, 25 (Note 1), and 40°C) at one or more loading frequencies, for example, at 0.33, 0.5, and 1.0 Hz for each temperature. This recommended series will result in nine test values for one specimen which can be used to evaluate the overall resilient behavior of the mixture.
Note 1-Ambient laboratory temperature may be substituted as appropriate.
