This test is used to determine the maximum binder content for a dosage of micro-coating or asphalt slurry. The process is very simple, a test piece is prepared in standard measurements of length and width, then the sample is compacted by repetitive displacement of a rubber wheel under load conditions and number of pre-cycles. defined. A certain portion of duly graded sand is applied to the sample, which is subjected to new cycles. Adhesion of the sand to the specimen makes it possible to determine the maximum binder content, in order to avoid exudation caused by traffic. Stratura Asfaltos is a pioneer in high-performance asphalt mixing technology and also in the structural and functional assessment of pavements, and has LWT testing equipment to meet the requirements of the road community.
