ASTM D4123-82(1995)

Withdrawn Rationale:

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 104F (5, 25 (Note 1), and 40C) 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.

Formerly under the jurisdiction of Committee D04 on Road and Paving Materials, this test method was withdrawn in December 2003 in accordance with section 10.5.3.1 of the Regulations Governing ASTM Technical Committees, which requires that standards shall be updated by the end of the eighth year since the last approval date.

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.

1.2 This standard may involve hazardous materials, operations, and equipment. This standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
