Withdrawn Rationale:
The purpose of this guide was to provide advice for the selection of asphalt used in the construction of built-up roofing (BUR). This guide did not address the use of asphalt in waterproofing, cold-applied, or modified bituminous roofing.
Formerly under the jurisdiction of Committee D08 on Roofing and Waterproofing, this guide was withdrawn in July 2015 in accordance with section 10.5.3.1 of the Regulations Governing ASTM Technical Committees, which requires that standards shall be updated by the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.
