New European Asphalt Standards

New European Asphalt Standards
Robert Gossling / Bob Overett September 07 - NEW ASPHALT STANDARDS 1 JAN 2008
What's happening? From 1 January 2008 specifications for asphalt will change Out go BS4987 and BS594 product standards And in come European standards BS EN13108 parts 1 to 8, 21 and 22 PLUS BS 594987 for transport and installation With PD 6691, the UK guidance document The SHW, test methods and other standards ALL change at the same time
What does this mean for contracting/ installers/ customers?
They order a product to BS EN 13108 There is no need to be supply plant specific with the order They install the product to BS 594987/ SHW/ Defence Estates specs/ other specs BS594987 becomes the reference spec for installation together with PD 6691, the UK guidance document
BS EN 13108 family of standards

BS EN 13108 - 1 BS EN 13108 - 2 BS EN 13108 - 3 BS EN 13108 - 4 BS EN 13108 - 5 BS EN 13108 - 6 BS EN 13108 - 7 BS EN 13108 - 8 asphalt concrete asphalt concrete for very thin layers soft asphalt (Nordic countries) hot rolled asphalt stone mastic asphalt mastic asphalt porous asphalt reclaimed asphalt
BS EN 13108 - 20 type testing BS EN 13108 - 21 factory production control (Products in bold text are available from Lafarge)
BS EN 13108 key differences Covers only the product in the truck, not the installation Now a target composition rather than a recipe approach Compliance tolerances are given in FPC (EN 13108 : 21) Binder content is adjusted for aggregate density No corrections for binder or filler content in base/ binder courses it is target +/- the tolerance
BS EN 13108 key differences More rigorous product conformity Q-Value replaced with Operating Compliance Level (OCL) Introduces a mean deviation from target (Product Consistency) Still tested and reported by technical
Attestation of Conformity is required by the Producer External accreditation still required (ISO 9001:2000) for Factory Production Control (FPC) and Sector Scheme 14. Products require Initial Type Testing before they can go on sale
Product approval process

Current 2007 1 Propose composition 2 Evaluate/ approve 3 Site trial(s) 929 etc 4 Testing 5 Evaluation 6 Approval 7 Commence supply New 2008 onwards 1 Attestation of Conformity 2 Initial Type Testing 3 Sector Scheme 14 + FPC 4 CE marking by notified body (NoBos) if required in future not a requirement now 5 Commence supply Type Test is Mix specific - valid for five years Transferable from plant to plant and contract to contract

PD 6691:2007 Each product will have a nominated target composition to which conformance tolerances will be applied Binder content - its expression and the method of calculation based on the relative density of aggregate back calculation formula Annexes - give detailed information and guidance in the form of examples on product specifications Annex A1 Asphaltic Concrete and replaces BS4987 Annex A2 Hot Rolled Asphalt and replaces BS594 Annex A5 Stone Mastic Asphalt
PD 6691:2007
Use of Reclaimed asphalt Classification system used in EN 13108-8 for foreign matter and binder properties Recommended maximum of 10% in S/C and 50% in bases and binder courses More than 10% in S/C & more than 20% in bases and binder courses - recovered binder from the mixture - penetration testing

BS 594987 UK only therefore its a British standard Combination of BS 594 : Part 2 and BS 4987 : Part 2 both of which are withdrawn Realignment with SHW 900 series Includes protocols for type testing Includes transport, laying, compaction
BS 594987 Transport and laying
Informative Annexes: Annex A Delivery and rolling temperatures Annex B Rates of spread including HRA, SMA and EME2
Informative Type Testing protocols: Annex C DBM/HDM/HMB design voids (SHW 929) Annex D DBM/HDM/HMB resistance to permanent deformation (SHW 952) Annex E EME2 design and properties (TRL 636)

BS 594987 is intended as the BASELINE document for all applications including: - roads - car parks - footways & cycleways - play areas etc Scheme 16 for Asphalt Laying - BS 594987 becomes the main Normative reference
