COMPUTATION OF APPOROXIMATE BITUMEN PERCENTAGE

Specification : Ref. Page No.-56, Section -5, Part-B, Clause No.-4.05 of Manual Series No.-2 .
The Computational formula of approximate Bitumen content in mix is
P = 0.035a + 0.045 b + Kc + F

Where, P = ApproximateBitumen content of mix, Percentage by weight of mix


a = Percentage of mineral aggregate retained on 2.36 mm sieve
b = Percentage of mineral aggregate passing the 2.36 mm sieve and retained on 0.075 mm sieve
c = Percentage of mineral aggregate passing 0.075 mm sieve
K = 0.150 , 11-15 percent passing 0.075 mm sieve
0.180 , 6-10 percent passing 0.075 mm sieve
0.200 , 5 percent or less passing on 0.075 mm sieve
F = 0 to 2 percent Based on absorbtion of light or heavy aggregate. In absense of other data , a value of
0.7 is suggested

As per Job mix Trial No.-I, the approximate Bitumen percentage is


P = 0.035a + 0.045 b + Kc + F
P = {( 0.035 x 47.95 ) + ( 0.045 x 46.46 ) + ( 0.180 x 5.59 )+ 0.70 )}
P = 5.480

As per Manual Series No.-2 , Page No.- 62 , Clause No.- 5.03 , " Tests should be planned on the basis of 1/2 percent
increments of asphalt content , with at least two asphalt contents above the expeted design value and at least two below
this value "

So, Tests mould will be prepared on 4.680 % , 5.180 % , 5.480 % , 5.980 % & 6.480
