Create asphalt binder specification
Choose M320 and M332 as the starting point for a specification. If the specification is for asphalt emulsions, choose the appropriate starting place for the emulsified asphalt specification.
Setting up specifications for M332
When you select "default", LASTRADA will apply the M332 specified tests. Add in all your min and max parameters and critical temperatures.
Regions with plus specifications
Add the plus parameters, such as forced docility and elastic recovery, and they will show up in the specification parameters. The minimum and maximum can be adjusted in those as well. Once this process is complete, the specification is ready for use on one or more product declarations.
VIDEO TRANSCRIPT
With LASTRADA's enhanced asphalt binder specifications, you can trust that your testing scope will be exactly what you need. AASHTO M320 and M332 specifications are present, we understand that different projects and regions have unique requirements and standards. So, we also support plus specifications, ensuring accurate testing and reporting that aligns with your specific needs, and in this Lightning Demo, I will show you how to create specifications that meet your specific needs.
In order to create your asphalt binder specification simply choose our specification module and create a new specification name, you also have the option to give it a standard name, and then you choose the type of specification from the drop-down list. in this case, I'm going to choose M332. Then I go into the test and choose default, after choosing your default specifications, you can see that it has selected all of the M332 specifications. At this point, you can go back in and set up your specification per M332, adding in all of your min and max parameters and your temperatures. If you are in a region that requires plus specifications, you simply need to go back into your test and add any plus specifications, such as force ductility or elastic recovery, and they will show up in your specification parameters, and you can add your min and max values and temperatures for those. Also, once your specification is set up, you are ready to set up a declaration. As you can see this process is easy and simple for any specification parameters that you need to do.
