EVS-EN 12697-10:2017

This European Standard describes three test methods for characterizing the compactability of a
bituminous mix, by the relation between its density or void content and the compaction energy applied
to it, using an impact (Marshall) compactor, gyratory compactor, or a vibratory compactor.
This European Standard applies to bituminous mixtures, both those prepared in laboratory and those
resulting sampled from plant produced mixtures. The results of the test method serve to supplement
the results of mixture design.
