EN 12697-34 is the Marshall test method for bituminous (asphalt) mixtures, giving Marshall stability, flow, and the Marshall quotient. To match this to your program, talk with our team.
What EN 12697-34 Covers
It determines the Marshall stability and flow of compacted asphalt specimens, used in mix design and quality control of asphalt.
How the Test Is Run
A compacted Marshall specimen is loaded diametrically in a Marshall head at a controlled rate, and the peak load (stability) and deformation (flow) are recorded.
Why It Matters
Marshall properties support asphalt mix design and acceptance; a Marshall loading head and accurate load and flow measurement are essential.
