Jun 27, 2017 The asphalt content of a mixture is measured by extraction test (AASHTO T 164) or with a nuclear gauge (ASTM D 4125). The extraction test involves adding a solvent to the asphalt mixture to dissolve the asphalt cement. The asphalt cement and solvent are then passed through a piece of filter paper, but the aggregate is now allowed to pass.

The durability potential of bituminous mixtures may be defined as the resistance of the mixture to the continuous and combined damaging effects of water. High durability potential usually implies that the mechanical behavior of the mixture will endure for a long service life. Now, flexible pavement, made of hot-mix asphalt (HMA) with the addition of the reclaimed asphalt
