Abstract:
This training course is ideal for persons currently testing asphalt with a Dynamic Shear Rheometer (DSR) and for those planning on adding a DSR to their lab in the future.
The course will cover toe following areas:
- History of the SHRP program and AASHTO T315 test method
- Purpose and content of new asphalt test methods such as MSCR
- Good laboratory practices for sound DSR measurements
Attendees will leave with a better understanding of what the DSR is indicating about their samples, important operational considerations, and how to prepare for AASHTO/AMRL certification for their DSR.
Anton Paar will have a Dynamic Shear Rheometer at their booth in the GCC exhibition for course attendees to experience.
