The Fourth International Symposium is being organized by RILEM Technical Committee
TC 101–BAT ‘Bitumen and Asphalt Testing’ and is entitled ‘The Role of Mechanical
Tests for the Characterization, Design and Quality Control of Bituminous Mixes’.
Previous RILEM Technical Committees have organized the following international
symposia and seminars dealing with bitumen and asphalt materials:
1968 in Dresden and 1978 in Darmstadt on bitumen and its testing.
1975 in Budapest and 1983 in Belgrade on asphalt materials and its testing.
1986 Scientific Seminar held in Olivet, France on Mix Design and Quality Control for
Bituminous Mixes.
1988 Residential Seminar held in Dubrovnik, Yugoslavia on the theme Formulation,
Control and Behaviour of Polymer-Bitumens for Waterproofing or for Road
Construction.
As a follow up to these meetings, the Fourth International Symposium has the purpose
of emphasizing the role of mechanical tests in the characterization, design and quality
control of bituminous mixes. Its basic objectives are:
• to evaluate all information enabling the assessment of methods, their advantages and
drawbacks and also the manner in which problems can be solved,
• to establish a better understanding and a documentation of results of research and
practical engineering in order to establish a common ground between research, road
authorities and contractors.
Thus a new way of thinking, that is, a new philosophy, is being advocated concerning the
role of mechanical testing of asphalt materials.
Traditional test methods help avoid large errors, but the significance of the results is
very restricted. Fundamental methods are more complex; they yield better, more
significant parameters but the application of these methods is limited to experts and
special laboratories. Consequently, every effort should be made to develop tests having
the advantages of both the traditional as well as modern methods and avoiding the
restrictions of both.
