For open-graded mixes (i.e. SMA and OGFC) and absorptive mixtures of asphalt, the Saturated Surface Dry (SSD) method is inaccurate. Water infiltration in and out of the sample produces a lower than actual measurement for sample volume, higher calculated density, and a lower estimate of air voids. The CoreLok® system automatically seals these samples in a specially designed polymer bag and allows for the measurement of accurate water displacement tests. The present sealing methods, Wax and films, are labor-intensive and the results are extremely operator-dependent. \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=HFT9xlR2lnI\u0026amp;feature=youtu.be\" title=\"Bulk Gravity Instructional Video\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eClick this link for the Bulk Gravity instructional video\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 id=\"section-two\" class=\"header-fix\"\u003eMaximum Specific Gravity (Gmm)\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eMax Specific Gravity Specification ASTM D6857\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis method may be used as an alternative to the conventional “Rice Test” for the determination of maximum specific gravity of loose asphalt mixtures.

Two different mixes with 7% air voids can have different permeability performances on the field, depending on the interconnectivity of voids. However, these same mixes will never have the same porosity. For open-graded mixes, Porosity is a more meaningful measure of performance than % air voids.

This test uses LED light and detection system to measure the color change that may occur as a result of ASTM D 3625 (Boil Test Method). The Boil Test is an established test method that many state agencies require to quickly measure the adhesion strength of the asphalt binder to the aggregate surface. Currently, percent binder loss is determined visually by an operator.  Visual inspection is inaccurate and subjective. The InstroTek ACT reports a binder Loss Index value (L*) that is independent of operator judgment. Simply load the mixture, place the detection system on the sample and get your results in seconds. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ACT uses light reflection from the surface of the asphalt mixture to measure and quantify the color change of the asphalt mixture. The ACT quantifies the loss of asphalt binder without the need for visual inspection or technical judgment calls. Studies have shown there is a strong correlation between ACT results and AASHTO T283 indirect tensile strength ratio (TSR) values. The ACT can be calibrated to predict passing TSR value and allow users to evaluate the effects of gradation changes at the plant, changes in asphalt formulation, and other variations in the mix design that could affect TSR values.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ACT is simple to use, takes only minutes to set up, and is completely automatic. To perform a test, simply add the sample to the provided testing tray, place the detector (light sensor) on top of the sample, and press start. The ACT evaluates the mixture in seconds and displays the Color Index value on the screen.  Data can be stored and reviewed for further analysis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNow, asphalt practitioners have a fast, simple, and effective tool to determine the adhesion compatibility of mixtures and the effect of binder formulation and anti-strip additives on TSR values.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"InstroTek","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":5936454238240,"sku":"126.1000","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1245\/4913\/files\/ACT.png?v=1780923262"},{"product_id":"smart-jig","title":"Smart-Jig","description":"\u003ch2\u003eNEW LIFE FOR OLDER LOAD FRAMES*\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAASHTO T-283 (TSR Test), ASTM D4867, EN 12697-12, and IDEAL-CT ASTM D8225-19 (*Load Frame Must Meet the Requirements of ASTM D 8225)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Smart-Jig is a completely independent testing jig with the first integrated load cell, electronics, and Bluetooth connectivity, making capturing, reporting, and sharing data seamless.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003ePERFORM 3X THE TESTS WITH JUST 1 JIG!\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Smart-Jig is designed to perform three separate asphalt loading tests.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIDEAL-CT ASTM D8225-19\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIDEAL-RT (use in conjunction with \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instrotek.com\/products\/ideal-rt-rutting-jig\" title=\"IDEAL-RT Rutting Jig\"\u003eIDEAL-RT Jig™\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTSR Tensile Strength Ratio (AASHTO T-283, ASTM D4867, EN 12697-12)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSmart-Jig with \u003ca title=\"IDEAL-RT Rutting Jig\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instrotek.com\/products\/ideal-rt-rutting-jig\"\u003eIDEAL-RT Jig™\u003c\/a\u003e insert\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca title=\"IDEAL-RT Rutting Jig\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instrotek.com\/products\/ideal-rt-rutting-jig\"\u003e\u003cimg height=\"275\" width=\"367\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1245\/4913\/products\/RTJig_SmartJig_800x599_1ede547e-a256-4593-a0bf-0729ca77390a.jpg?v=1624884156\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SmartLoader Application allows users to quickly analyze test results from any \u003cspan style=\"display: inline !important; float: none; background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 21px; orphans: 2; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;\"\u003eWindows or Andriod \u003c\/span\u003esmartphone or tablet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg width=\"283\" height=\"231\" style=\"background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: \u0026amp;quot; helvetica neue\u0026amp;quot;,helvetica,arial,sans-serif; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; outline-color: #000000; outline-style: solid; outline-width: 1px; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;\" alt=\"Smart-TSR Tablet Report\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1245\/4913\/files\/Smart-TSR_tablet_large.jpg?v=1519359399\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eDon’t throw away your old load frame-\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e Older load frames have low data capture rates and outdated mechanical systems and plotters that are no longer supported.  Plotters are cumbersome to use, require selection of the right scale, use special graph paper and pens that are hard to find or dry out quickly, costing hundreds of dollars yearly to replace. \u003cem\u003e(*Please call InstroTek for Smart-Jig compatible load frames)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eBuilt for today \u0026amp; tomorrow's asphalt tests-\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e The Smart-Jig uses integrated high-precision load cell and high-quality electronics to capture data at 40 Hz.

InSight combines high-resolution imaging with AI-powered analysis to reveal how asphalt specimens deform, strain, and crack throughout the test—giving engineers a deeper understanding of mix performance and greater confidence in their results.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eDesigned for Everyday BMD Testing\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUnlike research-focused imaging systems, InSight was developed specifically for routine asphalt laboratory testing. Dual high-resolution cameras, integrated lighting, and intelligent software capture both sides of every specimen during testing, producing synchronized video, advanced strain measurements, and visual analysis that complement traditional BMD data. InSight is compatible with major BMD testing frames from InstroTek, Humboldt, Troxler, Pine, Controls, and Matest, making it easy to enhance your existing equipment. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eBetter Insight.

High-density strain mapping and detailed crack analysis help identify crack initiation, deformation patterns, and test variability that may otherwise go unnoticed. The result is more meaningful data to support improved asphalt mix evaluation and greater confidence in Balanced Mix Design testing. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1245\/4913\/files\/Standard_dot_config_for_IDEAL-CT.jpg?v=1784749125\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStandard dot configuration for IDEAL-CT\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eInSight cameras allow you to measure vertical and horizontal \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003edeformation, speed, and strain for every selected point.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDesigned specifically for routine Balanced Mix Design (BMD) testing\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDual high-resolution cameras with integrated lighting\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAI-powered image analysis software\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSimultaneous imaging of both sides of the specimen\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMeasures horizontal and vertical deformation, strain, displacement, and speed\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHigh-density strain field visualization\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHigh-resolution crack-tip imaging with telephoto lens\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSynchronized video playback with test results\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eExpanded BMD analysis beyond traditional load-curve data\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCompatible with major BMD testing frames from InstroTek, Humboldt, Troxler, Pine, Controls, and Matest\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBenefits\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGain a deeper understanding of asphalt mixture performance\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVisualize crack initiation and propagation throughout the test\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIdentify sources of test variability with greater confidence\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eComplement traditional BMD results with advanced visual analysis\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eImprove confidence in IDEAL-CT, I-FIT, and other BMD tests\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEliminate the limitations of fixed-point displacement measurements\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAdd advanced imaging to your existing BMD testing equipment\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMake more informed pavement material decisions\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"InstroTek","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49062920814747,"sku":"MM-9725","price":9882.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1245\/4913\/files\/InSight.png?v=1784913005"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1245\/4913\/collections\/2-asphalt-large_1.jpg?v=1784216546","url":"https:\/\/www.instrotek.com\/collections\/asphalt.oembed?page=2","provider":"InstroTek, Inc.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
