Ductility Test of Bitumen: Why Flexibility Matters in Pavement Design
Bitumen is what keeps our roads together; therefore, it needs to be strong and flexible. Roads have to deal with heat, cold, traffic, and continual pressure. If the material can’t stretch, it might shatter. That’s why it’s vital to measure the ductility test of bitumen. It illustrates how far bitumen can extend before it breaks. […]
