ASTM D6648 Standard Test Method for Determining the Flexural Creep Stiffness of Asphalt Binder Using the Bending Beam Rheometer (BBR) -- eLearning Course
About the Course
This course covers the conditioning of asphalt binders to simulate accelerated aging (oxidation) by means of pressurized air and elevated temperature.
The course takes approximately 1 hour to complete and includes instructional video content, interactive knowledge checks, and a self-grading quiz. Downloadable resources include a pdf of the standard.
Learning Outcomes
By the end of this course, you should be able to:
- Recall the steps for preparation of apparatus, molds, and test specimens.
- Identify the requirements for daily verification and standardization of the BBR components.
- Describe the procedure for the determination of the creep stiffness or compliance and m-value of asphalt binders by means of a bending beam rheometer.
Certificate and CEUs
CEUs: .1 or 1 PDH
Certificate: A certificate is available upon successful completion of the course and an 80% or higher score on the exam.
