2、ates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the U.
3、S.Department of Defense.1.Scope1.1 This test method covers the sieve analysis of mineralfillers used in asphalt paving mixtures.1.2 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standard.The values stated ineach system may not be exact equivalents;therefore
4、,eachsystem shall be used independently of the other.Combiningvalues from the two systems may result in nonconformancewith the standard.NOTE1Regarding sieves,per Specification E11,“the values stated inSI units shall be considered standard for the dimensions of the wire clothopenings and the diameter
5、 of the wires used in the wire cloth.”When sievemesh sizes are referenced,the alternate inch-pound designations areprovided for information purposes and enclosed in parentheses.1.3 The text of this standard references notes and footnoteswhich provide explanatory material.These notes and footnotes(ex
6、cluding those in tables and figures)shall not be consideredas requirements of the standard.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices
