Asphalt Binder Testing at Low Temperature: Three-Point Bending Beam Test in Dynamic Shear Rheometer
A novel Three-Point Bending Beam Test (3-PBT) using a Dynamic Shear Rheometer (DSR) with linear drive motor is introduced for testing asphalt binder at low temperature conditions. This 3-PBT in DSR can be used as surrogate for Bending Beam Rheometer (BBR)
