AASHTO R 116-23

This standard practice describes the testing required to determine the sealant grade (SG) of a hot-poured asphalt crack sealant according to AASHTO M 338, Table 1. It presents two approaches. In the first, the SG of an unknown hot-poured asphalt crack sealant is determined. In the second, the nominal SG of a hot-poured asphalt crack sealant is verified. It also provides an estimate of the time required to complete a single test sequence.

This standard was formerly designated as provisional practice PP 85.
