PART 7 DETERMINATION OF BINDER TESr.
(CED41 )
FOREWORD
This Indian Standard ( Part 7 ) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards, after the draft
finalized by the Water-Proofing and Damp-Proofing Sectional Committee had been approved by
the Civil Engineering Division Council.
Bitumen felts may be of different types depending upon the raw material used and their construc-
tion. IS 1322 : 1993 'Specification for bitumen felts for water proofing and damp-proofing (fourth
revision )' and IS 7193 : 1993 'Specification for glass fibre base coal tar pitch and bitumen felts
(first revision )', cover bitumen felts of hessian based and glass fibre base respectively. The
above standards require, amongst other requirements, detailed testing of each of these products.
Various methods of test relating to each product for determination of physical properties have
been included in the separate standards. All types of felts have to satisfy some common essential
physical requirements for which methods of test are same. A series of standards covering
methods of test have, therefore, been formulated to cover the determination of various physical
requirements of bitumen felt. This standard covers determination of binder content. Other
parts of this standard are as follows:
Part 1 Breaking strength test
Part 2 Pliability test
Part 3 Storage sticking test
Part 4 Pressure head test
Part 5 Heat resistance test
Part 6 Water absorption test
'The composition of the technical committee responsible for the formulation of this standard is
given in Annex A.
For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with,
the final value, observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test, shall be rounded off in
accordance with IS 2 : 1960 'Rules for rounding off numerical values ( revised)'. The number
of significant places retained in the rounded off value should be the same as that of the specified
value in this standard.
