THE MOST RUGGED FRAME ON THE MARKET
The official description of balanced mix design is:
“Asphalt mix design using performance tests on appropriately conditioned specimens that address multiple modes of distress taking into consideration mix aging, traffic, climate and location within the pavement structure.”
Dave Newcomb probably explains it best as follows:
“A balanced mix design (BMD) sets a maximum asphalt content based on the rutting criterion and a minimum asphalt content based on cracking criterion.”
The Cox & Sons Balanced Mixed Frame 9500 is able to perform the following tests:
- SCB AASHTO(I-FIT)
- SCB ASTM(Louisiana)
- IDEAL-CT ASTM
- Tack Bond Shear AASHTO
- Marshall
- TSR
Uniquely amongst competing frames on the market the results are calculated on the machine. There is no need to copy to a USB and process on a PC, although the data is captured for anyone wanting to perform in-depth research.
- Made in the US
- No messy hydraulics
- No need to transfer data to PC
- Suitable for hardworking lab environments
