This European Standard was approved by CEN on 18 November 2019.

CEN members are bound to comply with the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations which stipulate the conditions for giving this
European Standard the status of a national standard without any alteration. Up-to-date lists and bibliographical references
concerning such national standards may be obtained on application to the CEN-CENELEC Management Centre or to any CEN
member.
This European Standard exists in three official versions (English, French, German). A version in any other language made by
translation under the responsibility of a CEN member into its own language and notified to the CEN-CENELEC Management
Centre has the same status as the official versions.

CEN members are the national standards bodies of Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia,
Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway,

European foreword
This document (EN 12697-34:2020) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 227 “Road
materials”, the secretariat of which is held by BSI.
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an
identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by August 2020, and conflicting national standards shall
be withdrawn at the latest by August 2020.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. CEN shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
This document supersedes EN 12697-34:2012.
The following is a list of significant technical changes since the previous edition:
— the title no longer makes the method exclusively for hot mix asphalt;
— [ge] editorial update according to current standard template;
— [Clause 2] titles for test methods EN 12697-series adjusted, reference EN ISO 7500-1:2018, Metallic
materials — Verification of static uniaxial testing machines — Part 1: Tension/compression testing
machines — Verification and calibration of the force-measuring system (ISO 7500 1:2018) replaced
by: EN ISO 7500-1:2018, Metallic materials — Calibration and verification of static uniaxial testing
machines — Part 1: Tension/compression testing machines — Calibration and verification of the
force-measuring system (ISO 7500-1:2018);
— [6.1.1 and 6.2.4] NOTEs modified according to ISO/IEC Directives – Part 2:2016, 24.5;
— [7.1] correction of Formula (1). Factor v realigned as exponent;
— [Bibliography] EN 12697-35 deleted. Referred to in Clause 2 Normative references.
A list of all parts in the EN 12697 series can be found on the CEN website.
According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organisations of the
following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria,
Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland,
Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Republic of
North Macedonia, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and the

1 Scope
This document specifies a test method for determining the stability, flow and the Marshall quotient
values of specimens of bituminous mixtures mixed according to EN 12697-35 and prepared using the
impact compactor method of test EN 12697-30. It is limited to dense graded asphalt concrete and hot
rolled asphalt.
