    The apparatus for the Marshall Stability test consists of the following:
    1. Specimen mould assembly comprising mould cylinders 10.16cm diameter by 6.35cm height, base plate and extension collars.
    2. Specimen extractor for extracting the compacted specimen from the mould. A suitable bar is required to transfer load from the extension collar to the upper proving ring attachment while extracting the specimen.
    3. Compaction hammer having a flat circular tamping face 4.5kg sliding weight constructed to provide a free fall of 457 mm.
    4. Compaction pedestal consisting of a 20×20×45 cm wooden block capped with 30×30×2.5 cm MS plate to hold the mould assembly in position during compaction. Mould holder is provided consisting of spring tension device designed to hold compaction mould in place on compaction pedestal.
    5. Breaking head: this consists of upper and lower cylindrical segments or test heads having a inside radius curvature of 5 cm. the longer segment is mounted on a base having two perpendicular guide rods which facilitate insertion in the holes of upper test segment.
    6. Loading Machine: It is provided with a gear system to lift the upward direction. Pre-calibrated proving ring of 5 tonnes capacity is fixed on the upper end of the machine, specimen contained in the test head is placed in between the base and the proving ring.
    The load jack produces a uniform vertical moment of 5 cm per minute. Machine is capable of reversing its moment downward also. This facilitates adequate space for placing test head system after one specimen has been tested.
    7. Flow meter consist of guide, sieve and gauge. The activating pin of the gauge slides inside the guide sleeve with a slight amount of frictional resistance. Least count of 0.025 mm is adequate.
    The flow value refers to the total vertical upward movement from the initial position at zero load to value at maximum load. The dial gauge of the flow meter should be able to measure accurately the total vertical moment upward.
    In addition to above the following general equipments are also required:
    Oven or hot plate
    Water bath
    Thermometers of range up to 200oC with sensitivity of 2.5oC and
    Miscellaneous equipments like containers, mixing and handling tools etc.\
    Preparation of Test Specimen
    1. 1200 grams of aggregates blended in the desired proportions is measured and heated in the oven to the mixing temperature.
    2. Bituminous mix temprature 150 degree
    3. The materials are mixed in a heated pan with heated mixing tools.
    4. The mixture is then placed in a heated Marshall mould with a collar and base and the mixture is spaded around the sides of the mould. A filter paper is placed under the sample and on top of the sample.
    5.The mould is placed in the Marshall compaction pedestal.
    6. The material is compacted with 75 blows of the hammer (or as specified), and the sample is inverted and compacted in the the other face with same number of blows.
    7. After compaction, the mould is inverted. With collar on the bottom, the base is removed and the sample is extracted by pushing it out the extractor.
    8. The sample is allowed to stand for the 24 hours to cool.
    9. The mass of the sample in air and when submerged is used to measure the density of specimen, so as to allow, calculation of the void properties.
    Sample no , Weight in air(g), Weight in water(g), Bulk Density gm/cc
    Test Procedure
    Specimens are heated to 60 ±1oC either in a water bath for 30-40 minutes or in an oven for minimum of 2 hours.
    The flow meter is placed over one of the post and is adjusted to read zero.
    Load is applied at a rate of 50 mm per minute until the maximum load reading is obtained.
