Abstract
The recycling of reclaimed asphalt pavement is of significant economic and environmental benefits. In this case, however, the satisfactory performance of the final product needs scientific planning of the mixture and thorough quality control. Before its use, a number of tests must be performed to verify that the binder meets the relevant requirements and can be used in asphalt mixtures. The binder characteristics in the reclaimed asphalt pavement and the expected properties of the binder blend in the new asphalt mixture must be known. For its prediction and calculation, a European standard offers the calculation of the penetration or softening point of the binder blend in the mixture with reclaimed asphalt content. However, in some countries, the determination of paving grade bitumen types (categories) is based not on dynamic viscosity measured with DSR instrument, so other validated test and calculation methods are in force. A viscosity-based method has not yet been validated for paving grade bitumens standardized on a penetration basis, although this method is more advantageous in many aspects when monitoring daily production processes; it is much shorter and requires less material than measuring softening point or penetration. The article deals with the measurement of the dynamic viscosity of bitumen blends of asphalt mixtures made using reclaimed asphalts, determined with a dynamic shear rheometer at different frequencies (0.1–10.0 Hz sweep). Furthermore, the relationships between the different composition ratios of national paving grade bitumens classified on the bases of penetration level and bitumens from reclaimed asphalt pavement are examined.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
