Remove the specimen from the water bath, and place it in the lower segment of the breaking head. (The testing head temperatu~e shall be maintained between 70 and 100” F., using a water bnth when necessary.) Place the \ upper segment of the breaking he:lci cm the specimen, and place the complete assembly in position on the testing machine (figs.

100-1 and 100-6, respectivciy, show the Marshall test apparatus and the Universal testing machine using the Marshall break- ing head ) . When using the Marshal] ap- paratus, place the adjusted flowmeter in position over one of the wide rods, and hold the sleeve firmly against the upper seg- ment of breaking head while load is applied. When using the Universal machine, an ex- tensometer is normally used. WQ.4men In cubic Volumc 1 d Approximate thkkn- of Cwrrlmti,,u cent imet G -n nwlmsn in Ineti .
