       Notes - general: The satisfactory performance of a bituminous layer is
                        dependent on the achievement of adequte compaction
                        and, in the case of a hot rolled asphalt wearing
                        course, the correct embedment of the hot rolled
                        asphalt wearing course, the correct embedment of the
                        chippings.  The property controlling these factors in
                        materials is the mix workability.  In this report, the
                        concept of workability is defined, the method which
                        have been proposed to quantify it are reviewed, and
                        the results of a laboratory investigation into one
                        method, the tripod penetrometer test, are described.
