IRC SP 101 — Interim Guidelines for Warm Mix Asphalt
IRC SP 101-2014 provides interim guidelines for the production, design, and construction of Warm Mix Asphalt (WMA) pavements in India. It addresses the use of additives and technologies that enable asphalt mixing and laying at temperatures at least 30°C lower than conventional hot mix asphalt, aiming to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, fuel consumption, and health hazards to workers. These guidelines are intended for agencies and contractors adopting WMA technology, offering quality assurance protocols, plant requirements, and collaborative frameworks to support sustainable pavement construction.
