The laboratory at the Technical Centre of Estonian Roads now performs a test measuring adhesion between emulsion and aggregate:

• EVS-EN 13614 Determination of adhesivity of bituminous emulsions by water immersion test.

Adhesion is measured using both of the methods in the standard:

• Determination of immediate adhesivity.
• Water effect on binder adhesion

The Technical Centre of Estonian Roads has passed the Estonian Accreditation Centre’s evaluation, which gives the laboratory accreditation for the following tests:

• In Tallinn:
  • EVS-EN 12697-3:2013 Test methods for hot mix asphalt –Part 3: Bitumen recovery: Rotary evaporator.
• In Viljandi:
  • EVS-EN 1097-6 Determination of particle density and water absorption.
  • EVS-EN 1097-9 Resistance to wear of aggregates. Nordic test.

Passing the evaluation also renewed the annex of the accreditation certificate (as of 05.05.2016).

At the beginning of this year Estonian Road Cluster was founded under the coordination of the Estonian Asphalt Pavement Association.

The Technical Centre of Estonian Roads Ltd and the Estonian Road Administration signed a contract for services on 24.01.2013 concerning the data transmission of three weighing points.

The Technical Centre of Estonian Roads Ltd conducted a study on the orders of the Estonian Road Administration, in order to determine traffic behaviour and to compare it with the results from previous periods.

In 2013 the Certification Department included a new group of construction products under the category “The Certification of Construction Products and Construction Materials” (EAK accreditation certificate no PC011) – EN 12899-1:2007 Fixed, vertical road traffic signs – Part 1: Fixed signs.
