BS 594987:2015+A1:2017 specifies requirements for the transport, laying and compaction of asphalt mixtures conforming to BS EN 13108-1, BS EN 13108-4 and BS EN 13108-5, and described in PD 6691, from the time that they leave the mixing plant until they are placed on the road ready to receive a superimposed layer or traffic. It also includes requirements for preliminary work at the laying site needed to ensure that the substrate is fit to receive the asphalt and for the application of bond coats.

Although this standard does not contain explicit requirements for asphalt materials covered in other parts of BS EN 13108 or other proprietary asphalt mixtures, the general requirements of this standard can be applied to those mixtures, in addition to special requirements for particular mixtures specified in individual quality plans and/or method statements.
