    This document describes a test procedure for measuring the penetration of tar and bituminous materials. It involves cooling samples of the material to a specific temperature, usually 25°C, and then using a penetrometer to measure the depth of penetration over a set period of time. The test is run in trials and the mean penetration value in 1/10th of millimeters is calculated from the results. Key details like sample identification, test temperature, and penetration readings are recorded.
