40
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
the penetration caused by standard Condition i.e.
Standard Weight= 100 gm
Standard temp. = 25 Degree C.
Standard penetration time = 5 Seconds
Unis = 10th of mm to show the results and avoiding Errors
e.g. if the value is 30/40, the 30/40 is the bitumen
penetration value (tested in standard condition) lies
between 3 to 4 mm.

Answer / abir kumar ghosh
30-40 means bitumen having penetration of a needle between
30-40 mm with standar weight on it at 25 deg Centigrade.
Lower the penetration is higher the viscosity.
The test is done with the apratus called Vicats apparatus.
