The best temperature to install asphalt is typically between 50°F and 85°F (10°C to 30°C). At these temperatures, the asphalt can be properly compacted and achieve optimal adhesion. Installing asphalt in temperatures below 50°F can lead to poor compaction and increased risk of cracking, while temperatures above 85°F may cause the material to become too soft, affecting its durability and finish.

Can you use cement to tile on an asphalt floor?
If you are positive that it is asphalt I would not suggest adhering tile directly to the asphalt. If removal of asphalt is not an option I would install a subfloor and use thinset mortar to adhere the tile. Another option (probably the better option) would be to pour a concrete mix over the asphalt. Than use thinset to install the tile. The concrete will incapsolate the asphalt. Asphalt more than likely has oils in it and can be a hazard.

What is the difference between penetration and softening point of a bitumen?
The penetration point of Bitumens such as asphalt is the depth in tenths of millimeters a standard weighted needle will penetrate through a given sample of asphalt at a given time and temperature. The softening point of Bitumen such as asphalt is the temperature at which the Bitumen softens at standard conditions. Method of detrmination employs a ball and ring in which the ball falls through the ring after the softening has been reached.
What is the difference between hot asphalt and cold asphalt?
Hot mix asphalt is is heated for application, which thins the material. Remember those steaming metal buckets you used to see on industrial rooftops? Cold asphalt is liquified with something else besides heat. There are two kinds: Emulsified asphalt is mixed with water and an emulsifying agent. Think of it like salad dressing that does not separate in the bottle. The other kind is called Cutback asphalt and is mixed with a petroleum solvent such as naptha, gasoline, or kerosene. They both are liquids at ambient temperature when applied; then the solvent or water evaporates, leaving the asphalt behind. Look up at asphaltinstitute.org
