The phrase mutatis mutandis ânow sometimes written mÅ«tÄtÄ«s mÅ«tandÄ«s to show vowel length âdoes not appear in surviving classical literature. It is Medieval Latin, first attested in British sources in the year 1272.Both words are participles of the Latin verb mutare (to move; to change; to exchange).utatis mutandis was first borrowed into English in the 16th century, but continues to be italicized as a foreign phrase.

The largest use of asphalt/bitumen is for making asphalt concrete for road surfaces and accounts for approximately 85% of the asphalt consumed in the United States. Asphalt concrete pavement mixes are typically composed of 5% asphalt/bitumen cement and 95% aggregates (stone, sand, and gravel).he asphalt/bitumen in the removed material can be reactivated and put back to use in new pavement mixes. With some 95% of paved roads being constructed of or surfaced with asphalt, a substantial amount of asphalt pavement material is reclaimed each year.
