Title:
ASPHALT: MIXTURE DESIGN METHOD TO MINIMIZE RUTTING
Accession Number:
00646113
Abstract:
A major type of asphaltic concrete pavement failure is rutting, which is manifested at the surface. Rutting may originate in any of the pavement layers; rutting that originates in the upper asphaltic concrete layers of surface or binder course is discussed. Recently researchers have recommended the computer program ASPHALT for estimating a design asphalt content for paving mixtures. Its basis is described and its use illustrated. The results of a comparison of laboratory designs for asphalt content with field performance related to rutting are described.
