Abstract:

This report contains the experimental design and research plan for the Specific Pavement Studies experiment SPS-9A. The SPS-9A is the first part of a multi-stage approach to the SPS-9 experiment, Field Validation of the SHRP (Strategic Highway Research Program) Asphalt Specifications and Mix Design. The SPS-9A is designed for immediate implementation to provide agencies with hands-on experience with methods and requirements developed under the SHRP program. The primary objectives of SPS-9A are to validate the SHRP binder specifications, to allow direct comparison of asphalt mixtures designed using Agency procedures and the newly developed SHRP procedures, and to provide initial data for use in refining the mixture performance models also developed as part of the SHRP research.
