Abstract:

The background for a specification that includes both positive and negative price adjustments for the density of asphalt concrete is presented. The results that have been obtained since the specification was introduced in 1978 are described. The incentive features of the specification are emphasized, because it is believed that they are unique and have been the primary reason that improved densities have been obtained in Virginia during the last 6 years.
