Abstract:

This project sought to identify a nonmechanical screening test that would allow mixes that display resistance to moisture damage to forgo mechanical (TSR) testing. Investigators’ objectives included: • Evaluating the ability of the stripping test to accurately identify moisture-susceptible mixtures. • Evaluating the ability of the fracture energy parameter to replace tensile strength as the mechanical test parameter used to quantify the effect of moisture on asphalt mixtures. • Assessing the effects of specific binder and mixture properties on mechanical testing results.
