Abstract:

Original Report date: October 1997. This is the first and final report for research project 0-1721, "Effectiveness Comparison of TxDOT Quality Control/Quality Assurance and Method Specifications." This study was established and sponsored by TxDOT to evaluate the quality of the hot mix asphalt concrete produced under quality control/quality assurance (QC/QA) specification item 3063. The research period for the project was scheduled for 1 year, September 1996 through August 1997. During the first phase of this project, conducted between September 1996 and February 1997, an extensive amount of technical information and numerical information was gathered and analyzed. During the second phase of this project, various other activities were carried out, including a survey of other states to assess their approach in developing and implementing QC/QA specifications, a physical survey of QC/QA and non-QC/QA specification projects in Texas, and a limited evaluation of the cost of projects. This report presents the results, findings, conclusions, and recommendations based on the collected information and on the work performed during the course of this research program.
