  • Abstract:
    The Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) has developed specifications and procedures to

    ensure the quality of the hot mix asphalt materials purchased by the Department. The document

    recording these specifications and procedures is the Standard Specifications for Road and Bridge

    Construction. The 2008 Standard Specifications is the reference used throughout this document.

    Specifications, however, are constantly changing as technology advances, materials change, and mix

    design criteria change. The objectives of this project are to: review the state-of-the-industry in Arizona

    with a focus on equipment and technologies currently being used; review ADOT’s construction

    operations conformance history reports to identify probable causes of non-conformance; perform a

    critical review of the asphaltic concrete sections of the current standard specifications; recommend

    asphaltic concrete specification changes; and prepare a report of the activities.

    These objectives were met by holding a series of workshops in Arizona with both ADOT and

    contractor personnel participating. The workshops gave participants an opportunity to discuss issues and

    concerns with details of the existing specifications. Based on this input, a critical review of the existing

    specifications was prepared and recommendations for revising the specifications to national state-of-thepractice

    were made. In addition, recommendations were made for revisions to ADOT’s construction

    operations conformance history reporting system.
