Continuation of Superpave Projects Monitoring [summary]

Abstract:
The Superpave mix design system, devised in 1993 under the Strategic Highway Research Program, represented a major change in design and construction of asphalt mixtures. However, current pavement design procedures and models are based on the performance of older mixtures designed with the Marshall system. Therefore, it is critical to monitor the performance and material characteristics of Superpave project sections and to establish a database of observations so that design procedures and models can be updated. In addition to the changes in this material system, the adoption by the American Association of Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) of a new standard for design, the Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide, has created additional needs for field data to update design methodologies.
