• Abstract:
  An objective of this study was to monitor the performance of more than 10 warm mix asphalt (WMA) ; projects in the state. Several WMA technologies were included in the study (foaming, Advera, Evotherm, ; Rediset, Sasobit) and it was determined that performance of the warm mix was comparable to hot mix. ; In addition, mix from two warm mix projects were subjected to different curing times and temperatures and ; then evaluated for mixture volumetrics and performance properties. Results from this study lend support to ; the current procedures TxDOT has adopted.
