• Abstract:
  This research investigated the use of the flow number in asphalt concrete mixture design and acceptance. It included: (1) ; a review of completed research concerning the flow number and the effect of mixture composition on rutting resistance, (2) ; an evaluation of Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) criteria for mixture design and acceptance based on ; relationships between mixture composition and rutting resistance developed in National Cooperative Highway Research ; Program (NCHRP) Projects 9-25, 9-31, and 9-33, (3) a laboratory experiment to evaluate the effect of changes in asphalt ; content and filler content on rutting resistance as measured by the flow number, and (4) a laboratory experiment to develop ; flow number criteria for intersection mixtures. Recommendations and criteria for using the flow number test in mixture ; design and acceptance were developed.
