• Abstract:
  Approximately 89% of the paved-road network in Kansas is asphalt surfaced (bituminous and ; composite). According to the Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT), typical design ; performance period of hot-mix asphalt (HMA) pavement for new construction or reconstruction ; is approximately 12 years. In most cases, these pavements are overlaid as they reach the end of ; their design life. Both bituminous and composite pavements are usually overlaid with Superpave ; HMA for pavement preservation. The new highway program of KDOT also emphasizes ; pavement preservation. KDOT is currently seeking to extend the lives of Superpave mixes ; for these overlays through educated better selection of asphalt and aggregates. Thus, KDOT is ; contemplating use of the Hamburg Wheel Tracking Device (HWTD) as a performance tester.
