Abstract:

At its most basic, an asphalt mixture is asphalt

binder and crushed stone aggregate. This

seemingly simple mixture is very complex; method

of preparation and application, additives, and

aggregate type all influence the quality and

durability of paved surfaces. Of course, what

is in the mixture is important, but so is what

“isn’t” there — the mixture’s air voids. Typical

asphalt pavements contain 4–7% air voids. An open

graded friction course (OGFC) mixture is a surface

mixture with 18-20% voids. OGFC is known for its

safety and driving comfort benefits due to better

splash and spray and runoff performance.

In this project, Rutgers University researchers

examined a Florida Department of Transportation

(FDOT) OGFC called FC-5. FDOT had observed

damage to some roadways paved with FC-5 and

contracted with the researchers to examine FC-5

components to understand their contribution to

FC-5’s performance.
