Abstract:Superpave is a set of methods and materials for asphalt paving and the primary method
used by the Florida Department of Transportation. It is well documented that performance
of asphalt mixtures is strongly affected by size composition of aggregate, which makes up
between 80 and 90 percent by volume
of hot asphalt mix. Asphalt mixes that
perform well in laboratory rutting tests
may not have acceptable cracking
performance in the field. The size
composition of aggregate presents an
opportunity to improve cracking behavior
of asphalt pavements.
