Abstract:Adding new materials to pavement layers is a proven technique to
improve performance. Many types of additives—from engineered
polymers and acids to recycled pavement, crumb rubber, shingles
and glass—have been used to help construct better roadways. MDOT
research helped address a sizable knowledge gap in this area: how to
determine whether an untested material will live up to its promise as
an additive. The resulting evaluation software is a helpful tool to assist
MDOT pavement designers in making smart engineering decisions about
new materials.
