• Abstract:
  Development of a new system for specifying asphalt materials began in 1987 by the Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP). The primary objective of the research was to improve the performance and durability of asphalt pavements in the United States. The final product of the SHRP asphalt research is a new system called Superpave, which is the short for Superior Performing Asphalt Pavements. Superpave represents an improved system for specifying asphalt binders and mineral aggregates, developing an asphalt mixture design and analyzing and establishing pavement performance prediction Superpave, 1995.
