Abstract:

This project aimed to validate loose mix aging procedures for cracking resistance evaluation of asphalt mixtures in balanced mix design (BMD) with a broad range of field projects covering various mixture components, pavement ages, and climatic conditions. To that end, a two-phase research approach was followed, with Phase I focusing on a literature review, research gap analysis, and development of Phase II work plan. The literature review topics included development and preliminary field validation of existing loose mix aging procedures; the impact of loose mix aging on asphalt binder and mixture properties; and effects of silo storage, mix hauling, mix reheating, specimen storage, and asphalt weathering on asphalt binder and mixture properties.
