Abstract:

Knowledge of the variability in acceptable bituminous concrete pavement materials and construction in Oklahoma is a prerequisite for the development of successful QA specifications. Toward this end, the ODOT commissioned this study to: (1) develop reliable estimates of the overall variability in the quality characteristics, (2) determine the components of variation due to materials and processes, sampling, and testing, (3) assess the tolerances of both the existing and proposed QA specifications, (4) investigate the capability of HMA production/construction processes, (5) evaluate the adequacy of the nuclear density gauge and the nuclear asphalt content gauge for process control and product acceptance purposes, and (6) recommend changes to the QA specifications and/or the QA system, if warranted.
