• Abstract:
  The purpose of this Asphalt Paving Handbook is to provide comprehensive technical information and best practices related to the paving of asphalt mixtures for both roadway and airfield projects. The goal is to keep the discussion focused on practical aspects that have the greatest effect on the quality and long-term performance of the finished pavement. Asphalt paving success cannot be accomplished with simply good paving and compaction operations. Success also depends on appropriate structural design, proper materials selection, mix design, plant production, surface preparation, and quality assurance (QA). Using best practices in each of these phases results in asphalt pavements that are built to last.
