• Abstract:
  The purpose of this report is to provide the reader with the current cost-benefit evaluation of hot mix asphalt (HMA) projects constructed using the 3 and 5-year warranty specifications developed by CDOT. There were eight projects evaluated using the 3-year warranty specifications and two projects evaluated using the 5-year warranty specifications. Each warranty project was evaluated with a comparable non-warranty (control) project. Overall, 214.6 lane-miles of warranty projects were constructed and compared to 276.6 lane-miles of control projects.
