• Description:
  Moisture damage to hot mix asphalt pavements has been a sporadic but persistent problem in Colorado, even though laboratory testing is performed to identify moisture susceptible mixtures. The laboratory conditioning was often less severe than the conditioning the hot mix pavement encountered in the field. Twenty sites of known field performance with respect to moisture susceptibility, both acceptable and unacceptable, were identified. Materials from these sites were tested using several new and innovative tests: the Hamburg wheel-tracking device, the SHRP Environmental Conditioning System (ECS), and tests of only the aggregate component of the mix.
