Abstract

Improved field management of asphalt mixes is an area to which both engineers and contractors are giving additional emphasis. Once the engineer has established the criteria for performance and approved the proposed mix design, there are many places in the plant operation for mix-related problems to develop - from stockpiling through the cold feeds to the discharge of the mix. Mix-related problems need to be identified and corrected before tons of material are placed on the roadway. To demonstrate this concept and other innovations, the Federal Highway Administration's Demonstration Projects Program (FHWA-DPP) has developed DP #74 "Field Management of Asphalt Mixes."
