Superpave Mix Design Manual for New Construction and Overlays

摘要

This laboratory manual presents the Superpave mix design system in a complete, step-by-step format. It is intended for engineers and technicians in public and private organizations to use when designing paving mixes for all classes of highways, from farm-to-market roads to urban freeways. An essential companion to this manual is The Superpave Mix Design System Manual of Specifications, Test Methods and Practices. The Superpave software program (The Superpave Specification, Mix Design and Support Program) and its users manual are also necessary to take full advantage of the mix design system. This software is designed to run on an 80386-based or, preferably, an 80486-based personal computer. (Copyright (c) 1994 National Academy of Sciences.)
