Superpave Asphalt Mixture Design Illustrated. Level 1 Lab Methods

摘要

The objective of the educational program is to train students in the practicalapplications of SHRP asphalt products. It is composed of two parts: Superpave asphalt binder technology and Superpave asphalt mixture design and analysis. The purpose of this manual is to provide a laboratory instructional reference that will be used by students at the Center as they are instructed in Superpave level 1 mixture design. This instruction occurs principally in the NATC laboratories. The manual is written for technicians and engineers with no previous training in Superpave, but with some knowledge in asphalt materials and mix design. Other instructional aids at the Center include student texts that are used in the classroom portion of training.
