Asphalt Pavement Thickness and Mix Design
WEBIs the pavement structure (subgrade, subbase, base, and all asphalt layers) adequate to support the loads? You need to purchase our MS-23 Manual, Thickness Design of Asphalt Pavements for Heavy Wheel Loads. Is the hot mix asphalt surface stiff enough to resist deformation (ruts or indentations)?
HMA Mix Design Fundamentals - Pavement Interactive
WEBHMA mix design is the process of determining what aggregate to use, what asphalt binder to use and what the optimum combination of these two ingredients ought to be.

Asphalt Mix Design Methods Compared - Gilson Co.
WEBThis article is an overview of past and present asphalt mix design methods and equipment, including Hveem, Marshall, Superpave, and Balanced Mix Design (BMD).
WEBfor Design of Pavement Structures What is Asphalt? Asphalt may be referred to by several names including hot mix asphalt (HMA), warm mix asphalt (WMA), plant mix asphalt, asphalt conrete, bituminous concrete, blacktop, or Superpave. Asphalt is comprised of aggregate bound together into a solid mass by asphalt
Mix Types - Pavement Interactive
WEBThe most common type of flexible pavement surfacing in the U.S. is hot mix asphalt (HMA). Hot mix asphalt is known by many different names such as hot mix, asphalt concrete (AC or ACP), asphalt, blacktop or bitumen.
Marshall Mix Design – Pavement Interactive
WEBMarshall Mix Design Procedure. The Marshall mix design method consists of 6 basic steps: Aggregate selection; Asphalt binder selection; Sample preparation (including compaction) Stability determination using the Hveem Stabilometer; Density and voids calculations; Optimum asphalt binder content selection; Aggregate Selection
Basics of Asphalt Mix Design
WEBAsphalt mix design classes, offered by the Asphalt Institute, are usually 3-5 days in length and feature hands-on laboratory experience as well as detailed classroom instruction. This webinar provides the student with a basic overview of the purpose, tests, and analyses needed to conduct an asphalt mix design.
Balanced Mix Design Resource Guide - National Asphalt …
WEBBalanced Mix Design (BMD) is defined as “asphalt mix design using performance tests on appropriately conditioned specimens that address multiple modes of distress taking into consideration mix aging, traffic, climate and location within the pavement structure” per AASHTO PP 105-20.
WEBThis test method is for use with mixtures containing penetration and viscosity or performance grade asphalt cements and aggregate up to 25 mm maximum size. This method also addresses the treatment of reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) for mix design purposes (section 7).
