Principal Investigator:

Chris Williams, rwilliam@iastate.edu (other projects)

Project Status: In Progress

Start Date: 05/01/2006
End Date: 11/30/2007


Research Objective: Research objectives are to design and implement a laboratory study to evaluate asphalt mixtures commonly used in Iowa by using the Superpave Simple Performance Test(s). The study will provide a summary of material property values for use in the AASHTO Guide for the Design of New and Rehabilitated Pavement Structures.
