Research is under way in the Strategic Highway Research Program's Long-Term Pavement Performance (SHRP-LTPP) project to develop and implement a test procedure for resilient modulus testing of asphalt concrete. A comprehensive test procedure has evolved over the past 3years and is moving toward full-scale production testing in early 1992. Readers with limited exposure with the SHRP-LTPP program are provided with a feel for the test procedure that has been developed and the various activities that have been undertaken in this program to ensure consistent and reliable results.
