Samenvatting
This three-part report covers the development of accelerated performance tests for defining the fatigue response of asphalt-aggregate mixes and their use in mix analysis and design systems. The development process included a number of phases, which are described in the report. Included in this report are the following: (1) a state-of-knowledge review for fatigue response of asphalt-aggregate mixes including the identification of candidate tests to measure fatigue resistance that can be used for performance (fatigue cracking prediction); (2) a description of a pilot test program and its results to evaluate the candidate tests and to select suitable equipment.
