Samenvatting
This report presents the findings of a research project to investigate whether combining the environmental conditioning system with the simple performance test would provide a superior procedure for determining the moisture susceptibility of hot-mix asphalt (HMA). The report will be of particular interest to materials engineers in state highway agencies, as well as to materials suppliers and paving contractor personnel who are responsible for the design and evaluation of HMA.
