Evaluation of Nevada's Superpave and Hveem field mixtures
This research compares the performance of Superpave HMA mixtures to NDOT Hveem mixtures of asphalt pavements from four different sections. Two sections were designed with the Superpave volumetric mix design and two were designed using the Hveern design method. Two different binders were used (AC-20P...

| Summary: | This research compares the performance of Superpave HMA mixtures to NDOT Hveem mixtures of asphalt pavements from four different sections. Two sections were designed with the Superpave volumetric mix design and two were designed using the Hveern design method. Two different binders were used (AC-20P and PG64-22), each binder was used with a Superpave designed mix and a Hveern designed mix resulting in four different sections (SP AC-20P, SP PG64-22, Hveem PG 64-22, and Hveem AC-20P). The first study compares the permanent deformation resistance of the Superpave mix design sections to the permanent deformation resistance of the Hveem sections. The second study compares the amount of moisture damage between these sections by finding the ratio of the resilient modulus and shear resistance value when wet over the resilient modulus and shear resistance value when dry. |
