Hot-mix recycling of asphalt pavements is increasingly being used as one of the major rehabilitation methods by highway agencies throughout the United States. Besides saving in costs and energy, it also conserves natural resources. The Georgia Department of Trans portation (GDOT) has been constructing recycled hot-mix asphalt

Volumetric Design for Hot-Mix Asphalt (HMA) 1. Scope . 1.1 This standard for mix design evaluation uses aggregate and mixture properties to produce a hot-mix asphalt (HMA) job-mix formula. The mix design is based on the volumetric properties of the HMA in terms of the air voids (V ), voids in the mineral aggregate (VMA), and voids . a

Sampling from each pavement surface involved the removal of three 10.2-cm-diameter cores and the removal of a slab-shaped sample from the HMA surface material. Each slab sample, approximately 61 by 91.4 cm and at least 7.6 cm thick, was used for producing beams for beam fatigue testing. All HMA field samples were subjected to laboratory testing.

One such factor is moisture sensitivity. AASHTO T 283 is the standard test used in the moisture susceptibility evaluation of asphalt mixtures, but the results of the test are not very representative of the expected behavior of asphalt mixtures. The dynamic modulus test measures a fundamental property of the mixture.
