A STUDY OF HVEEM STABILITY VS SPECIMEN HEIGHT

THIS STUDY SHOWS THAT (A) THE MEASURED HVEEM STABILITY OF DENSE-GRADED ASPHALTIC CONCRETE VARIES LINEARLY WITH THE HEIGHT OF SPECIMEN, (B) THE TEXAS GYRATORY SHEAR COMPACTION METHOD AUTOMATICALLY CONTROLS THE COMPACTIVE EFFORT SO THAT SPECIMENS OF VARIOUS HEIGHTS OF ONE MIX HAVE IDENTICAL DENSITIES, AND (C) THE STRENGTHS OF MIXES OF "UNMEASURABLE" STABILITY CAN BE APPROXIMATED BY A METHOD OF EXTRAPOLATION. /HRB/
