RESISTANCE TO DEFORMATION OF HOT ROLLED ASPHALT

The mechanical properties of a series of hot rolled asphalt wearing course mixtures have been investigated using both the Marshall and wheel-tracking test methods. Results obtained indicate that Marshall stability and Marshall quotient are closely related to resistance to deformation, as measured by the laboratory wheel tracking test at 45 degrees centigrade. Based upon the relationships established and recommended maximum wheel tracking-rates, design criteria in terms of parameters measured in the Marshall test have been derived for roads carrying different levels of commercial vehicle traffic.
