DENSITY PROBLEMS IN ASPHALT PAVEMENTS IN NORTH DAKOTA

Due to the importance of achieving good density in asphalt pavements, this study was made in an attempt to determine the relationship between pavement density and pavement performance. Also considered were the causes of density problems that are occurring in North Dakota. As a result of this study, investigation was carried out into the reliability of the nuclear density gauge as used on asphalt pavements. The results of this study are also included. (Author)
