EVALUATION OF ASPHALT PROPERTIES AND THEIR RELATIONSHIP TO PAVEMENT PERFORMANCE. FINAL REPORT: PART 1. PRESENTATION AND EVALUATION OF DATA

The report is Part 1 of the final report for the research project titled "Evaluation of Asphalt Properties and Their Relationship to Pavement Performance". The overall objective of the research was to implement an analytical chemical procedure that could be used to characterize asphalt pavement materials. Results from the chemical analysis were subsequently used for the evaluation of pavement performance. The chemical test procedure used corresponded to that developed by Corbett and Swarbrick. Fractional compositions were statistically related to a number of physical tests and asphalt temperature susceptibility indices. The report also presents an evaluation of four different asphalt extraction/recovery procedures and an evaluation of a pressure oxygen bomb device used for asphalt laboratory aging.
