EVALUATION OF RUTTING PERFORMANCE ON THE 2000 NCAT TEST TRACK (WITH DISCUSSION)
The primary objective of the 2000 NCAT Test Track was to provide an accelerated loading facility that could be used to rapidly test a large number of test sections simultaneously. Primarily, the test sections were comprised of materials selected by the different sponsors to answer local questions about the performance of their hot mix asphalt (HMA) under accelerated loadings. The objective of this paper is to use the results from the 2000 NCAT Test Track to compare laboratory rutting tests and field performance for a number of mixes subjected to similar loadings that were representative of actual traffic. Also, several mini experiments were evaluated: performance of fine graded vs. coarse graded mixes, effect of asphalt binder grade on performance, effect of aggregate type on performance, and performance of several mixture types including Superpave, stone matrix asphalt (SMA), and Open Graded Friction Courses.
