EVALUATION OF RUTTING POTENTIAL OF OREGON SURFACE MIXES (WITH DISCUSSION)

The objectives of this study were to evaluate the rutting resistance of selected asphalt concrete mixtures used in Oregon. In particular, it considered the effect of mix type and lift thickness. Future studies will address the effect of base support and asphalt type or modifiers. This study makes use of the LCPC rutting tester to make these evaluations. Rutting tests have been widely used in Europe to rank the relative performance of both conventional and modified asphalt mixes.
