PERFORMANCE-RELATED TESTING OF HEAVY LOADED SWISS ASPHALT CONCRETE SURFACE COURSES (WITH DISCUSSION)

This investigation follows earlier studies of long term pavement performance of heavy loaded freeway sections in Switzerland. The original studies focused on permanent deformation, volumetric and Marshall properties, and creep behavior of all the pavement layers. This paper addresses the performance of the surface course and material properties as measured by the Thermal Stress Restrained Specimen Test (TSRST), the Repetitive Simple Shear test at Constant Height (RSST-CH), and the resilient modulus test (ASTM D4123).
