Details6.1 General. Hot-mix asphalt (HMA) is a generic term that includes many different types of mixtures of aggregate and asphalt cement (binder) produced at elevated temperatures (generally between 300-350ºF) in an asphalt plant. Typically, HMA mixtures are divided into three mixture categories: dense-graded; open-graded; and gap-graded as a ...
Detailsand liquified asphalts. To be used for pavement, asphalt cement, which is semisolid, must be heated prior to mixing with aggregate. The resulting hot mix asphalt concrete is generally applied in thicknesses of from 5 to 15 centimeters (2 to 6 inches). Liquified asphalts are: (1) asphalt cutbacks (asphalt cement thinned or "cutback" with ...
DetailsThe mix design process uses a series of lab procedures to select an appropriate blend of aggregate sources and sizes and determine the type and amount of asphalt binder. It should be recognized that a mix design is just the starting point for achieving the desired asphalt pavement performance.

DetailsNov 14, 2019· The Aggregate Blend tab includes the various blend trials for the asphalt mix design. On this tab, you can view the calculated and measured properties for the blend, you can edit properties of the aggregates being used, and you can access a specialized blending tool to assist in developing the blends.
DetailsThis study is intended to investigate the effects of Idaho aggregate gradation on paving mix design. Four Idaho source of aggregate were chosen for the study. For each source, three different gradations were made and subjected to Hveem test. It appeared that gradation of each source has its own effect on the asphalt paving mix. It is found that for Source Bk …
DetailsAsphalt mixture design concepts are presented that use aggregate interlock and aggregate packing to develop an aggregate blend that meets volumetric criteria and provides adequate compaction characteristics. The concepts rely on coarse aggregate for the skeleton of the mixture with the proper amount of fine aggregate to provide a …
DetailsAggregate blending for asphalt mix design: Bailey method. From the beginning of asphalt mixture design it was desired to understand the interaction of aggregates, asphalt, and the voids created during their compaction. In asphalt mixture design, guidance is lacking in the selection of the design aggregate structure and understanding the ...
DetailsAn asphalt mix design can be created using the following 10 steps. Step 1: Setup. The user inputs basic mix design information, binder information, consensus and specific gravity test results, and the number of trial aggregate blends (at least one) to be evaluated. Step 2: Aggregate Gradations and Consensus Properties.
