EVALUATION OF MARSHALL STABILITY AND FLOW VALUES OF ASPHALTIC PAVING MIXTURES

THIS STUDY WAS CONDUCTED TO INVESTIGATE THE EFFECTS OF SPECIMEN THICKNESS ON BOTH MARSHALL STABILITY AND MARSHALL FLOW. CORRECTION FACTORS WERE DERIVED FROM REGRESSION ANALYSES FOR BOTH STABILITY AND FLOW, BASED ON DATA FROM 18 MIXES. MIXTURES STUDIED INCLUDED BOTH ORIGINAL PLANT MIXES AND REMOLDED FIELD CORES. THICKNESS OF SPECIMENS RANGED FROM 0.5 TO 3.2 INCHES. /AUTHOR/
