DEVELOPMENT AND USE OF STATIC CREEP TEST TO EVALUATE RUT RESISTANCE OF SUPERPAVE MIXES

This is the fourth report for research project 0-1250, The South Central Superpave Center. This study was initiated and sponsored by the Texas Department of Transportation to evaluate the uniaxial static creep test for Superpave mixes. The research period for the project was scheduled for 1 year, from September 1998 through August 1999. This report presents the results, findings, conclusions, and recommendations based on the laboratory study and testing of asphalt mixtures.
