Asphalt Design - SuperPave: Binders
Architect Training Course
|
|
Millions of tons of asphalt pavement are placed in the United States every year. Methods of mix design have remained virtually unchanged since the 1940Æs, despite significant changes in traffic volumes and load. Recent advantages in asphalt mix design have led to the use of Superpave for many highway projects. Superpave has been designed to overcome some of the historic problems with asphalt pavements, including rutting and cracking. This 2-hour online course provides a detailed look at testing, specifying, and selecting asphalt binders for Superpave, based on information from the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). Additional RedVector.com courses are available on other Superpave subjects. The intended audience for this course includes those involved in the design and construction of hot mix asphalt pavements, including contractors, agency personnel, and consulting engineers. This course includes a multiple-choice test at the end. At the conclusion of this course, you will be able to: - Describe the Superpave binder test equipment
- Discuss where the tests fit into the range of material conditions (temperature and aging conditions) experienced by asphalt pavements
- Explain the Superpave specification requirements and how they are used in preventing permanent deformation, fatigue cracking and low temperature cracking
- Discuss how to select the performance grade (PG) binder for a projectÆs climatic and traffic conditions
