16. Abstract

Sixteen hot mix asphalt designs placed during 1992 in Colorado were tested with the standard

CDOT test methods, the French rutting tester, the Hamburg wheel-tracking device, and the

Georgia loaded-wheel tester. Hot mix asphalt was designed with the Texas gyratory compactor. These mixtures are very resistant to rutting. Some improvements need to be made to the

mixtures to resist moisture damage.

COMPARISON OF 1992 COLORADO HOT MIX ASPHALT

WITH SOME EUROPEAN SPECIFICATIONS

By Tim Aschenbrener

1.0 INTRODUCTION In September 1990, a group of Individuals representing AASHTO, FHWA, NAPA, SHRP, AI, and

TRB participated in a 2-week tour of six European countries. Information on this tour has been

published in "Report on the 1990 European Asphalt Study Tour" (1). Several areas for potential

Improvement of asphalt pavements were Identified, including the use of performance-related

testing equipment used in several European · countries. Since the French equipment was

commercially distributed and marketed, it was primarily selected for demonstration in the United

States. The Colorado Department of Transportation (COOT) and the FHWA Turner-Fairbank

Highway Research Center were selected to demonstrate this equipment.

Since the Europeans have such a vastly different method for approving hot mix asphalt (HMA)

and the component aggregates and asphalt cements for use in highway construction, it was

desired to compare the quality of the standard Colorado materials to the requirements of the

Europeans. The purpose of this report is to identify the relative strengths and weaknesses in the

HMA specified and placed by the COOT in 1992 as measured and compared to some of the

European tests and specifications.

2.0 SITE SELECTION During the 1992 construction season, 16 different hot mix asphalt (HMA) designs meeting

Colorado Department of Transportation (COOT) specifications were selected for comparison with

the European performance-related tests. The sites are identified in Table 1.

The projects were selected to represent a wide variety of the mixtures produced throughout

Colorado. There was at least one sample from each of Colorado's six Regions. HMA was

selected to represent the two most commonly used aggregate gradings: Grading C is a 19.0 mm

(3/4-lnch) top size and Grading CX is a 12.5 mm (1/2-inch) top size.

A more detailed characterization of the HMA selected for this study is shown in Table 2. The

gradation was measured with respect to the maximum density line. A fine (F) or coarse (C)

gradation was on the fine or coarse side of the maximum density line. respectively. and a straight

gradation (S) followed the maximum density line. The asphalt cement used was most commonly

AC-i O or AC-20 (AASHTO M 226, Table 2). In some instances the asphalt .cements were

polymerized as classified by Shuler (2). Type I was typically an SB polymer, Type II was SBR,

and Type III was EVA. The aggregates used in the HMA designs were crushed from sand and

gravel pits (Pit) or quarried (Qua) .

3.0 TESTS PERFORMED ON HOT MIX ASPHALT

3.1 Performance-Related Tests. The relative strengths and weaknesses of HMA specified by the CDOT in 1992 were measured

using the French rutting tester, Hamburg wheel-tracking device, and the Georgia loaded-wheel

tester. These tests have previously been described by Aschenbrener and Stuart (3) . A

comparison of the testing conditions of each device is shown in Table 3.

• Estimated because wheelis steel. Actual value depends on sample stiffness.

A pass is one movement of thewheel across the sample. A cycle is 2 passes, the back and forth

movement of the wheel across the sample.

Other tests used by the Europeans Include fatigue and thermal cracking characterization. These

tests were not evaluated as part of this study.

3.2 Standard COOT Tests.

The standard tests used by the CDOT were also performed for comparative purposes. The

CDOT uses the Texas gyratory (ASTM D 4013) to compact samples. The samples are then

tested using the Hveem stabilometer (AASHTO T 146) and the modified Lottman procedure

(AASHTO T 283). The maximum and bulk specific gravities (AASHTO T 209 and T 166) were

measured, and the air voids were calculated (AASHTO T 269). The extraction results (AASHTO

4

Page 11: COMPARISON OF 1992 COLORADO HOT MIX ASPHALT WITH …

T 164, Method B) and gradations (AASHTO T 30) were also determined.

4.0 RESULTS AND DISCUSSION A minimum of 80 kg (177 Ib) of loose, project produced HMA was sampled from each project by

CDOT personnel. The design and field produced material were compared using standard CDOT

tests. The properties from the mixtures were also evaluated for rutting using the French rutting

tester and Georgia loaded-wheel tester. Stripping was evaluated using the Hamburg wheel­

traCking device.

4.1 Design Versus Field Produced Material.

The CDOT selects optimum asphalt content at 3 to 4.5 percent air voids from samples compacted

using the Texas gyratory compactor at 1034 kPa (150 psi) end point stress. A minimum Hveem

stabilometer value of 37 is specified, and a minimum tensile strength ratio of 0.80 from AASHTO

T 283 is specified.

In some instances the properties of the material produced in the field deviate from the properties

measured during the mix design. Therefore, field verification samples are tested. Field

verification is defined as HMA produced in the plant for compacting and testing in the laboratory.

Testing is performed for void properties, Hveem stability, and tensile strength ratio (TSR). A

comparison of mix design properties and field verification properties is shown in Table 4.

D'Angelo (4) has shown that it is common for plant produced material compacted in the laboratory

to have lower air voids than the design requirements. For the 16 sites studied in this experiment,

13 had air voids lower than the design air void level. and of these 7 experienced a loss of 1 % or

more air voids.

In order to minimize the chance of nutting, Aschenbrener (5) found that air voids of samples

produced in the field and compacted in the laboratory with the Texas gyratory (ASTM D 4013)

had to have air voids greater than 2%. Only Site 3 and Site 12 had field verification air voids

below 2%.

4.2 Rutting.

Results from tests performed on material produced from the plant are reported in Table 5. The

French rutting tester, Georgia loaded-wheel tester, and Hveem stabilometer produce results that

relate to the expected rutting performance. Slabs of plant produced material were compacted in

the laboratory to 7 ± 1% air voids for testing in the French and Georgia devices. Results from

the French rutting tester are shown in Appendix A.

Unacceptable French rutting tester results are rut depths greater than 10% after 30,000 cycles

or slopes (rate of rutting) greater than 0.35. Aschenbrener (6) found that slopes of 0.35 to 0.40

or greater are marginal. Aschenbrener (6) found that performing the French rutting tester at 60°C

(140'F) is very severe and lower test temperatures would be appropriate for many parts of

Colorado. Therefore, the test was performed at a temperature that represented the actual

temperature for sites that had unacceptable results at 60"C. The results from the French rutting

tester at temperatures representative of actual site conditions are summarized in Table 6.

The expected rutting performance of mixtures designed with the Texas gyratory compaction

Mixt:nes were designed with the Texas gyratory (ASTM D 4013) at a relatively low void range,

approximately 3.0 to 4.0%. These mixtures were then produced In the field and compacted In

the laboratory with the Texas gyratory and had significantly lower air voids, often 1 % or more

lower. Despite designing at a low air void level and losing voids in production, these mixtures still

appear to be resistant to rutting based on the French rutting tester results. It is likely the 1034

kPa (150 psi) end point stress on the Texas gyratory is too great a compactive effort. A

compactive effort using 680 kPa (100 psi) end point stress was determined by Aschenbrener (5)

to correlate with voids in the wheel path of high trafficked pavements. HMA designed with the

680 kPa (100 psi) end point stress at 4% air voids would have higher asphalt contents but losing

over 1 % air voids through production would likely make a mixture susceptible to rutting. When

using a 680 kPa (100 psi) end point stress, field verification of the HMA will be necessary.

4.3 Moisture Susceptibility.

The Hamburg wheel-tracking device and AASHTO T 283 (Lottman) relate to stripping

performance. All samples tested were treated with hydrated lime. A summary of results relating

to stripping is shown in Table 8. AASHTO T 283 results are shown in Table 4.

Samples tested in the Hamburg wheel-tracking device were prepared using the French plate

compactor. Samples were 360 mm (14.2 in.) long, 180 mm (7.1 in.) wide, and 50 mm (2 in.) thick

and were compacted to an air void level of 7 ± 1 'Yo. A summary of results from the Hamburg

wheel-tracking device is shown in Table 9. Plots of the rutting depths versus passes and the

rutting profile are shown in Appendix B.

The results from the Hamburg wheel-tracking device include the creep slope, the stripping slope

and the stripping inflection point as shown in Fig. 1. The creep slope relates to rutting from

plastiC flow. It is the inverse of the rate of deformation in the linear region of the deformation

curle, after post compaction effects have ended and before the onset of stripping. It is the

number of passes required to create a 1 mm impression from rutting. The stripping slope is the

inverse of the rate of deformation in the linear region of the deformation curve, after stripping

begins and until the end of the test. It is the number of passes required to create a 1. mm

impression from stripping. The stripping inflection point is the number of passes at the

intersection of the creep slope and the stripping slope. It is related to the resistance of the HMA

to moisture damage.

The presence of natural fines with large amounts of clay appeared to be the primary cause of

failure for most samples. Although none of the aggregates had plasticity, clay was determined

to be present by the methylene blue test. The methylene blue test has previously been described

by Aschenbrener (7). Of the five samples with large amounts of clay in the natural fines, all failed

dramatically. Three sites contained granitic aggregates that are typically susceptible to moisture

damage. Although two of the sites passed, one failed dramatically.

Failing samples did not appear to be a function of the type of asphalt cement. Of the passing

samples, three were polymer modified asphalt cements and two were neat asphalt cements. Of

the failing samples, four were polymer modified asphalt cements and seven were neat asphalt

cements.

4.4 Comparison of Performance-Related Test Results.

With three different performance related tests from three different countries, it was desired to

provide a comparison of the results from the different devices. The comparison was beneficial

to identify differences and similarities in the devices.

4.4.1 French Rutting Tester Versus Georgia Loaded·Wheel Tester. Results from the French . .

rutting tester and Georgia loaded-wheel tester were compared as shown in Figures 2 and 3. The

correlation is poor (r" = 0.54). The poor correlation did not appear to be caused by void

properties or asphalt ceinent stiffness. It should be noted that this study was not designed to

develop a correlation between the two devices. However, based on this limited data, it appears

a correlation may be difficult to establish.

4.4.2 French Rutting Tester Versus Hamburg Wheel-Tracking Device. The French rutting

tester provides information that relates to the permanent deformation characteristics of the H MA

pavement. The creep slope from the Hamburg wheel-tracking device also provides information

relating to the permanent deformation characteristics of the HMA pavement. The results from the

French rutting tester were correlated to the creep slope of the Hamburg wheel-trackirig device at

50'C as shown in Figures 4 and 5. · Correlation was very poor (r" = 0.04).

5.0 CONCLUSIONS The following conclusions were based on laboratory testing of field produced material of 16 HMA

mixtures designed and constructed using 1992 COOT standards.

1. HMA mixtures designed with the Texas gyratory were designed at low air void levels. Plant

produced material compacted with the Texas gyratory in the laboratory had even lowe(air void

levels.

2. HMA mixtures designed with the Texas gyratory appear very resistant to rutting based on

testing with the French rutting tester and ,Georgia loaded-wheel tester. This is true even though

the HMA mixtures were deSigned at low air voids and produced at even lower air voids.

3. The 1034 kPa (150 psi) end point stress on the Texas gyratory produces asphalt mixtures with

a low asphalt content. Based on the results from the rutting testers, more asphalt cement could

be added to these mixtures and they would still be rut resistant. A 680 kPa (100 psi) end point

stress might be more reasonable, but field verification will be more critical.

4. Five of the Sixteen samples passed the Hamburg wheel-tracking test at 50°C. Two samples

barely failed. Of the nine samples that failed dramatically, five probalbly failed because of the

presence of large amounts of clay in the natural fines. Although these aggregates were not

plastic, the clay was identified by the methylene blue test. Of the three granitic aggregate

sources tested,one failed dramatically.

5. Therewaspoor correlation between the French rutting tester and the Georgia loaded-wheel

tester. Poor correlation also existed between the French rutting tester and the creep slope from

the Hamburg wheel-tracking device.

6.0 IMPLEMENTATION HMA designed with the 1992 CDOT standards are rut resistant. Increased asphalt contents could

still produce rut resistant H MA mixtures and possibly decrease susceptibility to cracking. Data

provided in this study supports higher asphalt contents, such as those that would be achieved

using the 680 kPa (100 psi) end point stress on the Texas gyratory.

Resistance to moisture damage is a problem for several of the HMA mixtures tested in this study.

When aggregates are from sand and gravel pits, the HMA mixtures susceptible to moisture

contained natural sands with clay. The moisture resistant mixtures did not contain natural sands

with clay. Atterburg limits were not effective at identifying the presence of clay. Further limits on

natural sands and the quality of their P200 should be investigated. Some of the HMA mixtures

using granitic aggregate were susceptible to moisture damage. Methods should be investigated

to improve the adhesion of asphalt cement to some of the granitic aggregates.
