Description / Abstract:
This standard describes a test method for measuring the
resistance of asphalt mixtures to rutting using Minimum Strain
Rates (MSR) from an incremental Repeated Load Permanent Deformation
(iRLPD) Test conducted by means of an Asphalt Mixture Performance
Tester (AMPT) System. This practice is intended for dense- and
gap-graded mixtures with nominal maximum aggregate sizes to 37.5
mm.
This standard may involve hazardous materials, operations,
and equipment. This standard does not purport to address all of the
safety concerns associated with its use. It is the responsibility
of the user of this procedure to establish appropriate safety and
health practices and to determine the applicability of regulatory
limitations prior to its use.
