Moisture Senstivity of Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) Mistures in Nebraska - Phase II
Record Type: DOT

The ultimate goal of this research is to deliver guidelines that can help select appropriate material combinations resisting better to moisture damage based on clear understanding of moisture damage mechaniisms and extensive testing results. Development and/or validation of appropriate testing protocols that can judge moisture damage sensitvity of asophalt mixes is another important objective of this study. Research outcomes from this study will be incorporated with research findings from the previous NDOR project (P564) to draw more comprehensive and general conclusions based on results from diverse mixes.
