Durable Asphalt Study

This project is being pursued to evaluate the holistic manner in which asphalt is supplied, designed, produced, placed, and accepted. The overarching implications of this evaluation would likely lead to some of Mississippi Department of Transportation's (MDOT’s) current practices being removed in favor of other practices that in cases where the adjusted overall protocols are more likely to lead to more durable asphalt that is less prone to cracking at competitive life cycle economics.
