Millions of tons of asphalt pavement are placed in the United States every year. Methods of mix design have remained virtually unchanged since the 1940's, 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.
