Evaluation of Superpave Shear Test Protocols
The Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP) study, during the development of the Superpave mixture design and analysis process, provided a series of test protocols using the Superpave shear tester (SST) to predict the performance of the hot mix asphalt (HMA) mixtures. Excessive time is required to conduct all of these test procedures on each HMA mixture designed, which can significantly increase the cost of mixture design. Conducting all of the tests can be confusing and even conflicting. The objectives of this study is to evaluate four selected Super pave shear test protocols and determine which of the test protocols is most suitable for predicting asphalt pavement performance. The predominant pavement performance of interest herein is rutting. So, the ultimate goal is to identify the 'best' SST test protocol that can evaluate the shearing resistance of HMA.
