Modified Environmental Conditioning System: Validation and Optimization
Moisture damage is a common problem faced by highway agencies. Over the years, several laboratory test methods have been developed to identify moisture susceptible asphalt concrete mixtures. However, none of them has been successful in consistently discerning moisture susceptible asphalt concrete mixtures. The Environmental Conditioning System, developed under the Strategic Highway Program, had a distinct advantage over the existing methods because it could simulate field conditions. A comprehensive evaluation of the test method showed that although the ECS was a promising concept, it needed further modification and evaluation. The original Environmental Conditioning System was modified under a research project that the modified system had the potential for successfully identifying the moisture susceptibility of asphalt concrete mixtures.
