Specification parameter for asphalt mixtures using frequency sweep data from the Superpave shear tester
The data generated from the Superpave shear tester (SST) frequency sweep at constant height (FSCH) test is available in terms of the complex shear modulus G* versus frequency at the temperature of measurement. An attempt is made to unify the sets of curves generated at different temperatures on various mixtures. The procedure involved the use of a normalizing frequency parameter. The temperature at which the normalizing parameter becomes equal to one is suggested as a specification parameter for assessing mixture performance. This specification parameter was determined for various mixtures of known performance and found to follow performance ranking in all the studied cases.
