Evaluation of indicator tests for identification of segregation in flexible pavements : a case study

Segregation of hot mix asphalt (HMA) is a continuing problem in construction practice which has caused premature distress in many flexible pavements. A study, funded by the Kansas Department of Transportation, was conducted on a newly constructed pavement to evaluate the effectiveness of indicator t...

Civil engineering (General) Segregation of hot mix asphalt (HMA) is a continuing problem in construction practice which has caused premature distress in many flexible pavements. A study, funded by the Kansas Department of Transportation, was conducted on a newly constructed pavement to evaluate the effectiveness of indicator tests in detection of segregation. Cores were obtained from segregated and non-segregated areas of the pavement and the unit weights of the pavement were determined using a thin-lift nuclear gauge. The change gradation on the 4.75 mm sieve was compared with the indicator tests of asphalt content, i.e., nuclear gauge unit weight, core unit weight and macrotexture.
