Abstract:

The Long Term Pavement Performance (LTPP) program recently used data from its Seasonal Monitoring Program to quantify the relationship between
air and pavement temperatures. This evaluation resulted in the development of improved low and high pavement temperature models for selecting
Superpave PG asphalt binders. These improved models were then incorporated into a software program called LTPPBind.
