Test Method for Determining the Creep Compliance, Resilient Modulus and Strength of Asphalt Materials Using the Indirect Tensile Test Device

Abstract:

This LTPP program protocol describes procedures for determination of Creep Compliance, Resilient Modulus (Mr), and Strength of hot mix asphalt concrete
(HMA) using indirect tensile test techniques. This protocol is partially based on test standards American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) TP9-94 (Edition 1B), ASTM D4123, and the procedures outlined in Section 4.4 (Roque, et al) of this protocol. This protocol describes three distinct procedures for the determination of (1) creep compliance, (2) resilient modulus, and (3) tensile strength.
