“…The four corners are labeled: G1-44, G1-68, G2-44, and G2-68. Further details on the procedure to develop the four corners and calibrate the IVR function are provided elsewhere ( 9 , 10 ). Figure 3 a shows the two considered gradations, and Figure 3 b shows the four corners in the volumetric space along with the 17 QA samples.…”

“…To leverage acceptance quality characteristics (AQCs) in current QA processes for PRS purposes, researchers have recently proposed the development of a performance-volumetrics relationship (PVR) and an associated index-volumetrics relationship (IVR) ( 9 , 10 ). These mathematical relationships aim to pre-calibrate the predicted performance/index property parameters as a function of AQCs to determine the performance/index properties of asphalt mixtures during construction using AQCs.…”

“…These mathematical relationships aim to pre-calibrate the predicted performance/index property parameters as a function of AQCs to determine the performance/index properties of asphalt mixtures during construction using AQCs. For the IVR, two material indices ( S app for cracking and the rutting strain index [RSI] for permanent deformation) are determined based on measurable volumetric properties of asphalt mixtures ( 9 ). The IVR can be developed by conducting performance testing at four different volumetric conditions (referred to as “four corners”) at the project initiation phase.…”

Quality assurance (QA) specifications for asphalt pavement construction measure quality characteristics to adjust payments. The measured quality characteristics are assumed to empirically relate to performance. The validity of this assumption, however, has been questioned in recent years; thus, there has been increased interest in finding ways to more directly evaluate the performance of the as-constructed materials. One proposed method to meet this need involves using the Asphalt Mixture Performance Tester (AMPT) and its associated test methods, which measure fundamental material properties that are then used to calculate the fatigue cracking performance index, Sapp, and a rutting strain index (RSI). These indices can be used in performance-related specification (PRS) or performance-based specification (PBS) frameworks to determine the pay adjustments during the construction of asphalt pavement. While PBS requires measured indices, PRS uses index-volumetrics relationships (IVRs) to predict Sapp and RSI based on conventional acceptance quality. Payment can then be based on a percent within limits (PWL) approach. This paper demonstrates how pay adjustments can be made for a paving project in Indiana following three different QA specification frameworks: the current QA specifications framework in the Indiana Department of Transportation, a PRS framework using IVRs, and a PBS framework that employs measured Sapp and RSI. For each framework, the main elements of the specification were identified and determined. The specification limits for Sapp and RSI and weight factors in composite pay factor equations were determined such that the resulting pay factors are comparable to pay factors obtained from the current QA practices.

“…Facility. e rutting test has been widely applied in the evaluation of the high-temperature properties of conventional asphalt concrete (AC) [23][24][25]. However, due to the distinct difference in component elements between the regular AC material and GA concrete, it is not applicable to use a routine rutting test to evaluate the high-temperature stability of GA concrete in the laboratory.…”

To accurately evaluate the high-temperature stability of cast asphalt concrete, based on the traditional viscoelastic mechanical model, this paper innovatively improves the traditional viscoelastic mechanical model considering the conditions of temperature and dynamic load and deduces the viscoelastic constitutive model of high-temperature deformation performance of cast asphalt concrete, using a dynamic penetration test (DPT) to regress improved the Burgers model parameters and verify the model’s applicability and reliability. The results show that for the modified Burgers model parameters, E1, E2, A, and η2 decrease with increasing temperature, while parameter B increases with the increase of temperature. The high-temperature deformation of cast asphalt concrete is mainly related to η1, and η1 decreases, and deformation increases with the increase in temperature. With the increase in loading times, the dynamic penetration of cast asphalt concrete (AC) gradually increases, that is, when the greater the permanent deformation is. When the specimen is loaded 3000 times, the dynamic penetration value at 60°C is about 1.237 mm, and the dynamic penetration value at 50°C is about 0.819 mm. Under other loading times, the permanent deformation of the specimen at 60°C is much greater than that at 50°C. There is a good fit between the mechanical model derived from the viscoelastic theory and the measured test data, and the correlation coefficient is greater than 0.98, indicating that the model can accurately describe the permanent deformation law of GA under periodic semivector sinusoidal pulse load at high temperatures. The research results of this paper provide a solid theoretical basis for the promotion and application of cast asphalt concrete, and the method has wide applicability in practical engineering.
