Laboratory Validation of an Endurance Limit for Asphalt Pavements
TRB’s National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 762: Laboratory Validation of an Endurance Limit for Asphalt Pavements presents models for the hot-mix asphalt fatigue endurance limit that are responsive to asphalt binder and mixture properties and healing between load cycles and are suitable for incorporation as algorithms in Pavement Mechanistic-Empirical Design and other design methods.
Appendixes were not included in the print version of the report, but are available for download from the links below:
