Standard EN SampleStandard Practice for Balanced Mix Design
Also Known As:
AASHTO MP 46-20 is a standard that outlines a methodology for designing asphalt mixtures. This methodology utilizes both volumetric and performance-based or related test data to develop job-mix formulas.
The standard establishes minimum requirements for performance testing, ensuring that the designed asphalt mixtures meet specified performance criteria. These performance criteria may include parameters such as rutting resistance, cracking resistance, moisture susceptibility, and fatigue resistance.
By incorporating both volumetric and performance-based testing, AASHTO MP 46-20 aims to achieve a balanced mix design. This means that the asphalt mixture will have a proper combination of asphalt binder content, aggregate gradation, and air void content, resulting in a durable and long-lasting pavement.
