AASHTO T 340-10 (2019) PDF Download

The AASHTO T 340-10 (2019) standard provides guidelines and procedures for testing the rutting susceptibility of asphalt-aggregate mixtures using the Asphalt Pavement Analyzer (APA). The method involves conducting tests on asphalt samples to evaluate their potential for rutting under traffic loading conditions.

The standard includes an annex, Annex A1, which outlines procedures for calibration checks of various components and equipment used in the APA testing process. This ensures the accuracy and reliability of the test results.

Additionally, the standard includes Appendix X1, which provides specifications and discussions regarding different options for APA testing parameters. These parameters are often chosen based on the specific requirements of the testing project and the preferences of the APA users.
