* * * * * * SPECS – PG64-22 * * * * * The objective of this research is to develop a mix design method for warm mix asphalt (WMA) in the form of a draft AASHTO-recommended practice for use by engineers and technicians in the public and private sectors. This method shall (1) be based on Superpave mix design methodology, (2) include a suite of performance tests to assess whether a WMA mix design will provide satisfactory field service, and (3) be applicable to any WMA technology used to lower mixing and compaction temperatures. * * * * * Cost Example Fuel usage 2.12 gallons/ton of mix -- Control 1.62 gallons/ton of mix -- Advera 1.80 gallons/ton of mix -- Sasobit ? 20 to 25 % fuel savings ≈ $1/ton of mix ? Cost for Advera ≈ $3.30/ton of mix ? Cost for Sasobit ≈ $2.30/ton of mix Cost occurred in August 2007 WMA Technical Working Group (TWG) Formed in 2005 Purpose: Promote Technology Transfer Facilitate Product Approval Methods Encourage Research Develop Quality and Environmental Testing Protocols Provide Guidelines for Mix Design and Construction Identify Other Benefits of WMA Material Testing Framework Emission Testing Framework WMA Best Practices Document Research Needs Identified Developed three (3) research statements Submitted through AASHTO to NCHRP All projects highly ranked by SCOR Total $1.4 million WMA TWG Accomplishments NCHRP Research Projects NCHRP Project 09-43 “Mix Design Practices for Warm Mix Asphalt” $500,000.00 Advanced Asphalt Technologies, LLC NCHRP Project 09-47 “Engineering Properties, Emissions, and Field Performance” $900,000.00 Principal Investigator: Asphalt Institute * WMA SCAN 2007 Warm Mix Asphalt: Best Practices Quality Improvement Series (QIP) 125 Stockpile Moisture Management Burner Adjustments and Efficiency Aggregate Drying and Baghouse Temperatures Drum Slope and Flighting Combustion Air RAP usage Placement Changes * WMA US Implementation To date trial projects have been place in over 50% of the US states.
