NCHRP Report 673: A Manual for Design of Hot-Mix Asphalt with Commentary
National Research CouncilTRB’s National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 673: A Manual for Design of Hot-Mix Asphalt with Commentary incorporates the many advances in materials characterization and hot-mix asphalt (HMA) mix design technology developed since the conclusion of the Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP).
The final report on the project that developed NCHRP Report 673 and Appendixes C through F to NCHRP Report 673 were published as NCHRP Web-Only Document 159. The titles of the appendixes are as follows:
• Appendix C: Course Manual
• Appendix D: Draft Specification for Volumetric Mix Design of Dense-Graded HMA
• Appendix E: Draft Practice for Volumetric Mix Design of Dense-Graded HMA
• Appendix F: Tutorial
The companion Excel spreadsheet HMA tool and the training course materials described in NCHRP Report 673 are available for download from the Internet.
