Background
• SMA designed in Germany in the 1960’s as mix resistant to studded tires
• Adopted in US in 1991

Rutting Susceptibility
• Laboratory evaluations typically show SMA to have increased rutting susceptibility compared to HMA
• Experiments to compare SMA and P401
• Three tests: stability and flow, repeated-load creep, and Hamburg wheel-tracking

Repeated Load Permanent Deformation to Asses Rutting Potential
• 100 mm diameter, 150 mm height• 6% air voids• 58 C (climatic high temp. - 6 C )• 20 psi confinement• 0.1 second load; 0.9 second rest• 100, 200, 350 psi vertical load• Continue for 10,000 cycles or until tertiary
flow
![Page 17: Stone Matrix Asphalt (SMA) for Airfield Pavements 2010 FAA Worldwide Airport Technology Transfer Conference Brian Prowell Don Watson Graham Hurley Ray.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/5697bfb71a28abf838c9ee0f/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
With the repeated load test the permanent deformation
performance of SMA mixtures and P401 mixtures were not significantly different.

Hamburg TestTest combines rutting performance with moisture
susceptibility• Uses a steel wheel 47 mm wide by 204 mm
diameter• Load = 685 N (154 lb)• Full test is 20,000 cycles• Temperature - 50 C• VTM - 6 + 0.5 %• Tested under water

After mixture was milled, approximately 2 weeks of rainfall occurred causing the asphalt mixture to become soaked with
moisture

Construction in 2007
• The contractor used two asphalt plants, two pavers, and up to 8 rollers
• In place air voids were typically 3 to 4 percent

Recommendations
• SMA could cost 82 to 94 percent more than dense-graded mixes and still be cost effective on a life-cycle basis.
• SMA is not typically suited to small quantity production
• 65 gyrations recommended as alternative to 50-blow Marshall
