Established in 1953 in Southern California Northern California group formed in 1994 Became statewide association in 2012 ~200 members Producers, refiners, paving contractors,
equipment manufacturers, labs, etc. The only association focusing exclusively
on asphalt issues & promotion in California

National standard based on AASHTO tests Emerged in 1990s CA, NV last two states to adopt July 1, 2014 Caltrans deadline Pilot projects Data collection New for California: Gyratory Compactor
and Hamburg Wheel Track Joint industry-agency committee vetted AASHTO = American Association of State Highway & Transportation Officials

WHERE IS IT? (Section 39) New specifications still Superpave oriented Now referred to as 2015 Specifications Current RSS for 2010 specification IS the
2015 specification

WHAT’S DIFFERENT? Gyratory compaction Larger samples Higher binder content …sometimes Coarser gradations More fractured faces Verification changes = more sampling Sampling locations Testing, testing, testing

CHANGES TO SPECIFICATIONS: Tighter Specs Air Voids ±1.5%
Binder for HMA: -0.3%, +0.5% TWM
Binder for Rubber: -0.4%, +0.5% TWM No more VFA VMA Design vs. Production HMA = Hot Mix Asphalt TWM = Total Weight of Mix VFA = Voids Filled with Asphalt VMA = Voids in the Mineral Aggregate

Most jobs are standard Some jobs are method
With ‘Superpave’ the trend in California
continues toward standard (prove you hit the target) and away from method (follow this recipe)

Continuing problem: Local agencies that specify the Caltrans specification Caltrans designs are for heavy traffic Coarser mixes ‘Type B’ mix going away (nSSP) ‘Cut & Paste’ is BAD Know how mix design testing & acceptance
will impact the construction schedule! nSSP = Non-Standard Special Provision

QC Nuclear Density Testing: Required to perform QC Nuclear Gauge
Density (CT375) for all non-minor jobs 3 per 250 tons or 3 per paving day (whichever
is greater) Not used for acceptance, still using cores for
acceptance Cores not required if using ‘Method’ Compaction
QC = Quality Control

Where can you sample? (QC Samples from anywhere per CTM125)
Conveyor system on plant Slat conveyor or automatic sampling device between drum discharge and storage silos
Windrow at plant or job site From silo or batch plant discharge to create
stockpile From truck From paver or MTV receiving hopper From mat behind the paver CTM = California Test Method

Where can you sample? QA TSR & Hamburg sampled
At the plant
From the truck
Windrow All other QA HMA samples
At the plant
From the truck
Windrow
Mat behind the paver QA = Quality Assurance TSR = Tensile Strength Ratio

Placement considerations: Required use of MTV for all rubberized and
OGFC Required use of Nuclear Gauge
MTV = Material Transfer Vehicle OGFC = Open-Graded Friction Course

New equipment ($) Larger sample sizes ($) More materials to process ($) More space ($) to accommodate both new equipment
and larger sample sizes AASHTO accreditation labs for mix design ($) More QC and QA testing ($) AASHTO Test Methods and New Mix Design – personnel
training ($) Profilometer replacing CA Profilograph – new
equipment and spec – equipment certification and personnel training ($)
