Performance of Asphalt and Spray Grade PMBs in Asphalt Mixes
The Australian polymer modified binder (PMB) specification (AGPT/T190) currently requires different binder grades to be used in sprayed sealing and asphalt applications. This study compared the performance of PMBs representing four AGPT/T190 grades…
National Performance-based Asphalt Specification Framework

Part 4B of the Austroads Guide to Pavement Technology provides a recommended approach to the design and characterisation of asphalt mixes in Australia and New Zealand. However, the approach to asphalt mix design and performance characterisation…

Coring of Asphalt Pavements
This Pavement Work Tip provides a guide to equipment, site selection, safety and procedures for coring of asphalt pavements.
Nuclear Density Testing of Asphalt Pavements
This Pavement Work Tip provides a guide to the use of nuclear gauges to determine the density of asphalt pavements.
Changes to the Austroads Mix Design Procedures to incorporate Recycled Asphalt
The Austroads Guide to the Selection and Design of Asphalt Mixes does not address the design of mixes containing Recycled Asphalt Pavement (RAP). The report contains the additions and amendments which should be made to the next revision of the Guide…
Austroads Asphalt Mix Design Implementation Workshops
A new, performance related asphalt mix design procedure was developed to address increased traffic stressing of pavements and to evaluate new mix types and new binder formulations. A series of Workshops was held in the capital cities of Australia…
