TRB annual meeting participants looking for an update on the significant advances that have been made in both the Superpave software and the Superpave performance prediction models should make plans to attend "Analyzing and Predicting the Performance of Hot-Mix Asphalt Using Superpave Tools." The workshop will feature software users describing how they have employed the software for data analysis and database management. Other topics will include the analysis and selection of a simple Superpave performance test for use in both the laboratory and field and the status of the model development process. Each of the speakers will focus on what is needed in the future to fully bring Superpave technology to everyday use and how the new tools available can be used to tie mixture and pavement design models together. The workshop will be held Sunday, January 7 at 1:30 p.m. at the Marriott Wardman Park Hotel. |
