Office:	Office of Infrastructure Research and Development
Team:	Pavement Materials Team
Roadmap/Focus area(s):	Infrastructure Research and Technology Strategic Plan and Roadmap
Project Description:	Mill-and-fill test pavement site, measure full-scale cracking performance with and without the treatment.
Laboratories:	Bituminous Mixtures Laboratory Binder Laboratory Pavement Testing Facility
Start Date:	May 5, 2010
End Date:	December 17, 2012
Funding Amount:	$0.00
FHWA Program Name:	IRT (Infrastructure Research and Technology)
Goals:	(1) Validate performance new 4.75 mm Superpave (Superior PERforming Asphalt PAVEments) mix design to ensure minimal rutting and cracking performance. (2) Gather laboratory engineering performance characteristics. (3) Quantify ability of thin overlay to renew surface and delay top-down cracking.
