Superpave Lab Background Data

The document provides background data for a Superpave laboratory session including: - The project location requires a PG 70-28 binder and will be mixed and compacted between 307-321°F and 272-283°F respectively. - The project has an estimated 0.4 million ESALs and consists of a 2" cold mill and 2" SR-12.5A overlay. - The mix design is an SR-12.5A RAP mix using a PG 70-28 virgin binder. Gyratory compaction will use Nini of 7, Ndes of 75, and Nmax of 115. - The aggregate blend consists of 18% crushed limestone #1,
