Fundamental Requirement

Pavement surface characteristics play an important role in accident occurring, especially in wet conditions: the optimization of surface performance starting from hot mix asphalt (HMA) design phases is a fundamental requirement in road construction techniques. Although such relevance, the prediction of surface properties based on HMA composition and construction still calls for further research. Indeed, there is not a clear framework for a mix design oriented to surface properties. In the light of the abovementioned facts authors efforts were focused into the analysis of the most significant factors influencing pavement surface macrotexture, by analyzing the main variables of existing macrotexture prediction models. Many experimental mixes were designed and produced. Some statistical correlations between macrotexture data and mixes grading and volumetric properties were also carried out. Outcomes of this study are expected to benefit both practitioners and researchers.
