The Marshall method was used to design an asphalt concrete mixture. A PG 64-22 asphalt cement with a specific gravity (Gb) of 1.031 was used. The mixture contains a 9.5 mm nominal maximum particle size aggregate with a bulk specific gravity (Gsb) of 2.696. The theoretical maximum specific gravity of the mix (Gmm) at asphalt content of 5.0% is 2.470. Trial mixes were made with average results as shown in the following table:Determine the design asphalt content using the Asphalt Institute design criteria formedium traffic Table .
