• Late 1980s-Early 1990s: Strategic HighwayResearch Program– Superpave mixture design approach– Performance grade binders– But no viable performance tests for mixture
• National Cooperative Highway Research Program– 9-19: Identify simple performance tests for Superpave
(rutting, fatigue)• Dynamic modulus, flow number, flow time
– 9-29: Produce prototype, conduct ruggedness andinterlaboratory studies
• Simple Performance Tester (now known as AMPT)was born!
