The report describes the work undertaken in the second year of a two year project to assist implementation of a new Australian asphalt mix design procedure. The main tasks undertaken were (i) publication of an update for the Australian Provisional Mix Design Guide, (ii) determination of the precision of measurement of air void content of gyratory compacted asphalt specimens, and (iii) determination of the precision of measurement of the modulus of asphalt cylinders. A proposed work program will identify and overcome barriers to implementation and assist in developing a framework for a performance based asphalt specification and improved testing practice.
