Abstract
Get ready to challenge assumptions and uncover the science beneath the surface. In the asphalt world, long-held beliefs often go unquestioned. Drawing from Mixbusters in Asphalt Magazine, this session will examine topics such as design thickness, reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP), and construction best practices and their impact on pavement durability and performance. It is time to challenge the norm, build with confidence, and engineer for the future.
