Abstract

Asphalt concrete stiffness is currently only determined by tests in The Netherlands. A prediction model can be useful for mix design and verification purposes. In this paper existing asphalt concrete stiffness prediction models have been analysed. A database with 7 mixes has been build to assess these models. A study was performed on the relevance of binder and composition parameters for predicting asphalt concrete stiffness. Finally, a new model is proposed.
