Description
Ultrasound measurements on all PG grades binders (original and aged samples) used by NevadaDOT and DSR and BBR tests will be performed and the ultrasound measurements will be correlated to DSR and BBR tests results. These correlations could eventually substitute the expensive and time consuming SHRP tests with fast and cheap non -destructive ultrasound testing.
