The Synthesis of Mixture Strength Parameters Applied to the Determination of
AASHTO Layer Coefficient Distributions
Brian J. Coree and Thomas D. White
Abstract
A recent research effort required that the "AASHTO layer coefficients" be determined for
the ten (10) bituminous mixtures currently specified by the Indiana Department of
Highways (IDOH). This paper describes the methodology employed in this project and
the results obtained. A number of disparate methodologies have been combined to yield
what the authors believe to be a novel, yet powerful answer to a difficult and ill-defined
problem.
