HOT MIX ASPHALT (HMA) PAVING HISTORY

 

 

SCOPE

 

This IM describes the data collection phase of Pavement Management, which provides information for performance evaluations, material utilization, and construction features of HMA paving projects. The HMA Paving History (Form #937) is used for data collection and reporting.

 

 

PROCEDURE

 

REPORT FORM

 

Form #937, copy attached, is to be filled out for each pavement course constructed.

 

 

REPORTING

 

Pavement histories will be required on all Interstate and Primary projects.

 

Each project may include several types of construction, e.g., base, intermediate, surface, shoulders, sub-base and resurfacing. Include a paving history for each type.

 

 

DATA REQUIRED

 

The report form has space allowed for a number of data entries; include all data that is readily available. Include milepost limits on the location description line. The HMA Charting program will populate the paving history automatically. Fill in missing information as necessary.
