Precision Statements for AASHTO Standard Methods of Test

  Project Data
Funds: $218,529
Staff Responsibility: Edward T. Harrigan
Research Agency: AASHTO Material Reference Laboratory
Principal Investigator: Haleh Azari
Effective Date: 10/7/2010
Comments: Work is in progress on Task Order #2.

The objective of this research is to develop or update precision and bias statements for AASHTO standard test methods.

Task Order #1 investigated specific sources of variability in AASHTO T 209, Theoretical Maximum Specific Gravity and Density of Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA), and quantified their effects on the precision of the method.

In Task Order #2, precision statements for eight AASHTO test methods are being updated through data mining and an interlaboratory study..

The project final report for Task Order #1 is summarized in NCHRP Research Results Digest 369: AASHTO T 209: Effect of Agitation Equipment Type on Theoretical Maximum Specific Gravity Values. The full text of the project final report is available for download as "Refinement of AASHTO T 209."
