• Telephone survey in 2010 and since indicate that there are barriers to state MSCR implementation– Inadequate DSR equipment/software– Lack of resources to perform transitional testsp– Lack of guidance from suppliers and other
states– Uncertainty about effect on binder supply and
modification

Survey Results - Barriers
• 9 of 14 states said biggest barrier was ggconcerns over correlation between existing PG Plus and new MSCR criteria
• Comment:– Satisfied with the PG 76-22 polymer modifiedSatisfied with the PG 76 22 polymer modified
binder performance. There is a perception that moving to MSCR test may result in lower polymer loading and reduction in binder performance.

Implementation
Recognize that the refineries that serve your state may also serve bordering states.This may be a good reason to work with other y gstates to implement regionally
Note that every Performance Grade may notNote that every Performance Grade may not equate to a distinct MSCR grade - for example, the current polymer loading in both a PG 70-22 and PG 76-22 may be high enough that both grade to a “PG 64-22 E”

Implementation
Some agencies may be reluctant to implementSome agencies may be reluctant to implement MSCR fully, since the names by which they refer to binder types will necessarily change.“PG 64-22 H” instead of “PG 70-22,” for a possible examplep

Why MSCR?
• Why Use the MSCR Test and Spec?Why Use the MSCR Test and Spec?– Non-recoverable creep compliance, Jnr, is
better correlated with pavement rutting thanbetter correlated with pavement rutting than G*/sin δ
• The high temperature parameter is truer to the g p pintent of the PG specification, that it be blind to method of modification

Why MSCR?
• Why Use the MSCR Test and Spec?Why Use the MSCR Test and Spec?– MSCR Recovery can be used to identify
elastomeric modification thereby eliminatingelastomeric modification, thereby eliminating the need for many PG-Plus tests like Elastic Recoveryy
• Much quicker test• Not directly tied to performance
