Does HMA Exhibit an Endurance Limit?
Monismith et al., 1970 Carpenter et al., 2003
HMA EL (Prowell et al., 2009):
Strain level yields 50 millions load repetitions until failure

Research Problem Statement and objectives
The EL concept has not been totally implemented in
AASHTOWare Pavement ME Design software
No current methodology to consider the effect of the
environmental conditions, traffic condition, mix design,
and material properties together in the EL calculations
Develop an algorithm to determine EL that is compatible
with the AASHTOWare-ME software

New EL Definition
EL is a result of a balance of
damage caused by loading and
healing or damage recovery
that occurs during rest periods

Incorporation of EL into AASHTOWare-ME 1. Calculation of Endurance Limit
SR = f (Eo ,et, N, and RP)
N = Number of cycles
N of 20,000 is recommended
RP= Rest Period (sec)
RP = t / ∑(NT)
Eo, Initial Stiffness (ksi)

Incorporation of EL into AASHTOWare-ME
2. Incorporation of EL into Fatigue Damage
Di= Σ (ni / Nfi)
D = Fatigue Damage
ni = Actual traffic for period i (Traffic Demand)
Nfi = Allowed Traffic in period i (Traffic Capacity)
If the calculated EL < the actual et, Damage is count
If the calculated EL ≥ the actual et, the Ni is infinity and
the Damage is zero

Conclusions
HMA exhibits endurance limit
Mixtures using softer binders exhibit higher endurance
limits than mixtures using stiffer binders
High binder contents and low air voids produced the
high endurance limit values
Endurance limit values were higher at high
temperatures
The endurance limit values from the beam fatigue
exhibit similar trends compared to those of the uniaxial
fatigue test
The endurance limits obtained in this study can be
incorporated in the AASHTOWare-ME

Recommendations Field calibration is needed
Consider other types of aggregates, and mixes such
as warm mix asphalt, asphalt rubber, and polymer
modified mixtures
