This course provides the development of Asphalt Mixture Performance Tester and describes how the AMPT can be used in pavement structural design and mixture design. The AMPT is a testing machine specifically designed to measure asphalt mixture engineering properties. With AMPT, a mixture’s rutting resistance can be quickly evaluated using the flow number test. The Coarse material is based on FHWA Publication Number FHWA-HIF-13-005: Asphalt Mixture Performance Tester.

At the conclusion of this course, the learner should be able to have a better understanding about the Importance of Asphalt Mixture Performance Tester for Pavement Structural Design as well as the following:

• Understands Applications of Asphalt Mixture Performance Tester
• Knowledge of using AMPT as testing equipment in the laboratory
• Understanding about various sampling and testing methods
