Guideline for the Design and Use of Asphalt Pavements for ...

PREFACE
This document has been developed so as to aid in the proper design, construction, and maintenance of
asphalt pavements in Colorado. It is not intended to replace any standards or requirements that may be
established.
We would like to thank each of the representatives that reviewed a draft copy of the report and had input into
its final product. Like any document of this nature, changes, updates, and corrections will be needed. We envision an
updated version made every two to three years. Please let us know of any discrepancies that you come
across or insights that you have to strengthen the document in the next edition.
The document was originally developed based on one produced by the Missouri Asphalt Pavement
Association. Western Colorado Testing, Inc. of Grand Junction was retained by CAPA to coordinate its
development. We thank both of these organizations.
The second edition is based on the information contained in the first edition with update and additional
information from other Colorado Asphalt Pavement Association documents.
Through the development and use of this guide, we can further our mission of developing, improving, and
advancing the quality of asphalt pavements in Colorado. Hopefully, you will find it to be an effective
resource.
