Summary:
Asphalt-rubber concrete and an asphalt concrete control were tested in the laboratory and materials characterizations
were generated, including Marshall Stability, resilient modulus, fatigue and fracture properties, creep compliance, and
permanent deformation properties.  The characterization parameter and an airport runway model for a municipal airport
were input into the modified ILLIPAVE computer program for analysis of rutting and cracking damage and the relative
lives of the materials in each of four climatic zones.  An economic evaluation was then performed comparing the costs
and service lives of each material in each zone.
