BY AsphaltPro Staff
Asphalt Testing Solutions & Engineering (ATS), Jacksonville, Florida, offers asphalt performance testing and mix design. ATS operates its performance testing lab on Duval Asphalt’s production facility. The performance lab is AASHTO accredited for hot-mix asphalt, aggregates and asphalt binder testing, and is also validated by the US Army Corp of Engineers’ Material Testing Center. The ATS Mix Design lab is part of the performance lab providing custom designs for Superpave, porous friction course, Marshall, FAA, cold recycled asphalt and pavement preservation. Because it is housed on an asphalt producer’s site, ATS can run research mixes through the plant to provide realistic handling and sampling data.
The ATS performance testing lab offers services such as Semi-Circular Bend (SCB), Cantabro, Draindown, IDEAL-CT, Interlayer Shear Strength (Bond Strength), Indirect Tensile Strength (IDT), Tensile Strength Ratio (TSR), Hamburg Wheel Tracking (HWT), Asphalt Pavement Analyzer (APA), Asphalt Ignition Oven, Marshall Stability and Flow, Bulk Specific Gravity and Maximum Specific Gravity. As performance testing requirements are implemented around the country, the team at ATS is equipped to design balanced mix design and test materials to predict future behavior of pavements.
