The design asphalt content varies for different material types, material
properties, loading levels, and environmental conditions: hot mix asphalt
(asphalt cement > 120C), cold mix asphalt (cutback and emulsion) plant
mix, bituminous mix, bituminous concrete, and many others.
Design method in Vietnam is seminar to Russia and ASTM (USA):
Marshall (ASTM D1559), and Hveem (ASTM D1560);
Marshall is more popular due to be simpler;
Fundamental to each design are the following:
Traffic loading (volume and weight),
Soil-support capability (including
drainage considerations),
Material specifications (aggregate
and asphalt).

The basic steps required for performing Marshall mix design are as
follows:
Aggregate evaluation
Asphalt cement evaluation
Specimen preparation
There are two major features of the Marshall method of mix design:
Marshall stability and flow measurement
Density and voids analysis
Design asphalt content determination
The resistance to plastic deformation of a compacted cylindrical specimen
of bituminous mixture is measured when the specimen is loaded
diametrically at a deformation rate of 50 mm/minute.

To evaluate the structural response of the asphalt pavement system, the modulus
of asphalt concrete material is needed;
The diametral tensile resilient modulus is computed as
Based on Marshall stability (S - kN) and flow (F - mm), Young modulus of asphalt
concrete can be determined based on Nijboers experimental equation:
