Distresses are integral parts of pavement that occur during the life of the road. Bitumen distress is known as one of the most important problems of Iran's roads, especially in tropical areas and transit routes with heavy axes; so, identifying the effective factors in creating the bleeding phenomenon is very necessary and important. Therefore, this study was conducted to investigate the parameters of the mixing design in creation of bleeding phenomenon and its severity. The collected data were then analyzed and grouped using Design Expert and SPSS software. The results show that all five parameters of optimal bitumen percent, bitumen percent in asphalt mixture, void percent of Marshall Sample, percent void and filler to bitumen ratio are effective on bitumen and its intensity. Among the mentioned parameters, two parameters of percent of bitumen compared to asphalt mixture and the void percent in the Marshall sample have a greater effect on the severity of the bleeding phenomenon.
