The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) has implemented a new quality control/quality assurance (QC/QA) specification for asphalt concrete. As part of this implementation, Caltrans realized the need for objective feedback on its design and implementation and selected Nichols Consulting Engineers to perform this study. The study’s objectives and the research approach used and a description of the projects included in the study are presented, along with recommendations and findings. Lessons learned from the Caltrans experience are shared to the benefit of other states implementing QC/QA specifications for asphalt concrete.
