Volumetric and SPT test results were compiled and a Microsoft Excel-based tool (NCHRP 09-22) [13] was used to predict the distresses corresponding to the properties of each mix. The distresses were predicted based on
two different sets of data for comparison:
1. One |E*| value for each batch selected at a temperature and frequency combination relating to the prevalent traffic and climatic conditions, and
2. Complete |E*| data (mastercurve) from the SPT test. Since hot climatic conditions prevail in that region, the analysis focuses on rutting which is the most critical distress in such a case.
