Chapter 1, Problem 1.29QP
An asphalt concrete cylindrical specimen with a 4-in. diameter and a 6-in. height is subjected to an axial compressive static load of 150 lb for 1 hour, after which the load is removed. The test was performed at a temperature of 100°F. The height of the specimen was measured at different time intervals during loading and unloading for a total of 2 hours and produced the results shown in Table P1.29.
a. Using a spreadsheet program, plot the stress versus time and the strain versus time on two separate graphs.
b. How much is the elastic strain?
c. What is the permanent strain at the end of the experiment?
d. What is the phenomenon of the change of specimen height during static loading called? What is the phenomenon of the change of specimen height during unloading called?

The following data are recorded from a Bending Beam Rheometer test on asphalt binder:• Test temperature = - 1 8.0°C• Beam width = 12.70 mm• Beam Thickness = 6.35 mm• Distance between beam support = 102 mm.
Assuming the load and length of the beam are constants throughout the test:a) Plot the relationship between deflection and time.b) Plot the relationship between stiffness S(t) and time (t) on a logarithmic scale.c) Fit a second degree polynomial regression equation to the Log(S(t)) Vs. Log(t)relationship established in part (b) above.d) Use the regression equation to find the rate at which the creep stiffness changes withloading (m(t)) at the time increments shown in the above table.e) Demonstrate whether this asphalt meets the Superpave requirements for low temperaturecracking or not.

1.46: A contractor claims that the mean compressive strength for a concrete mix is 5000 psi (μ) and that it has a standard deviation of 400 psi (σ). If you break 20 cylinders (N) and obtain a mean compressive strength of 4,800 psi (m), would you believe the contractor’s claim? Why? (Hint; Use statistical t-test.) Next, what is the maximum number of breaks (N) that could be performed that WOULD make you believe the contractor’s claim? Assume that the results wouldn’t change, i.e. σ = 400 psi and m = 4,800 psi. Recall that the equation to find the lower bound of a one sided distribution is LB = μ - (tσ)* σ/(N^0.5) Because the sample size is relatively small, use the ‘student t test’ to represent the normal distribution. You should have at least 95% confidence in the results. That means that α = 0.05. Keep in mind that this is a one tailed distribution, since we only care about the lower bound (i.e. meaning that we are only concerned about concrete that doesn’t meet our minimum strength…
