Using fracture energy to characterize the hot mix asphalt cracking resistance based on the directtensile test

Cracking is currently one of the most common distresses in hot mix asphalt (HMA) pavements, often costing the highway agencies million of dollars in maintenance and rehabilitation activities. Laboratory characterization of HMA cracking resistance thus constitutes a fundamental step in mix-design an...
