TRB’s National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 547, Simple Performance Tests: Summary of Recommended Methods and Database examines the theory behind three simple performance tests for permanent deformation of hot-mix asphalt (HMA) and briefly describes the test methods.

A set of appendices, packaged with the report in DVD format, contains:

1. All test data, mixture data, master curves, and master curve parameters obtained from the E* testing and analysis,

2. All test and mixture data obtained from the Fn and Ft tests, including åp (permanent strain at flow), år (recoverable strain at flow), åp/år (from the Fn test), and compliance (from the Ft test), and

3. A collection of technical reports, theses and dissertations, and other relevant documents prepared during the course of NCHRP Project 9-19 and its predecessor FHWA project to support the development of the simple performance tests.
