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 \u00e5p (permanent strain at flow), \u00e5r (recoverable strain at flow), \u00e5p\/\u00e5r (from the Fn test), and compliance (from the Ft test), and3. 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.
