As shown in Fig- ure 64, the majority of the cases showed differences between 4.4.3Effect of Dusty Conditions clean and dusty conditions. In general, dusty conditions exhib- of HMA Surface ited higher interface strength than clean conditions, especially Table 23 presents the statistical analysis of the effects of when tested with a confinement condition. One possible dusty conditions on ISS based on a two-tailed t-test at a 95% explanation for these results is that a high-viscosity, gritty confidence level. As shown in this table, results were mixed, mastic was formed when tack coat combined with dust and, with 13 out of the 24 cases indicating that dusty conditions thus, provided a greater resistance to shear movement.
