Correction Factor (Percent by mass of HMA Specimen): 1.01 %
Moisture Content: 0.01 %
Temperature Compensation Factor: 0.22 %
Test Temperature: 538 C
Corrected Asphalt Binder Content: 7.65 %
General comments (publicly viewable) (Max 1000 characters): AASHTO T 308 section A2.8.1 If the asphalt binder correction factor exceeds 1.0 percent, the test temperature should be lowered. It did not exceed over 1.0%. therefore, we did not lower the temperature.
