The NCAT Pavement Test Track was originally constructed as a
result of interest and support from state Departments of Transportation (DOTs)
who shared a concern for building and preserving safe, sustainable, resilient,
and cost-effective pavement infrastructure.
Track research operations began in the summer of 2000. Forty-six 200-ft test sections were
subjected to 10 million equivalent single axle loadings (ESALs) of heavy truck
traffic through December of 2002. Test
sections were rebuilt in 2003, 2006, 2009, 2012, 2015, 2018, and 2021 with 10
million ESALs applied within each 3-year research cycle. NCAT began formally partnering with the
Minnesota Road Research Project (MnROAD) in 2015 to execute nationally relevant
research in both mix performance testing and pavement preservation. Positive experiences with implementable
findings that reduce the life cycle cost of flexible pavements and facilitate
rapid deployment of sustainable technologies have made this research an
outstanding investment for numerous state DOTs, who pool their resources to
share the cost of construction, operations, and research in a cooperative
manner. The summer 2024 rebuild is the
starting point for the nineth research cycle, with many high reward research
options available for potential sponsors.
NCAT is again partnering with MnROAD in the 2024 research cycle to
execute a pavement performance experiment with nationwide implementation
impact.
The primary objectives of the pooled fund project described
herein will be:
The scope of work for the pooled fund project will include:
This project is expected to be eligible for 100% SP&R funding. Each sponsor participating in the study is asked to contribute funding as a function of the scope of their selected research.
