Abstract
The study investigated both the Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) and Warm Mix Asphalt (WMA) mixes. The focus was the comparison of the performance of both mixes using local materials under Western Australia conditions. The study presents the evaluation of the potential benefits of producing WMA with different percentages of Sasobit with the aim to validate WMA with Sasobit as a viable alternative to HMA.
