This spreadsheet has been developed as an aid in performing HMA mix designs, following procedures
developed as part of NCHRP Project 9-33: A Mix Design Manual for Hot-Mix Asphalt. HMA Tools is
designed to be a comprehensive and flexible aid in performing mix designs, and as a result may contain
features that are not needed by many engineers and technicians responsible for developing HMA mix
designs. HMA Tools has been designed to be used in conjunction with the HMA Mix Design Manual
developed as part of NCHRP Project 9-33. Users may find reviewing pertinent parts of the manual useful
in learning hot to use this spreadsheet. Engineers and technicians already using a spreadsheet (or
similar tool) as an aid in developing HMA mix designs need not use HMA Tools.
This version--6.1--has been revised significantly earlier versions, through review by many engineers and
technicians not directly involved in NCHRP Project 9-33. The Investigators and Project Panel for the
project gratefully acknowledge their assistance in developing HMA Tools. Version 6.1 differs from 5.2 in a
number of ways. Worksheets "T_283" and "Performance" can now be used to record data for any of up
to seven trial batches. There are also now two reports--"Short_Report" gives a one page report on any
selected trial batch, and "Complete_Report," which provides a longer report on multiple trial batchers.
The aggregate gradation plot in worksheet "Trial_Blends" now uses a 0.45 power scale so that the
maximum density gradation plots as a straight line. Several other smaller changes and corrections have
been made.
Color Coding
All worksheets have been color coded to help the user recognize key sections. The main area of each
worksheet is white. Gray areas contain no data or formulas. Pink areas contain calculations that need
not be viewed by the user. Yellow areas in general contain optional information that the user might find
useful, but in many cases in non-essential to the mix design process.
Green cells indicate areas where data can be entered by the user. Other cells are protected, to prevent
accidental changes by the user. If you wish to modify a worksheet (or correct an error), the password for
protection is a single space.

Worksheets
HMA Tools is designed to be a comprehensive tool for assisting engineers and

technicians in developing HMA mix designs, and for this reason, it contains a large
number of seperate worksheets corresponding to the many steps in the mix design
process. Within the spreadsheet, the worksheets appear from right to left in the order in
which they would normally be used in developing a mix design. Each of these
worksheets is breifly described below.

during a mixture design; it is included for the convenience of engineers and technicians
who might wish to perform "what if?" analyses for a mixture before starting in on trial
mixtures. It can be used, for example, to estimate the proper amount of RAP to include
in a mixture given the grade of the new binder added to the mix, and the required final
blended binder grade.
RAP_Varaibility--data for calculating standard deviation for RAP gradations and RAP
binder content are entered in this worksheet. This data is then used to estimate the
maximum RAP content that can be used without exceeding given limits on mixture
variability. Use of this worksheet is not required for mix designs, since many agencies
have their own policies concerning maximum allowable RAP contents in HMA mix

Help for Worksheet "General"
This worksheet contains general, summary information for the mix design. Cells D3
through D15, along with cells D23, D24 and D28 should be filled out by the user. The
values in most of the other cells are protected; the values are determined by calculation
or logic and are not entered by the user. The specification limits given here are
dependent upon values entered in various cells at the top of the page and on values in
the worksheet "Specifications." However, cells for describing the source properties for
coarse aggregate (C33 AND C34) and fine aggregate (C38 and C39) should be filled if if
these optional properties are specified. Also, the sieve on which these source properties
are determined should be entered in cells E33:E34 (coarse aggregate) and cells
E38:E39 (fine aggregate). Only the 2.36, 4.75 or 9.5 mm sieves may be specified.
It is essential to fill in the selected target VMA value in cell D23 and the target air void
content in cell D24. Normally, the value as given in cell D20 should be used for the target
VMA; this represents the midpoint of the specified VMA range. However, some users
may wish to target VMA values closer to the upper or lower limit. The target air void
content is normally 4.0 %.
Specifying a "low" dust/binder ratio establishes slightly lower dust/binder ratios than the
standard range, which will tend to produce mixes with increased permeability and
decreased rut resistance. Therefore, "standard" should be specified, unless limitations in
local aggregates make achieving higher dust/binder ratios difficult or impossible.
The maximum allowable RAP content need not be filled out if no RAP is used in the mix
design. If RAP is being used, the value entered in cell D28 can be as specified by the
local agency, or it can be determined by an analysis of RAP variability as performed
using worksheet "RAP_variability (cell B14)." This maximum allowable RAP content is
independent of that found on the basis of binder grading--maximum (and minimum) RAP
contents based on asphalt binder grading are determined in worksheets "Binders" and
"RAP_Binders." The worksheet "RAP_binders can also be used to perform this
calculation, but this worksheet is meant as a stand-alone tool, and is not tied in to other

Help for Worksheet "Binder"
Data for up to four binders can be entered in this worksheet. Enter the binder specific gravity value in
cells D7, H7, L7 and P7. If the value is unknown, use the default value of 1.030.
Binder grading test data is entered in various green cells in the spreadsheet as indicated. Binder
grading data is only needed in two situations: (1) when more than 15 % RAP is used, and an estimate
of the resulting blended binder PG grade is needed; or (2) when estimates of mixture |E*| values (or
binder |G*| values) are needed. Binder low temperature grading can be done using either BBR data or
optional direct tension data. If both are entered, final grading will be based on the lowest of these two
procedures. NOTE THAT IF MIXTURE |E*| ESTIMATES ARE NEEDED, BBR GRADING DATA MUST
BE ENTERED. |E*| ESTIMATES CANNOT BE PERFORMED USING DIRECT TENSION GRADING
INFORMATION.

Help for Worksheet "Blended_Binders"
#VALUE!
This worksheet can be used to solve two different types of problems involving RAP and
#VALUE! asphalt binder grading:
#VALUE!
(1) It can be used to determine the minimum and maximum RAP contents required to obtain
#VALUE! a specified blended binder grade given a new binder grade.
#VALUE!
(2) it can be used to determine the required new binder grade given the amount of RAP to
#VALUE! be included in the mix design.
#VALUE!
HMA Tools automatically performs calculations related to RAP contents and blended binder
#VALUE! grades when the proper worksheets are filled out--it is not necessary to use the worksheet
#VALUE! "Blended_Binders" when doing a mix design. This worksheet is intended as a stand-alone
tool in performing preliminary analyses of RAP mix designs, without having to completely
#VALUE! enter data in other worksheets. In fact, worksheet "Blended_Binders" can be used to solve
#VALUE! problems totally unrelated to data entered in other worksheets. However, problems related
to the data already entered into HMA tools can also be addressed--useful information from
other worksheets appears in yellow shaded cells to the left of green input cells for the
convenience of the user. The data in these yellow cells can be examined and appropriate
values then entered in the input ranges in worksheet "Blended_Binders" as needed. Again,
40 analyses performed on this worksheet will not affect data or calculations any where else
within HMA Tools--this is a stand-alone worksheet for solving problems related to blended
3.95 binder grades of HMA mixes containing RAP.
2.00
33.6 Binder grade requirements (for the final blended binder) are entered in cells C5:C8. The
yellow shaded cells to the right provide information on binder grades already entered in
worksheet "Binders." Estimated binder content and absorption for the mix design are
#VALUE!
entered in cells C11:C12. The RAP blend percentages (% by weight of up to four different
#VALUE!
RAP stockpiles) are entered in cells C16:C19. The total binder content and absorption for
#VALUE!
these four RAP stockpiles are entered in cells C22:D25. For reference, binder information
for any RAP materials entered in worksheet "RAP_Aggregates" appear in the yellow shaded
#VALUE! area to the right of these cells.
RAP binder grading information is entered in cells C30:E33. Data from RAP binders entered
in worksheet "RAP_Binders" appears to the right in the yellow shaded cells. Continuous
grading information for the binder in the RAP blend appears in cells C36:C38.
For the type of problem where the allowable range in RAP content needs to be determined
for a given new binder PG grade, the grading information for the new binder is entered in
cells C43:C45 and C47. The absolute minimum and maximum RAP contents required to
meet the stated grade requirements are given in cells C61 and C62. However, HMA Tools
assumes that a minimum RAP content of 15 % can be used regardless of binder grading
requirements,and that a RAP content of 50 % should never be exceeded. Therefore, the
final recommended range in RAP content--considering the 15 % minimum and 50 %
maximum values--appear in cells C64 and C65, respectively.
For the second type of problems, where the required new binder PG grade is determined
given a certain percentage of RAP, the RAP content (in weight %) is entered in cell C70. The
required PG grade for the new binder appears in cell C80. As in many other places in HMA
Tools, the PG grade included the required intermediate temperature grade in paratheses, in
between the high and low temperature gardes. NOTE--the required grade given in cell C80
represents the combination of the lowest high-temperature and highest low-temperature PG
grade meeting the requirements. Several other PG grades may meet the required critical
temperatures given in cells C76:C78.

Help for Worksheet "Spec_Grav"
This spreadsheet is used to calculate specific gravity values for the initial trial mixture(s), using data d
specific gravity values calculated using some other method.
Bulk specific gravity, dry basis, can be calculated following either the weight in water/SSD method or
are entered in cells C7:W9, data for the wax/parafilm method are entered in cells C20:W23. User-calc
values are entered only in one set of cells. The user should note output in cells C12 through W12. An
absorption is above 2.0 %, and the bulk specific gravity should be tested using the wax/parafilm proce
specimens showing high absorption.
Data for the maximum specific gravity calculation are entered in cells C39:W40 and C42:W42 for the
pyncnometer method. User-calculated values may be entered in cells C64:W64. Again, make certain
absorption, the dry-back procedure should be used which results in a weight in air and also a surface
optional dry-back method is used.
Volumetric analysis of the resulting data are given at the bottom of this worksheet. In the volumetric a
over each mixture. Additional analyses and plots appear in the worksheet "Analysis."
