Description Testing was concerned with evaluating asphalt rubber (A/R) interlayers in regards to their effectiveness in minimizing reflective cracking. Viscosity and ductility tests were performed on the A/R binder. Two special tests, horizontal shear and vertical shear, were developed to compare A/R and RC-250 as a SAL. The vertical shear test indicated the principal benefits of the A/R came from maintaining its pliability at low temperatures. No significant difference was noted at 77 degrees F between the A/R and RC-250 by the vertical shear test.
