From this year research, the specification for the production and construction of SMA using maximum aggregate 13 mm was made. In this research, the possibility to produce the 13 mm SMA mixture from domestic asphalt concrete plants was confirmed. From actual applications of SMA in the field, the possibility to minimize the rutting was shown. It was also shown that the Skid Resistance increased when the SMA was used because the textured surface prevented the formation of thin water film on the surface when it rains. It was observed that the noise level decreased because the voids on the textured surface were connected.
