In this research, a new mix design method which includes the performance concept was proposed by investigating the effect of the Marshall Properties of the asphalt concrete mixture on the performance of the pavements and by developing the performance prediction model. During the first year of this research, the Marshall Properties test, the Resilient Modulus test, and the Indirect Tensile Strength test were conducted using the specimens made in the Highway Research Center. The relationship between the Resilient Modulus test and the Marshall Properties and also the relationship between each of the Marshall Property were analyzed and the current mix design method was reviewed.
