We're always stirring up something interesting in the BATT Lab! Asphalt binder testing can reveal a lot about how a pavement will perform. But we're not just interested in test results. We're interested in what those results mean for building better pavements. #BATTLab

That's some serious asphalt depth! These 6-inch-diameter, full-depth asphalt cores will be evaluated to help the client understand what's happening beneath the surface.  blankenshipasphalttech.com/a… #PavementForensics #AsphaltTesting #BATTLab

Headed to AMAP? Let’s talk better asphalt. Phil Blankenship and Zack McKay will be there. BATT is a conference break sponsor, so find them at the BATT booth, or at the break, and join the conversation. See you in Boston! #BATTLab #LabToPavement #AMAP2026

A million details. One remarkable office manager. Jessica works behind the scenes to keep BATT running smoothly. Today, we're shining the spotlight on someone whose contributions make a difference every day. Thank you, Jessica, for everything you do for BATT!  #BATTLab #TeamBATT

A runway isn’t simply a wider road. BATT helps airports evaluate mixes, provide QC/QA, and apply engineering expertise to help ensure those surfaces perform where it matters most. #BetterAsphaltTodayTomorrow

Asphalt segregation can undermine pavement performance before traffic ever touches it. Read the latest entry at BATT Tech Talk to learn what causes asphalt segregation and how to reduce the risk. blankenshipasphalttech.com/t… #BATTtechtalk #AsphaltLife #AsphaltSegregation

General aviation aircraft account for millions of takeoffs and landings each year. From developing the right mix to evaluating the condition of an existing runway, BATT provides the data and engineering expertise to make better pavement decisions. #BetterAsphaltTodayTomorrow

BATT extracts binder from asphalt pavement samples to help investigate what’s happening beneath the surface. We also evaluate plant-produced mixes and RAP. The findings pinpoint inconsistencies, guide mix adjustments, and develop practical remedies for pavement problems. #BATTLab

How much polishing can an asphalt mixture take before friction performance begins to change? BATT President Phil Blankenship joins Steve Goodman of Goodman Pavement and Materials Engineering at TAC Conf 2026 to present the findings. Going to TAC? Don't miss this one! #BATTLab

Testing binder recovered from RAP, plant-produced mix, or existing pavement cores provides data on binder stiffness and aging. Understanding what those results mean for your project is where BATT makes the difference. #BATTLab #LabToPavement #AsphaltLife

Is your asphalt training actually solving the problems your team faces? One-size-fits-all training can only take you so far. Target the gaps. Tackle the real-world challenges. Winter is coming. Schedule your team’s training now for the paving off-season. blankenshipasphalttech.com/a…

SVEM/DOE combines Sparse Vector Error Modeling with Design of Experiments to evaluate multiple material variables efficiently and predict which combinations are most likely to deliver the performance you need. Learn more: lnkd.in/ghmtSg9q #BATTLab #SVEMDOE #LabToPavement

Are you testing binder—or just accepting the grade? There’s more to binder performance than the number on the certificate. BATT can help you dig deeper. #BATTLab #LabToPavement #AsphaltLife

It was great to meet everyone who stopped by our booth at last week's North Central Asphat User/Producer Group conference in Madison, WI. BATT was pleased to sponsor this informative event. #BATTLab #LabToPavement #AsphaltLife

Asphalt keeps the economy moving, by providing jobs and the infrastructure that supports it. BATT has helped the U.S. achieve long-lasting pavement performance across thousands of miles of roadways, and we’re proud to support this industry. #BATTLab #AsphaltIndustry

Aggregate sources and binder formulations can vary widely. The new feedstock may meet specifications, but can you be sure the mix will perform as before? BATT’s asphalt performance testing can compare the modified mix with the original so you can pave with confidence. #BATTLab

Phil Blankenship and Oliver Hofstrom were on site recently at Huntington’s Tri-State Airport, with Phil providing QA oversight and technical support. West Virginia Paving, Inc. proved to be an efficient project partner on the rehabilitation of approximately 1,000 feet of runway.

It was great meeting everyone who stopped by the BATT booth at the 2026 ACEC-KY/FHWA/KYTC Partnering Conference in Lexington. Thanks for taking the time to connect with Oliver Hofstrom and learn more about BATT’s asphalt testing and engineering services. #BATTLab

BATT offers a broad range of aggregate testing capabilities to help producers, engineers, and mix designers better understand the materials going into the mix before they go into the pavement. Asphalt that stands the test of time starts with a rock solid foundation. #BATTLab

At SWIFT 2026, Mike Simons of Surface Tech will share more about this proven approach and its application on airport runways. If you’ll be at SWIFT, this is a presentation worth catching. #BATTLab #SurfaceTech #AsphaltLife
