This report presents Tables and Figures which summarize the HBP Quality Level Analysis (QLA) for projects completed in 1996, the second season using the latest significant revision to the specifications. The quality Level (QL) for the elements (sieve analysis, asphalt content, and pavement density) and the item composites are summarized. While QL determines Pay Factor (PF), it is also used to rank contractors' performance. The item QL improved 1.3 percentage points in 1996 over 1995. But the incentive/disincentive payments were not sufficient to cause some of the contractors to improve their process control. Both, the better and porrer performing contractors show up with similar rankings from year to year. The QLA specifications essentially are serving satisfactorily. Implementation: The PF formulas were modified for the 1997 season so as to make the pF continuous in relation to the QL, rather than in steps as has been the procedure. It is suggested the methods of applying weight factors to the element QL's for PF calculations be reviewed for possible changes. Some other changes in the specification and computer software are needed.
