Caption: Red bins containing varying mixtures of aggregate, sand and other binder materials used to create asphalt concrete samples are displayed in the Modified Asphalt Research Center (MARC) at the University of Wisconsin-Madison on May 23, 2008. As part of a new national research program called the Asphalt Research Consortium (ARC), UW-Madison civil engineering professor Hussain Bahia, who leads the asphalt lab, is now using $5 million in funding to study ways of making asphalt more environmentally sustainable.
