Level 2 Mix Design Specialist certification is a three-day certification course that certifies an individual’s ability to properly design and mix Hot Mix Asphalt. This course takes an individual through the processes needed to sample and test the individual components of materials that go into an asphalt pavement design, blend the design in a laboratory, then test the completed design in accordance with TxDOT test procedures to assure the design meets the required specifications.
