Dear Paul,

To my opinion, the permeability of the asphalt layer, as measured in standard
laboratory conditions, is not a important parameter. The water entry will not occur
through this material, but through its cracks, which will appear after two, three or
four years. The waterproofing layer is installed to prevent water entry after
appearence of small cracks in the pavement, and thus reduces the degradation of the
roadway surface (potholes, frost action, etc.).

You will find many references and research results related to the efficiency of this
kind of interlayer in one of the four RILEM conferences proceedings, which should be
in a university near you. The web page of the last RILEM conference, held in ottawa
a few month ago, is :
