Regarding HMA, the broad definition is "a lack of homogeneity in the hot mix asphalt constituents of the in-place mat of such a magnitude that there is a reasonable expectation of accelerated pavement distress(es)." Typically though, "segregation" refers to aggregate segregation, which is "the non-uniform distribution of coarse and fine aggregate components within the asphalt mixture."
