Book A Field Study of the Stripping Potential of Asphalt Concrete Mixtures

Download or read book A Field Study of the Stripping Potential of Asphalt Concrete Mixtures written by Frazier Parker and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An earlier laboratory study with representative Alabama materials illustrated the difficulties inherent in predicting field stripping performance with available laboratory testing procedures. A part of the problem appeared to be the inability to accurately model construction conditions in the laboratory. This study examined and modified laboratory conditions to better simulate construction conditions, particularly residual aggregate moisture. It was found that the wet-dry tensile test does a reasonably good job of designing and controlling mixes comprised primarily of siliceous sand-gravel. However, additional testing should be conducted to further develop procedures for including residual aggregate moisture during mix design.

Book Stripping of Asphalt Concrete

Download or read book Stripping of Asphalt Concrete written by Frazier Parker and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The freeze thaw stress pedestal test, the boil test and the indirect tensile test were evaluated for assessing the stripping potential of typical Alabama asphalt concrete mixes and the effectiveness of antistripping additives. This was accomplished by testing surface and base/ binder mixes with five aggregate combinations, two sources of asphalt cement and three antistripping additives. Because of the test complexity and lack of a strong correlation with stripping performance, the freeze thaw stress pedestal test is not recommended. The boil and indirect tensile tests, in combination, offer a viable, although, imperfect, system for stripping evaluation. The lack of a strong correlation with reported field performance detracts from both tests. However, the imprecise and subjective nature of the reported performance and the correlations obtained by others are mitigating factors.

Book Moisture Damage in Asphalt Concrete

Download or read book Moisture Damage in Asphalt Concrete written by Russell G. Hicks and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 1991 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synthesis will be of interest to pavement designers, construction engineers, maintenance engineers, and others interested in avoiding or limiting moisture damage in asphalt concrete. Information is provided on physical and chemical explanations for moisture damage in asphalt concrete, along with a discussion of current practices and test methods for determining or reducing the susceptibility of various asphalt concrete components and mixtures to such damage. Moisture damage in asphalt concrete is a nationwide problem which often necessitates premature replacement of highway pavement surfaces. This report of the Transportation Research Board describes the underlying physical and chemical phenomena responsible for such damage. Current test methods used to determine the susceptibility of asphalt concretes, or their constituents, to moisture damage are described and evaluated. Additionally, current practices for minimizing the potential for moisture damage are examined.

Book A Literature Review of Liquid Antistripping and Tests for Measuring Stripping

Download or read book A Literature Review of Liquid Antistripping and Tests for Measuring Stripping written by Christine W. Curtis and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this literature review is to search the literature in the area of chemical and mineral agents used to promote adhesion of asphalt-aggregate mixes. In addition, tests performed to measure the effectiveness of these agents were reviewed. The information gained through this literature search and review provides background information for the research being performed in the SHRP A-003B contract. This literature search was performed using on-line chemical abstracts for documents in the time period of 1967 to present.

Book Bangladesh II  Climate Change Impacts  Mitigation and Adaptation in Developing Countries

Download or read book Bangladesh II Climate Change Impacts Mitigation and Adaptation in Developing Countries written by Md. Nazrul Islam and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-08-03 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume aims to develop a framework for disaster and climate risk resilient livelihood system in Bangladesh using a policy oriented approach. It highlights the possible impacts of climate change on groundwater based irrigation in the country. Climate change is one of biggest challenges to society. It can lead to serious impacts on production, life and environment on a global scale. Higher temperatures and sea level rise will cause flooding and water salinity problems which will bring about negative effects on agriculture and high risks to industry and socio-economic systems in the future. Climate change will lead to many changes in global development and security especially energy, water, food, society, job, diplomacy, culture, economy and trade. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) defines climate change as: “Any change in climate over time, whether due to natural variability or as a result of human activity.” Global climate change has emerged as a key issue in both political and economic arenas. It is an increasingly questioned phenomenon, and progressive national governments around the world have started taking action to respond to these environmental concerns.
