Book Advances in Aggregates and Armourstone Evaluation

Download or read book Advances in Aggregates and Armourstone Evaluation written by John-Paul Latham and published by Geological Society of London. This book was released on 1998 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The maintenance and upgrading of our built environment, including large sections of coastal defences, relies heavily on natural construction materials. The text aims to highlight a range of pressing research issues in natural construction materials of direct relevance to an industry facing growing pressures for environmental sustainability and standardization of product quality within Europe. Tests and specifications given in the forthcoming Eurostandards for aggregates and armourstones are considered and correlated with older more widely used tests, including those which could impact upon current road safety. This text should be useful to: aggregate and amourstone suppliers and users; civil and engineering geologists; quarry companies; and Local and County Authority engineers and coastal engineers.

Book Laboratory Evaluation of Friction Loss and Compactability of Asphalt Mixtures

Download or read book Laboratory Evaluation of Friction Loss and Compactability of Asphalt Mixtures written by and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study aimed to develop prediction models for friction loss and laboratory compaction of asphalt mixtures. In addition, the study evaluated the effect of compaction level and compaction method on skid resistance and the internal structure of asphalt mixtures. The predictive model for friction loss was developed based on parameters that describe aggregate texture and angularity before and after polishing, aggregate gradation, and polishing cycles in the laboratory. Squared-shape slabs of asphalt mixtures were prepared in the laboratory using a linear kneading compactor and polished using a wheel-polishing device. The frictional characteristics were measured after different intervals of polishing cycles. Mixtures with coarser aggregate gradation were found to have better skid resistance than those with fine aggregate gradation. The friction loss model was found to correlate very well with the experimental measurements. The predictive model for laboratory compaction of asphalt mixtures was developed based on parameters that describe aggregate shape characteristics, aggregate gradation, binder content, and binder properties at compaction temperatures. The researchers executed intensive laboratory experiments to quantify the effect of these parameters on the compaction of asphalt mixture in the laboratory. Two models that describe slope and intercept of the laboratory compaction curves of asphalt mixtures were developed. These models showed strong correlations between the predicted values and the measured ones. These models provide essential inputs to quantify the compaction effort needed to compact asphalt mixtures. In the last phase of this study, the researchers evaluated the effect of compaction level and compaction method on skid resistance and internal structure of asphalt pavements. The vibratory roller was found to yield a smoother surface than the static roller. In addition, the results confirmed that the vibratory roller was more effective in reducing the air voids than the static roller. Moreover, the test sections compacted using the vibratory roller had more uniform air void distribution compared to the test sections compacted using the static roller.

Book Implementation of AIMS in Measuring Aggregate Resistance to Polishing  Abrasion and Breakage

Download or read book Implementation of AIMS in Measuring Aggregate Resistance to Polishing Abrasion and Breakage written by Eyad Masad and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The report presents efforts undertaken to help in the implementation of the Aggregate Imaging System (AIMS) in Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) operations. These efforts focus on measuring aggregate shape properties and texture of polishing coupons supplied by TxDOT, compilation of a database of aggregate properties measured at TxDOT and Texas Transportation Institute (TTI), and analysis of the aggregate properties. The report also includes the development of new methods for measuring aggregate resistance to polishing, abrasion, and breakage.
