Download or read book Accelerated Performance related Tests for Asphalt aggregate Mixes and Their Use in Mix Design and Analysis Systems written by University of California, Berkeley and published by National Research Council. This book was released on 1994 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report provides a brief summary of the processes that led to the selection of performance-related tests to define asphalt-aggregate interactions that result in fatigue, permanent deformation, thermal cracking, aging, and water sensitivity. Inherent in this test selection process was the emphasis on the ability of the tests to measure fundamental material properties that, when incorporated into prediction models, will depend less on empirical correlations than has been traditionally the case. Also included are the results of validation studies for each of the tests and frameworks for the use of the tests in mix design and analysis. Several levels of design are provided for each distress, some of which incorporate reliability concepts.

Book excerpt: Summarizes research results concerned with the behavior of asphalt-aggregate mixes for pavements. An objective of this project was the development of a series of accelerated performance tests for asphalt-aggregate mixes together with methods for analyzing asphalt-aggregate interactions which significantly affect performance. Methodologies to define the fatigue, permanent deformation, thermal cracking, water sensitivity, and aging characteristics are described and use of these procedures in mix design/analysis stems which permit performance predictions under a variety of environmental and traffic loading conditions is illustrated.

This book was released on 1994 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP) was a highly focused, ambitious research effort that targeted four specific areas for intense study over the time frame from 1987 to 1993. Asphalt was one of the four study areas. This report describes the Superpave system, the final product of the asphalt research program; and the various parts that comprise its operational characteristics. In all, the final report of the SHRP Asphalt Research Program consists of five parts, the contents of which are briefly described in this report. Reference is made within this report to specific details within the other four parts for readers who want a more detailed description of the methodology, test methods, and theory behind Superpave.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Moisture damage of asphalt mixes, better known as stripping, is a major distress affecting pavement performance. AASHTO T 283 (KT-56) has been used by many agencies over the past decade to detect moisture susceptible pavements through the determination of a tensile strength ratio (TSR). Results from AASHTO T 283 (KT-56) have been inconsistent. As a result, there has been increased interest in finding an alternative test method. Preliminary indications reveal that loaded wheel rut testers, such as the Asphalt Pavement Analyzer (APA), have the potential to detect moisture susceptible mixtures. To date no standard test methodology has been developed. The objective of this project was to evaluate the effects of sample preconditioning on APA rut depths and to further evaluate the APA's suitability for predicting moisture susceptible mixtures. Eight different mixes from seven project sites were evaluated with the APA. Samples were tested at 40 deg C using four different preconditioning procedures: dry, soaked, saturated, and saturated with a freeze cycle. The results were compared with TSR values, methylene blue values and sand equivalent. The APA was able to identify every mix with a failing TSR.
