Book Advances in Asphalt Materials

Download or read book Advances in Asphalt Materials written by Shin-Che Huang and published by Woodhead Publishing. This book was released on 2015-04-08 with total page 493 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The urgent need for infrastructure rehabilitation and maintenance has led to a rise in the levels of research into bituminous materials. Breakthroughs in sustainable and environmentally friendly bituminous materials are certain to have a significant impact on national economies and energy sustainability. This book will provide a comprehensive review on recent advances in research and technological developments in bituminous materials. Opening with an introductory chapter on asphalt materials and a section on the perspective of bituminous binder specifications, Part One covers the physiochemical characterisation and analysis of asphalt materials. Part Two reviews the range of distress (damage) mechanisms in asphalt materials, with chapters covering cracking, deformation, fatigue cracking and healing of asphalt mixtures, as well as moisture damage and the multiscale oxidative aging modelling approach for asphalt concrete. The final section of this book investigates alternative asphalt materials. Chapters within this section review such aspects as alternative binders for asphalt pavements such as bio binders and RAP, paving with asphalt emulsions and aggregate grading optimization. - Provides an insight into advances and techniques for bituminous materials - Comprehensively reviews the physicochemical characteristics of bituminous materials - Investigate asphalt materials on the nano-scale, including how RAP/RAS materials can be recycled and how asphalt materials can self-heal and rejuvenator selection

Book Development of Mix Design Procedures for Gap graded Asphalt rubber Asphalt Concrete

Download or read book Development of Mix Design Procedures for Gap graded Asphalt rubber Asphalt Concrete written by Anne Stonex and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A research project was conducted to identify and document current modifications to ARIZONA 815c (75-blow Marshall method) used to develop gap-graded asphalt rubber asphalt concrete (GG AR AC) mix designs, and to develop and test improvements to provide a standard mix design method for use by contractors and consultants. Based on field performance data provided by the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT), the existing mix design method was successful and should serve as the standard for comparison of proposed improvements. Best practices were synthesized to develop proposed improvements. Three aggregate sources and two asphalt rubber (AR) binders were used for initial testing of the existing (control) mix design method and of the proposed changes. Rebound of compacted AR AC specimens was evaluated, as were Rice test results at 6% and 7% AR binder by weight of mix. The composition of the AR binders (rubber gradation and content) had more effect on the results than which mix design method was used. Additional replicate testing was performed by MACTEC and ADOT to confirm these findings. Changes to the AR AC mix design method consist primarily of making and curing Rice specimens in the same manner as Marshall specimens, tighter temperature ranges for mixing and compaction, incorporating Asphalt Institute calculations in a "User's Guide," and improving presentation. An ADOT construction project was used as an "acid test" to pilot the proposed mix design method and provide materials for a four-laboratory round robin to evaluate the precision of testing AR AC materials. The precision of round robin testing appears very similar to that of conventional asphalt concrete mixtures based on data from Proficiency Sample Programs of the AASHTO Materials Reference Laboratory and ADOT. The results indicate that the mix design method developed can be used by qualified laboratories to provide suitable AR AC mix designs

Book Evaluation of Pavement Friction Characteristics

Download or read book Evaluation of Pavement Friction Characteristics written by John Jewett Henry and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 2000 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synthesis report will be of interest to pavement design, construction, management, and research engineers, highway safety officials, and others concerned with pavement friction characteristics. It describes the current state of the practice and discusses the methods used for evaluating wet pavement friction characteristics of new and restored pavements. This synthesis reviews models used for measuring and evaluating friction and texture, causes for friction changes over time, and aggregate and mix design to provide adequate friction. Also presented are construction and surface restoration practices for providing good pavement surface characteristics. In addition, considerations of noise and ride quality are discussed when compromise may be required.
