Book Polymerized Crumb Rubber Modified Mixtures in Minnesota

Download or read book Polymerized Crumb Rubber Modified Mixtures in Minnesota written by and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research program was based on laboratory and field studies. All work was limited to the use of a 10-mesh crumb rubber in the dry process. An evaluation of the asphalt-rubber interactions indicated that there should be a reasonable level of interaction between the crumb rubber and the asphalt cement selected for the project. A suggested criterion for defining an acceptable level of interaction would be to establish a minimum viscosity of 15 Poise (Brookfield viscosity) for a neat asphalt cement modified with 20% crumb rubber. When designing a crumb rubber modified mixture, the aggregate gradation should be substantially gapped. The target gradation used in the construction of the Babbit, Minnesota test sections should be adjusted for crumb rubber gradations volumetrically; generally, 1 gram of crumb rubber occupies the same volume as 3 grams of aggregate for a given sieve size. The optimum asphalt content for crumb rubber mixtures should be based on air voids from 1.5 to 3%.

Download or read book Mixture Desigh sic and Performance Prediction of Rubber modified Asphalt in Ohio written by Robert Y. Liang and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mixture design and performance characteristics of crumb rubber modified asphalt concretes were investigated in this research project to meet the requirements of the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA) of 1991, which has required each State to incorporate scrap tire rubber into its asphalt paving materials. Specifically, the objectives of this research encompass the following: (i) investigation of the rheological properties of asphalt-rubber binder to determine optimum content of crumb rubber; (ii) development of optimum mix design for various applications, including both wet and dry mix processes; (iii) characterization of mechanical properties of recommended paving mixtures, including resilient modulus, fatigue cracking behavior, low-temperature thermal cracking resistance, water sensitivity test, incremental creep test and loaded wheel track test; and (iv) comparison of performance of selected paving mixes.

Book Modified Asphalt

Download or read book Modified Asphalt written by Jose Luis Rivera Armenta and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2018-09-19 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Asphalt modification is an important area in the development of new road and pavement materials. There is an urgent demand for road materials that can minimize fracture at low temperatures and increase resistance to deformation at high temperatures. The function of asphalt is to bind aggregate to protect it from water and other harmful agents. In the beginning asphalt was ideal for this purpose, but recently traffic loads have increased and environmental factors have deteriorated more rapidly than before. Asphalt is a byproduct of crude oil in the refining process, and it is considered a complex heterogeneous mixture of hydrocarbons. Asphalt modification has become an important research area, using several methods and new materials as modifiers.

Book Uses of Recycled Rubber Tires in Highways

Download or read book Uses of Recycled Rubber Tires in Highways written by Jon A. Epps and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 1994 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synthesis on the use of recycled rubber tires in highways will be of interest to administrators and policy-makers; pavement, materials, geotechnical, environmental, and traffic operations engineers; and research engineers involved with highway design and construction issues. Information is provided on the uses of rubber tires in asphalt paving materials as well as other uses, such as on fills and embankments, for erosion control and on railroad grade crossings. Specifically, information is included which identifies the agencies using or implementing applications for recycled rubber tires and defines the design parameters, technical and construction limitations, performance, costs, benefits, environmental limitations, specifications, and availability. This synthesis of information defines the use of recycled rubber tires in highways and is based on a review of nearly 500 references and on information recorded from state highway agency responses to a 1991 survey of practice. Updates are included for as much of the state practice information possible through 1993. The use of scrap tires for highway applications is dynamic with regard to policy and technical issues. Therefore, the reader should keep in mind that the information presented reflects the best available data at a particular time. The synthesis also identifies current research in the topic area, critical research needs, and legislative issues that affect application and use of recycled rubber tires.

Book Utilization of Crumb Rubber Modifier in Asphalt Concrete Mixtures

Download or read book Utilization of Crumb Rubber Modifier in Asphalt Concrete Mixtures written by Khaled Saeed and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2014-02 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Disposal of waste tires has been known as a serious environmental problem. Since burying tires in landfills is not an easy solution either, highway engineers around the world have tried to incorporate scrap tire rubber in asphalt pavements as a modifier. This book investigate the use of Crumb Rubber Modifier (CRM) as a waste material in modifying the performance of the asphalt concrete mixtures. HMA mixtures characterization in terms of fatigue cracking and rutting resistance was analyzed and evaluated to determine the effects of the crumb rubber on the mixtures' performance. In addition, studying the effect of various environmental effects such as temperature, aging and moisture damage on the mechanical properties of the asphalt concrete mixtures. Several tests were used such as indirect tensile strength, indirect tensile fatigue and static creep test.
