Developing a Boiling Test to Quantify Effective Bonding of Aggregates with Binder
Cuciniello, Giacomo (2013-08-25)The main purpose of asphalt mixture production is the coating of mineral aggregates with asphalt binder within a reasonable time frame. Coating is required as it affects mixtures workability (e.g., lubricant effect of ... -
Developing Evaluation Method of Moisture Susceptibility for Cold Mix Asphalt
Ling, Cheng (2013-12)Executive Summary Cold Mix Asphalt (CMA) serves as a promising alternative for a wide range of paving applications from preventative maintenance and repair, to full-scale pavement construction. Compared to traditional Hot ... -
Importance of Asphalt Binder Properties on Rut Resistance of Asphalt Mixture
Arshadi, Amir (2013-05-19)Permanent deformation in asphalt mixture, also known as ?rutting?, is one of the most important distresses observed in asphalt pavements. Rutting in the asphalt mixture layer is the permanent deformation of the asphaltic ... -
Investigation of Warm Mix Asphalt Additives Using the Science of Tribology to Explain Improvements in Mixture Compaction
Puchalski, Sebastian (2012-12-23)Part of asphalt pavement production is the compaction process of loose mix. The quality of compaction process has a profound impact on the quality of the final product. With the advent of Warm Mix Asphalt (WMA) additive ...
