This book was released on 2016 with total page 9 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To improve the rutting resistance of the middle hot-mix asphalt (HMA) surface layer, composite modification of asphalt-concrete (AC) mixture by styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS) and anti-rutting additive (ARA) was studied. First, the wheel-tracking test, bending test, and indirect tensile test were conducted to evaluate the effect of three dosages of ARA on the high-temperature performance, low-temperature performance, and moisture susceptibility of SBS-modified AC mixture and the optimum dosage of ARA was determined. Then the high-temperature rutting-resistance performance of composite-modified AC mixtures was studied through the dynamic modulus test and uniaxial creep test. The results showed that the high-temperature performance of composite-modified AC mixture was significantly improved, but the low-temperature performance and moisture susceptibility were slightly declined compared to the control mixture (SBS-modified AC mixture without ARA). The values of E*/sin? of composite-modified AC mixture were larger than those of the control mixture at various test temperatures and loading frequencies. The values of permanent deformation and creep rate of composite-modified AC mixtures were smaller than those of the control mixture. In conclusion, composite-modified AC mixture has excellent high-temperature stability.

This book was released on 2001 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ohio Department of Transportation has adopted the hot mix asphalt concrete containing polymer modifiers for use in the interstate highway pavement. Among the various reasons cited for the adoption of polymer modifiers are the favorable field experiences by ODOT, extensive literatures reporting enhanced performance, such as rutting resistance, low temperature thermal cracking resistance, and possibly fatigue endurance. However, despite these favorable findings, there are still cases involving premature failure of hot mixtures containing polymer modifiers. Concerns regarding optimum polymer content, compatibility between polymer additives and asphalt cement, proper mixing and compaction procedure remain to be resolved. Furthermore, performance based specifications to ensure production of desirable final asphalt concrete product require additional development. Questions regarding the suitability of Superpave binder testing procedures for the polymer-modified binders need to be clarified.

Book Synopsis A New High Rutting Resistance Asphalt Mixture for Intersection Maintenance Under Heavy Traffic by : Yongsheng Guan
Download or read book A New High Rutting Resistance Asphalt Mixture for Intersection Maintenance Under Heavy Traffic written by Yongsheng Guan and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 6 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intersections of asphalt pavement are easily destroyed under heavy traffic in spite of several different technologies employed to combat such damage. Traditional high modulus asphalt mixtures were optimized according to the requirement of intersection maintenance. Penetration grade 40/60 base asphalt, an anti-rutting additive, and hard basalt aggregate were used to design a new high rutting resistance asphalt mixture. The air void content, compaction characteristics, water sensitivity, high temperature performance, and low temperature performance were investigated. Laboratory test results show that the new high rutting resistance asphalt mixture has very good high temperature performance and other beneficial characteristics. From the sensitivity analysis of the material composition, it can be deduced that the performance of the new high rutting resistance asphalt mixture is stable. Field tests also show that the new asphalt mixture is suitable for intersection maintenance of asphalt pavement and can be paved in one layer 9 to 14 cm in thickness.
Book Synopsis Comparison of Performance of Asphalt Mixtures Containing Polymer Modifiers by : Hamid Behbahani
Download or read book Comparison of Performance of Asphalt Mixtures Containing Polymer Modifiers written by Hamid Behbahani and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 5 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study is to evaluate and compare the properties of control and modified asphalt mixtures. Two polymers such as styrene butadiene styrene (SBS) and ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) were used as modifiers, and mixes with different percentages of polymers were prepared by mixing with 60/70 penetration grade unmodified bitumen. Marshall samples were prepared using the modified and unmodified binders and the effect of SBS and EVA on the mechanical properties of the hot mix asphalt has been determined in terms of stability, flow, indirect tensile strength, and rutting resistance. Test results indicated that the polymer modification improved the conventional properties such as penetration, softening point, and temperature susceptibility. It was also conducted that the stability values related to SBS modified specimens increased with an increase in SBS content compared to the control specimens. While, the stability values for EVA modified specimens are smaller than the stability values of the control specimens. Finally, it was observed that the rutting resistance of the modified mixtures for both of polymer modified binders were higher than the control mixtures.

Book Synopsis Understanding the Performance of Modified Asphalt Binders in Mixtures by : Kevin D. Stuart
Download or read book Understanding the Performance of Modified Asphalt Binders in Mixtures written by Kevin D. Stuart and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The overall objective of this study was to determine if the Superpave high-temperature rheological properties of polymer-modified asphalt binders correlate to asphalt mixture rutting resistance. An emphasis was placed on evaluating polymer-modified asphalt binders with identical (or close) high-temperature performance grades (PG's), but varied polymer chemistries. Eleven asphalt binders were obtained for this study: two unmodified asphalt binders, an air-blown asphalt binder, and eight polymer-modified asphalt binders. High-temperature asphalt binder properties were measured by a dynamic shear rheometer (DSR). Mixture rutting resistance was measured by repeated shear at constant height (RSCH), and the French Pavement Rutting Tester (French PRT). The first objective was to verify the findings of a previous study using a different aggregate. In the previous study, it was found that the Superpave high-temperature asphalt binder properties correlated to mixture rutting resistance with few outliers, and a change in high-temperature PG from 70 to 76 increased rutting resistance. However, the correlation between RSCH and asphalt binder G*/sind (delta) depended on DSR frequency. The data suggested that a low DSR frequency, such as 0.1 rad/s, might provide a better grading system than the standard DSR frequency of 10.0 rad/s. This would require a change in the current asphalt binder specification. A diabase aggregate was used in a previous study. The data using a second aggregate, a limestone aggregate, in combination with four of the asphalt binders, agreed with the findings from the diabase mixtures. The second objective was to retest the diabase mixtures at 70 degrees Celsius using RSCH. The test temperatures used in the previous study were 50 degrees Celsius for RSCH and 70 degrees Celsius for the French PRT. The polymer-modified asphalt binders had continuous high-temperature PG's ranging from 71 to 77. Therefore, it was recommended that the test temperature for RSCH be increased to 70 degrees Celsius. Again, the correlation between RSCH and G*/sind was dependent on DSR frequency. The data suggested that a low DSR frequency, such as 0.1 rad/s, might provide a better grading system. However, it is not known whether this finding applies to pavements, or is related to the accelerated nature of the RSCH test. Furthermore, G*/sind (delta) at 0.1 rad/s did not clearly provide a better correlation to RSCH than the high-temperature PG's of the asphalt binders. The degree of correlation between the French PRT and G*/sind at 70 degrees Celsius did not depend on DSR frequency, and there was only one outlier. A correlation between the French PRT and high-temperature PG provided no obvious outliers. No changes to the specification are recommended based on the French PRT results.

Download or read book Rheological and Rutting Characterization of Asphalt Mixes with Modified Binders written by S. Anjan kumar and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper presents the results of investigations on the rheological properties of modified asphalt binders and their influence on the performance of asphalt mixes. Asphalt mixes with modified binders such as styrene butadiene styrene polymer, crumb rubber, natural rubber, and waste plastics were evaluated for their rheological properties and compared to the properties of asphalt mixes with unmodified VG30 (viscosity grade) asphalt binder. The dynamic modulus values and rutting characteristics of the asphalt mixes were studied with due consideration to different levels of aging and temperature variations. Studies on the rheological properties showed that the energy dissipated by unmodified asphalt (VG30) binder is higher than that of modified asphalt binders. Long-term aged natural rubber and waste plastic modified asphalt binders showed significant increase in the properties compared to unmodified asphalt binder (VG30). Reduced temperature susceptibility of polymer modified asphalt binder showed that only polymer modification can enhance both high temperature rutting resistance and low temperature thermal cracking resistance of asphalt mixes. The transient nature of polymer modified asphalt mix from viscoelastic solid-like to viscoelastic fluid-like condition is significantly shifted to higher temperature compared to that of the mix with unmodified asphalt binder. Aging and rutting indices showed that rubber modified asphalt mixes are highly susceptible to aging. Statistical analysis of test results showed that the process of modification of asphalt binder, aging, and temperature during the test influence the rheological and rutting characteristics of asphalt mixes significantly. Correlation between the asphalt binder properties and its influence on the rutting resistance are found to be statistically significant. The analysis using least significant difference showed that polymer modified asphalt binder significantly improves the aging and rutting resistance of asphalt mixes compared to unmodified asphalt binder.

Book Synopsis SBS Polymer Modified Asphalt Binder and Its Implications on Overlay Design by : PC. Hopman
Download or read book SBS Polymer Modified Asphalt Binder and Its Implications on Overlay Design written by PC. Hopman and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Substantially improved overlay mixes, required by the modern road industry should be highly resistent to reflection cracking. The mix must contribute significantly to the stiffness of the pavement, even when it is applied in relatively thin layers. The binder should possess a high softening temperature to reduce the sensitivity for rutting and corrugation, and it should have a reasonable penetration value to minimize the chances of cracking. In this paper attention is paid to the manner SBS polymer modified asphalt binders cope with this set of requirements. The basic principles of this modification are outlined and emphasis is laid on the rheological and mechanical properties: viscosity and penetration test results are presented. Burgers' model for viscoelastic materials is used in an attempt to describe the visco elasticy. Results of indirect tensile tests are reported, including the tensile strengths and the elastic moduli. Repeated loading tests have been done on polymer modified and plain asphaltic concrete mixes. The results are mutually compared concerning fatigue behaviour, elastic moduli and crack propagation characteristics. The paper describes various trial sections, with special attention to comparative tests carried out in an Australian accelerated loading facility.

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.

This book was released on 2009 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Data evaluation of the test results indicated the increase of nominal maximum size aggregate amount by 5% to 15% to the standard coarse mix designs had negligible effect on HMA fracture mechanics properties. The SBS polymer-modified asphalt binder improved the fracture mechanics behavior of asphalt mixtures comprehensively. The limestone materials hold advantages over granite materials in improving the performance of thermal cracking at low service temperatures and the rutting resistance at high service temperatures. The master curve construction and linear regression analysis indicated that the total resilient modulus increased with an increase in dynamic modulus at a specific loading frequency. The resilient modulus values were comparable with the dynamic modulus values at the loading frequency of 4 Hz. A correlation relationship was developed for predicting the dynamic modulus from existing resilient modulus values of the asphalt concrete mixture in implementing the mechanistic-empirical pavement design.
