Slant Shear

Through a comparative study of high-temperature asphalt mixture performance by three methods: the standard rutting test, uniaxial penetration test on cylindrical specimens, and slant shear test, this paper displays that the shear elastic modulus gained by both cylindrical uniaxial penetration test and slant shear test can reflect well the properties of shear deformation of asphalt mixture under high temperature. However, there are certain limitations in these test methods.

The main purpose of recycling is to reuse existing pavement material. First this paper reviews the necessary, feasibility and mechanistic analysis of recycled asphalt mixture, then summarizes the findings of a laboratory study to characterize and design recycled asphalt concrete mixtures using different tests. The laboratory tests carried out on the material were conventional test methods including unconfined compressive strength, cleavage strength, resilient modulus and shrinkage properties tests. The results of the laboratory can be taken as reference in design, engineering and further research．

Nanoindentation has been applied in the field of asphalt mixtures, but, at the nano-scale, changes in the composition of the mixture and material properties can have a significant impact on the results. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate the feasibility of nanoindentation tests on different types of asphalt mixtures with different gradations and the influence of material properties and test methods on nanoindentation results. In this paper, the nanoindentation test results on three kinds of asphalt mixture (AC-13, SMA-13, and OGFC-13) with different aggregate gradations were investigated. The load-displacement curves and moduli obtained from the nanoindentation tests were analyzed. In addition, nanoindentation tests were carried out before and after polishing with different ratios of filler and asphalt (RFA) (0.8–1.6). On this basis, the morphology of asphalt specimens with different RFAs is observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) imaging. The results indicate that using the nanoindentation test to characterize the mechanical behavior of asphalt mixture, the confidence level of the dense-graded mixture is low, and non-dense-graded mixtures are used as much as possible. Moreover, results illustrate that the nanoindentation modulus tends to increase as the RFA increases. and the SEM chart shows that the higher the mineral powder content in the mastic, the more complex the bitumen and mineral powder interaction surface, confirming the influence of mineral powder content on the nanoindentation test results. Furthermore, the effect of polishing is almost insignificant.

AbstractThe quality of a road is affected by its correct design, the appropriate use of materials, the effects of the climate, and the technological discipline. The deformation properties and fatigue of asphalt layers are important for the design and assessment of semi-rigid and flexible pavements. The assessment of deformation properties is performed by means of a dynamic impact test and the fatigue life of a particular asphalt mixture. An evaluation of the fatigue life is based on decreases in resistance or increases in deformations in different binders and mixtures. The test methods for the design and control of pavement construction materials determine the basic conditions valid for flexible matter. The Two-Point Bending Test was used for determining the deformation characteristics and the fatigue of asphalt mixtures at the Department of Construction Management in Zilina.

The Individual

Moisture susceptibility is still one of the primary causes of distress in flexible pavements, reducing the pavements’ durability. A very large number of tests are available to evaluate the susceptibility of a binder aggregate combination. Tests can be conducted on the asphalt mixture, either in a loose or compacted form, or on the individual components of an asphalt pavement. Apart from various mechanisms and models, fundamental concepts have been proposed to calculate the thermodynamic tendency of a binder aggregate combination to adhere and/or debond under wet conditions. The aim of this review is to summarize literature findings and conclusions, regarding these concepts as carried out in the CEDR project FunDBits. The applied test methods, the obtained results, and the validation or predictability of these fundamental approaches are discussed.
