Six test sections were constructed on US-53 in Trempealeau County by using different performance-graded asphalt binders to validate the Superpave pavement temperature algorithm and the binder specification limits. Field instrumentation was installed in two of the test sections to monitor the thermal behavior of the pavement as affected by weather. The instrumentation was used specifically to monitor the temperature of the test sections as a function of time and depth from the pavement surface. A meteorological station was assembled at the test site to monitor weather conditions, including air temperature. Details of the instrumentation systems used and analysis of the data collected during the first 22 months of the project are presented. The analysis was focused on development of a statistical model for estimation of low and high pavement temperatures from meteorological data. The model was compared to the Superpave recommended model and to the more recent model recommended by the Long-Term Pavement Performance (LTPP) program. The temperature data analysis indicates a strong agreement between the new model and the LTPP model for the estimation of low pavement design temperature. However, the analysis indicates that the LTPP and Superpave models underestimate the high pavement design temperature at air temperatures higher than 30°C. The temperature data analyses also indicate that there are significant differences between the standard deviation of air temperatures and the standard deviation of the pavement temperatures. These differences raise some questions about the accuracy of the reliability estimates used in the current Superpave recommendations.

Based on the development of thermal reflective coating materials at home and abroad, modified emulsified asphalt was selected as the substrate material and nano TiO2 was selected as the filler. Different filler dosage was selected, the optimal ratio of thermal reflective coating was obtained by analyzing the pavement temperature data measured in the field experiment. Finally, the construction technology of pavement thermal reflection coating material is described in detail.

Asphalt pavement temperatures greatly influence on the bearing capacity and performance, especially in high-temperature season. The variation rules of pavement temperatures under the high-temperature range affect the design and maintenance management of the asphalt pavement, as well as the accurate prediction for pavement temperatures. However, asphalt pavement temperature is greatly affected by various strongly correlated environmental factors and cannot be measured directly or predicted effectively. In this project, temperature sensors were embedded in the pavement of in-service road to collect temperature data by continuous record measurement, and regression model was conducted by the partial least squares method through comprehensive analysis on the pavement temperature data and synchronously environmental data from local weather station measured in July 2013, July 2014, and July 2015. The quantitative relationships in high-temperature season between environmental factors and pavement temperature were determined, and a model was established to predict the temperature of asphalt pavement based on environmental data. The model was verified by the recorded data from July 1, 2016, to July 31, 2016, and the results indicated that the pavement temperature can be predicted accurately and reliably by the proposed model.

This study presents a kind of new model correlates air and pavement temperatures in bituminous pavement. Based on abundant measured temperature data in Henan Province, China, distribution laws in asphalt conctete pavement temperature is studied detailed and the dependency between air and pavement temperature is discussed by the method of regression analysis and the prediction models of asphalt pavement temperature are established. Comparisons between measured and predicted asphalt pavement temperatures indicate that the models are equipped with comprehensive applicability and excellent accuracy.
