Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) is the most commonly used in Malaysia for highways, interstates and roads due to its flexibility, economical, strong and provide safe riding quality for road users. Over the years, the increase of damage on pavement roads in Malaysia has become a severe issue although the road did not achieve its design life. Hence, to reduce damage and defect, an improvised road pavement structures is needed. Various studies have been conducted to identify the new materials that can be used as a replacement in hot mix asphalt. In this research, the purpose is to evaluate the performance of eggshell as coarse aggregate replacement in hot mix asphalt. The gradation for aggregate used in this mixture is AC14. The weight for total mixing of the aggregates used is 1200g while the grade for bitumen is 60/70. The samples were mixed with eggshell in the various percentages of 0%, 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% by total weight of aggregate size 5mm. The laboratory tests carried out to determine the properties of aggregates included, aggregate impact value and aggregate crushing value. Besides, penetration and softening point were also performed to determine the properties of bitumen. Several types of test were conducted towards the samples, which are Marshall Test, Indirect Tensile Strength and Cantabro Test. The results exhibit that the conventional asphalt mixture is more effective than modified asphalt mixture. The replacement of eggshell as coarse aggregate was not enough improvement to the performance of asphalt pavement as the performance of conventional mixture is more stable than modified mixture.

Fiber reinforcement as an available attempt has been proved to be effective in improving the toughness of asphalt concrete and is becoming a new method for highway maintenance. When fiber modified asphalt mixture is used as the surface course of a reconstructive pavement, the interface bonding property between top and lower layers seems to become a crucial factor in the road performance of the long lasting pavement. The primary objective of the research is to study the influence of fiber inclusions on the interfacial shear property of the pavement. With the purpose of discussing the shear strength of the interface between Bonifiber modified asphalt mixture top layer and the normal asphalt mixture layer，the laboratory shear test was developed on MTS-810. Four kinds of double-layered cylindrical specimens were made to simulate the different pavement structures. Test results show that the overlaying with Bonifiber modified asphalt mixture improves not only the general road performance but also the interface property. It is concluded that, the interface property of pavement with fiber reinforced top layer behaves much better than that with normal asphalt concrete one.

The use of cup lump rubber as an additive in asphalt binder has recently become the main interest of the paving industry. The innovation helps to increase the natural rubber consumption and stabilize the rubber price. This study evaluates the mechanical performance of cup lump rubber modified asphalt (CMA) mixture in terms of resilient modulus, dynamic creep and indirect tensile strength under aging conditions. The CMA mixture was prepared using dense-graded Marshall-designed mix and the observed behavior was compared with that of conventional mixture. From the results, both mixtures passed the volumetric properties as accordance to Malaysian Public Work Department (PWD) specification. The addition of cup lump rubber provides better resistance against permanent deformation through the enhanced properties of resilient modulus and dynamic creep. Furthermore, the resilient modulus of CMA mixture performed better under aging conditions.

Sifat volumetrik campuran pada laston merupakan salah satu faktor yang menentukan durabilitas (keawetan) lapis perkerasan jalan. Untuk meningkatkan keawetan lapis perkerasan jalan dan mengurangi dampak negatif terhadap lingkungan dapat dilakukan antara lain melalui modifikasi aspal dengan getah pinus dan limbah styrofoam. Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji sifat volumetrik campuran laston menggunakan aspal modifikasi getah pinus dan limbah styrofoam tersebut. Sifat volumetrik campuran laston yang dikaji adalah rongga dalam campuran, rongga di antara mineral agregat, rongga terselimuti aspal, density dan bulk specific gravity. Pada penelitian ini digunakan agregat bergradasi rapat yang dicampur dengan aspal modifikasi pada suhu 155 oC dan dipadatkan 75 kali pada kedua sisinya. Pada seluruh benda uji, prosentase limbah styrofoam yang digunakan adalah 6% sedangkan getah pinus sebesar 0%, 1%, 2% dan 3% terhadap berat aspal modifikasi.  Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa campuran laston yang menggunakan aspal modifikasi getah pinus menghasilkan nilai VFB, density dan bulk specific gravity lebih besar serta nilai VIM dan VMA lebih kecil dibandingkan dengan campuran yang menggunakan aspal modifikasi limbah styrofoam. Dengan nilai VIM dan VMA lebih kecil, campuran yang menggunakan aspal modifikasi getah pinus menghasilkan daya ikat lebih kuat sehingga memiliki durabilitas lebih tinggi. Ditinjau dari persyaratan laston sebagai lapis aus pada perkerasan jalan, penggunaan getah pinus dan limbah styrofoam sebagai modifier aspal memenuhi persyaratan volumetrik campuran. Volumetric properties of asphalt concrete is important factor to determine the durability of road pavement. Improvement the durability of road pavement and reducing negative impact of the environment can be done by using modified asphalt. This article aims to know the volumetric properties of  hot mix asphalt using pine resin and waste styrofoam as asphalt modifier. The volumetric properties include voids in mix, voids in the mineral aggregate, voids filled with bitumen, density and bulk specific gravity.  In this study, a continuously graded aggregate was used and mixed with modified asphalt at 155 oC and compacted with 75 blows on both sides. The percentage of waste styrofoam was 6% whereas the percentages of pine resin where  0%, 1%, 2% and 3% by weight of modified asphalt. From the analysis, it can be concluded that asphalt concrete containing pine resin as  modifier strengthen the binding between asphalt and agregate, due to increasing value of voids filled with bitumen (VFB), density and bulk specific gravity. Durability of asphalt concrete using pine resin as modifier was higher than that of asphalt concrete using waste styrofoam because of decreasing value of voids in mix (VIM) and voids in the mineral aggregate (VMA). Based on the specification of  asphalt concrete wearing course, the use of pine resin and waste styrofoam as asphalt modifier has fulfilled volumetric properties requirements.

Abstract The benefits of WMA technologies include reduced fuel usage and emissions in support of sustainable development, improved field compaction, which can facilitate longer haul distances and cool weather pavement, and better working conditions. Since this is a relatively new technology, it is necessary to determine the behavior and the performances of this type of asphalt mixture depending on additive percent. These technologies tend to reduce the viscosity of the asphalt and provide for the complete coating of aggregates at lower temperatures. WMA is produced at temperatures 20 to 30°C lower than typical hot-mix asphalt (HMA). The paper presents the results obtained in the Road Laboratory of Technical University of Civil Engineering Bucharest on an asphalt mixture with fibers (MASF16) prepared according to the “warm mix” technology with chemical additive. Different percent of additive are used in laboratory to draw up the “master curves” of asphalt mixture obtained by 4PB-PR stiffness modulus results.

Using the waste crumb rubber modified asphalt to pave the road surface could reduce cost and save energy. However，in order to obtain adequate workability, the mixing temperature and compaction temperature of rubberized asphalt binder and its mixture is much higher than those of conventional asphalt mixtures. Warm Mix Asphalt (WMA) is the name given to certain technologies that reduce the production and placement temperatures of asphalt mixes. One of the main benefits advertised is the increased workability at conventional and lower compaction temperatures with the WMA addition. This paper evaluates whether there are any synergy effects of using warm mix technologies and Asphalt Rubber(AR) hot mixes. This paper summarizes a lab research to evaluate the workability of Asphalt Rubber hot mixes containing warm mix technologies. Both asphalt binder and asphalt mixture were evaluated and compared. The research suggests that combining WMA technology with Asphalt Rubber mixtures is a win-win.

To date, non-destruction testing (NDT) method is the most popular method to assess the condition of road pavement. Among all evaluation procedures of the NDT method, load-deflection backcalculation analysis is one that is developed widely to understand the structural behavior of road pavement. On one side, the use of this analysis is greatly beneficial for presenting the layer characteristic accurately. However, the analysis requires specialist expertise. To overcome this, deflection bowl parameter application could become one alternative. The parameters are very easy to use; however, the intention of the parameters so far is only as an indication of the condition of the structural layer of the road pavement. Therefore, the parameters have to be used with careful consideration. In this study, the parameters were evaluated to determine the optimal usage of the parameters against different structures of road pavements. The results showed that a simplification of the number of parameters and a reformulation of the parameters were required by taking into account the ease of use in practice, the accuracy of subgrade modulus determination and the possibility to evaluate pavement structures with a layer number less than four.

Reflective cracking is a common issue with respect to rehabilitated asphalt pavements, especially when the rehabilitation is done by applying a hot-mix asphalt overlay on the existing damaged pavement. Several approaches can be adopted to delay reflective cracking. They include an increase of the overlay thickness and the use of a stress relief asphalt mixture (SRAM), which is a fine-graded, flexible, and thin asphalt interlayer. Because the efficiency of a SRAM is highly related to the properties of the asphalt binder used in the mixture, it is of interest to use a highly modified asphalt (HiMA) binder. This paper describes a field test comprising three sections at BR-116 (a heavily trafficked highway in Brazil). One of the rehabilitation strategies used for a cracked asphalt pavement was a 2.5-cm SRAM (produced with a HiMA binder) and 5-cm styrene–butadiene–styrene (SBS) hot-mix asphalt (HMA). The other two strategies were to apply SBS HMA overlays of different thicknesses (7.5 cm and 10.5 cm). The aim was to evaluate and compare the capability of these solutions to control reflective cracking. Rheological properties and multiple stress creep and recovery tests were performed on the asphalt binders, and the semicircular bending test was performed on the asphalt mixtures. The surface conditions were monitored, and the results for each section were compared. After a 29-month period, the section that received the interlayer had the lowest cracked area and showed better resistance than the overlays did to reflective cracking and better maintenance of the original thickness of the pavement.
