The development and implementation of road surfaces resistant to temperature extremes and high technogenic loads is one of the important tasks for road workers. These surfaces must be economically viable for production. Since the known methods for improving the physicomechanical properties of a binder for asphalt concrete involve the introduction of expensive foreign polymers. Rubber crumb, being a waste of production, allows to solve the problem with the disposal of used tires, and the cost of such a modifier for road bitumen is lower than foreign polymers. The article describes an example of using a rubber crumb to modify the road binder in asphalt concrete. The compositions of bitumen-rubber suspensions, the determination of the physicomechanical properties of a modified binder are described. The test results of asphalt concrete with a bitumen-rubber binder are given. A comparative analysis of asphalt concrete on bitumen oil road viscous and asphalt concrete on a modified binder is carried out. The purpose of this work is to develop a theoretical justification and practical application of a bituminous-rubber binder obtained by combining oil road bitumen with rubber crumb. Material processing takes place in the microwave field. The resulting bitumen-rubber composite surpasses viscous petroleum bitumen in physical and mechanical properties and is suitable for use as a binder for the production of high-quality asphalt concrete.

Rutting is an important problem in Russia today. One of the ways to improve the properties of asphalt concrete mixtures and reduce wear on road surfaces is to modify the binder with polymer additives. The aim of the work was to test the selected compositions of MMAC mixtures containing bitumen modified with the addition of sevilene and rubber for rutting resistance, which make it possible to predict the formation of plastic rut. It was revealed that when using sevilen in its composition, with an increase in the concentration of vinyl acetate, the depth of the track increases in comparison with the industrial polymer-bitumen binder. It is shown that with the introduction of a complex additive based on sevilen and rubber into the binder composition, its rutting decreases and the service life of the road surface increases, which indicates a high elasticity of the complex-modified binder. In this work, the calculation of the service life of the coating before the formation of a critical rut requiring repair of the coating is carried out. It was found that in terms of the slope of the rutting curve and the proportional depth of the rut, the compositions with sevilene and rubber are not inferior to traditional industrial PBB.

With open-pit mining method in Kuzbass is widely used automobile transport, transportation costs up to 70% of the cost of coal production. It is not economically feasible to use asphalt concrete and cement concrete as a material of temporary technological roads, and the use of crushed coal-bearing rocks will make it possible to increase the efficiency of coal mining by open method. Currently, the question of the application of the coal-bearing rocks for building temporary technological roads is poorly studied. The paper proposes a method of determining the thickness of road pavements of technological roads, which can be applied directly by the mining company, their analysis has been carried out, the dependence from the strength factor and the category of blockiness of foundation rocks has been determined.

This article discusses the problems that arise in the operation of road structures. One of the most important is rutting. Indicators of resistance to rutting depend on the method of design of non-rigid pavement and operational parameters, which allows to obtain the applied method of volumetric design of asphalt mix «Superpave» (SP-19), which in our country was called «SPAS». The authors, together with the staff of the laboratory of asphalt Concrete plant – 1, monitored asphalt concrete mixtures designed according to the «Superpave» system on the asphalt mixing plant. Then tests were carried out according to the method of PNST 181-2016 on the susceptibility of asphalt concrete materials to shear deformations arising under the action of repeated passes of the loaded wheel at ambient temperature. The result of the study of rutting showed that the mixture SP-19 have predominantly traditional. More detailed research results are presented in this article. Based on the data obtained from the results, conclusions were formulated: the Studies show that the method of «Superpeyv» is updated to the requirements of technical supervision at the objects of the road complex of the Russian Federation. In conclusion, the authors have formulated conclusions on the research: a comparison of physical and mechanical performance of asphalt concrete mix SP-19 on PNST 114 and fine-grained asphalt concrete mix type A brand I shows that the shear stability in terms of the average depth of the track is higher for the brand SP-19 by 38 %; set the required mixing temperature and compaction of asphalt concrete mixture on the system «Superpeyv»; the release of a pilot batch of asphalt concrete mix of SP-19 brand at the production site of JSC «ABZ-1» showed that the recipe selected in the laboratory is reproduced in the ABZ; cores selected within the framework of technical supervision from the experimental coating and tested in the laboratory showed corresponding to the requirements of ODM 218.4.038-2017; assessment of economic efficiency at the cost of asphalt concrete mix of SP-19 brand showed a decrease of 2.2 % relative to the cost of fine-grained asphalt concrete mix; the increase in the service life of the road surface h 30–50 % by reducing rutting increases its turnaround time. At the same time, economic efficiency can reach 50 % per m2.

To solve the problem of autonomously navigating multiple destinations, which is one of the tasks in the Tsukuba Challenge 2019, this paper proposes a method for automatically generating the optimal travel route based on costs associated with routes. In the proposed method, the route information is generated by playing back the acquired driving data to perform self-localization, and the self-localization log is stored. In addition, the image group of road surfaces is acquired from the driving data. The costs of routes are generated based on texture analysis of the road surface image group and analysis of the self-localization log. The cost-added route information is generated by combining the costs calculated by the two methods, and by assigning the combined costs to the route. The minimum-cost multidestination route is generated by conducting a route search using cost-added route information. Then, we evaluated the proposed method by comparing it with the method of generating the route using only the distance cost. The results confirmed that the proposed method generates travel routes that account for safety when the autonomous wheelchair is being driven.

This article reflects the importance of the road network for the social development of society and the development of the economy of the country as a whole. On the basis of literary sources provides complex analysis of roads in Ukraine, their current functional state and tendencies of development. It is established that the road industry is in a rather difficult situation due to unsatisfactory transport and operational conditions of the vast majority of Ukrainian roads. Construction of new roads is extremely rare because of lack of financial resources. Road works are usually carried out to preserve the network of already existing roads and to ensure their necessary transport and operational status. According to the results of the analysis, one of the main reasons for the premature destruction of newly constructed or repaired non-rigid pavements is the low strength of interlayer adhesion in the contact area of the newly covered material with the layer below. The effect of clutch durability between asphalt layers on the road strength has been studied in detail. A number of factors that affect the quality of clutch durability between layers are analyzed. It is established that in order to ensure the strength of grafting between asphalt concrete layers of road clothing, it is necessary to strictly observe the technological regimes of their laying, above all temperature; to take into account the physical and mechanical properties of materials at the construction stage and the influence of climatic and mechanical factors, or most often their complex effect on the operation of the highway.

The possibility of using waste porcelain stoneware - a high-strength non-porous, dense material as a finely crushed mineral part of asphalt concrete with 0-5 mm fraction has been established. The adhesive additive Bitaden content was revealed, that intensifies porcelain stoneware interaction with bitumen due to the additional hydrogen bonds formation, the particles’ contact plane activation with the action of van der Waals forces. The conditions for obtaining asphalt concrete mixtures of type B, grade 1 and G, grade 2 of the optimal grain composition with a reduced content of BND 60/90 bitumen have been developed. Physical and mechanical properties are characterized by an increase in the water resistance of asphalt concrete samples based on porcelain stoneware, compressive strength and shear resistance.

Statement of the problem. It is essential to consider the technology of repair of road surfaces of non-rigid type using cold asphalt-concrete mixtures on bitumen grades BND, SG and MG. It is important to develop a mathematical model of the road structure that enables modeling the temperature distribution over the layer thickness, depending on the design parameters of the road considering the thermal and physical properties of materials and the temperature conditions of the road operation. It is also necessary to specify the effect of the mixture temperature on the tensile strength of the cold mixture of factory production. Potholes of the coating must be repaired at low air temperatures of different repair technologies in production conditions. Results. Based on the results of modeling the temperature distribution in the coating layer, it is proven that the use of cold asphalt-concrete mixtures ensures high quality of repair work at air temperatures above +30 ° C. The dependence of the heating temperature of the base on the air temperature and the layer thickness is obtained, which provides the temperature conditions of the cold mixture during compaction. It is established that the ultimate strength depends on temperature. The maximum value of the strength limit of cold asphalt concrete of factory production is provided at the compaction temperature of the mixture at +50-55⁰C. The repair of potholes of the road surface carried out in production conditions at low air temperatures proved the ability to perform repair work with high quality of work. Conclusions. It is proven that it is effective to heat the base of the pothole during repair on non-rigid road surfaces at low air temperatures before laying a cold asphalt-concrete mixture. The influence of the base temperature on its distribution over the layer thickness depending on the air temperature and the layer thickness during repair work is established. The obtained dependence of the strength limit of cold asphalt concrete of factory production on temperature allows us to determine the parameters of compacting machines that ensure high quality of repair work.

Abstract Increasing the volume of road construction is one of the priority areas of infrastructure development in any country. When building roads, it is preferable to use local materials to reduce the cost of their transportation, therefore, it is advisable to build the roadbed on local soils. It is worth noting that clay water-saturated soils are the most common, which complicates the construction of the road due to some features of this type of soil. The object of the study is a water-saturated clay with the following characteristics: natural humidity from 25.3 % to 28.1% by weight, optimal humidity from 11.8 % to 16.7% by weight, the number of plasticity from 0.118 to 0.153. Clay soils have a number of features: waterlogged soils are difficult to compact and develop, it is quite problematic to dry them, and thixotropy is also characteristic of clay soils. In this regard, it is most advisable to use the method of complex mineral binders to optimize their physical and mechanical properties. In the course of laboratory studies, compositions of soil compositions with the addition of lime waste and superplasticizer P-17 were developed. The dependence of the strength on the consumption of mineral binders and surfactants is established: the maximum compressive strength of the soil being fixed is achieved at a lime content of 25 wt.% and at a P-17 content in the range of 0.10-0.5 wt.%.

The paper considers a possibility to use sand asphalt concrete as a material for protection of asphalt concrete and cement concrete road pavements against affection of external destructive factors. Advantages and disadvantages of sand asphalt concrete road pavements have been determined in the paper. The paper provides recommendations on improvement of sand asphalt concrete properties and contains an analysis of possible variants for usage of complex-modified sand asphalt concrete in the road construction. It has been noted that according to its potentially possible physical and mechanical properties activated quartz sand being micro-reinforced by dispersive industrial wastes is considered as an efficient component for creation of constructive layers in road asphalt concrete pavements. The paper reveals only specific aspects of the efficient application of quartz sand in road asphalt concrete. The subject of the paper loоks rather interesting for regions where there are no rock deposits for obtaining broken-stone ballast but there is rather significant spreading of local quarts sand. Its successful application is connected with the necessity to develop special equipment for physical and chemical activation of sand grain surface that permits strongly to increase an adhesive strength in the area of phase separation within the “bitumen–SiO2” system. The considered problem is a topical one and its solution will make it possible to local sand in a maximum way and partially to exclude application of broken stone in road construction.
