The types and contents of styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS) modifier are two important factors of SBS modified asphalt mixtures. Nowadays, SBS are extensively utilized to modified asphalt in order to improve the performance of the flexible pavement. The objective of this study is to determine a best selection of types and contents of SBS modifier, which can improve high-temperature stability; low-temperature anti-cracking performance and moisture susceptibility of SBS modified asphalt mixture. The mixtures with four types of SBS (Linear A, Linear B, Star A, Star B) and the different contents of each type SBS including Linear SBS of 0%, 3%, 4%, 4.5% and Star SBS of 0%, 3%, 3.5%, 4%, were evaluated for the pavement performance of them under laboratory conditions. Wheel tracking test, beam bending test and freeze-thaw tensile strength test were chosen and carried out to determine high-temperature stability, low-temperature anti-cracking performance and the moisture susceptibility respectively. The laboratory testing results indicate that Star SBS show the more effective effects than Linear SBS to improve the high-temperature stability, low-temperature anti-cracking performance and moisture susceptibility of SBS modified asphalt mixture, and the optimum content of SBS can also play a key role the improvement of the pavement performance.

According to high temperature weak stability of common asphalt mixture, rutting tests of diatomite modified asphalt mixture, modified lake asphalt mixture, modified rock asphalt mixture and common asphalt mixture are carried out. Changes of dynamic stability for common asphalt mixture compared with modified asphalt mixtures are comparatively analysed. The results show that compared with common asphalt mixture, rutting resistances of diatomite modified asphalt mixture, modified lake asphalt mixture and modified rock asphalt mixture are greatly improved. It is proposed that those kinds of modified asphalt mixture are adopted in asphalt pavement of large longitudinal slope section.

This paper made a research into each performance index of basalt fibre strengthen SBS modified asphalt mixture by using two kinds of gradation, which are AC-20C of mid-surface and AC-13C of upper layer. And compared and analyzed with the same gradation of carbon fiber strengthen SBS modified asphalt mixture. The results showed that compared to carbon fiber strengthen SBS modified asphalt mixture Conbasalt , basalt fibre strengthen SBS modified asphalt mixture is equivalent on water stability and fatigue resistance,etc. It is relatively weak on low-temperature crack resistance. But it has decided advantage on high temperature stability.

Colored binder was prepared by mixing aromatic oil with petroleum resin and functional polymers. Then the colored binder combined with pigment, aggregates, and additives resulted in colored asphalt mixture. Futher modification by nano-montmorillonite or coupling agent, higher pavement performance was chieved. The paving technical indexes of the mixture such as physical properties, moisture susceptibility, and high temperature stability were tested. The results demonstrate that the high temperature stability and moisture susceptibility can be satisfied with the requirements of hardscape projects including asphalt driveways, asphalt walkways, asphalt streets, asphalt bike paths, and asphalt walking paths.

In order to discuss the effect of the basalt fiber on reinforcing pavement performance of asphalt mixtures, the optimum dosage of asphalt and fibers were studied by the method of Marshall test and rut test firstly. Then pavement performances of basalt fiber-modified asphalt mixtures were investigated through tests of high temperature stability, water stability and low temperature crack resistance, and compared with that of polyester fiber, xylogen fiber and control mixture. The testing results showed that the pavement performance of fiber-modified asphalt mixture are improved and optimized comparing with control asphalt mixture, and the performance of basalt fiber-modified asphalt mixture with best composition were excelled than those of polyester fiber and xylogen fiber.

Adding sulphur dilution asphalt modifier SEAM to asphalt mixture is not only a modifier of asphalt mixture, but also an additive of asphalt mixture. When the modifier is added into the asphalt mixture, the road performance of the asphalt mixture can be improved. This paper studies SEAM modified asphalt mixture the Marshall property index, temperature stability, Water stability and fatigue feature in the Laboratory. On the based of the result of the experiment and analysis, SEAM can improve the high temperature stability, Water stability and fatigue feature. But the low temperature stability can’t improve.

Road construction consumes great amounts of high-grade natural resources. Using low-grade natural rocks or some solid wastes as substitute materials is a hot topic. Considering this, the feasibility of using low-grade granite aggregate, solid waste-based filler (desulphurization gypsum residues, DGR) and binder (waste tire rubber modified asphalt, RMA) simultaneously in asphalt mixtures has been fully investigated in this research. The commonly used base asphalt and limestone powder (LP) filler were control groups. Material characteristics of raw materials mainly including micro-morphology, functional group, mineral phase, chemical composition and thermal stability were first evaluated in order to recognize them. Four asphalt mixtures (two asphalt binder and two filler) were then designed by standard Superpave method. Finally, a detailed investigation into the pavement performance of asphalt mixtures was carried out. The moisture damage resistance and low-temperature crack resistance were detected by the changing rules of stability, strength and fracture energy, and the high-temperature stability and fatigue performance were determined by wheel tracking test and indirect tensile (IDT) fatigue test, respectively. Results suggested that RMA and DGR both showed positive effects on the low-temperature crack resistance and fatigue property of the granite asphalt mixture. DGR also strengthened moisture stability. The contribution of RMA on high-temperature deformation resistance of the granite asphalt mixture was compelling. It can offset the insufficiency in high-temperature stability made by DGR. A conclusion can be made that asphalt mixture prepared with granite, DGR and RMA possesses satisfactory pavement performances.

In order to deeply reveal the high temperature stability of asphalt mixture, rutting test was implemented to evaluate the high temperature stability of asphalt mixture, and the evaluation index is dynamic stability. The effect of asphalt type, degree of compaction, gradation type and nominal maximum aggregate size on rutting test results was studied respectively. The results showed that: modified asphalt can improve the high temperature stability of asphalt mixture effectively; the anti-rutting performance of asphalt mixture reduces gradually with decrease of the degree of compaction; the anti-rutting performance of SAC-16 is greater than that of AC-16; and the anti-rutting performance of asphalt mixture is improved with increase of the nominal size of aggregate.

In recent years, ultra-thin wearing course asphalt mixture has been widely used in the reconstruction of old road surfaces and the functional layer of new road surfaces due to its good road performance. To improve the rutting resistance of ultra-thin wearing course asphalt mixture, this research presents an Ultra-thin Wearing Course-10 (UTWC-10) asphalt mixture with good high-temperature stability and skid resistance based on the Taylor system standard mesh specifications. The Course Aggregate Void Filling (CAVF) method is used to design the UTWC-10 asphalt mixture, which is compared with two other traditional ultra-thin wearing course asphalt mixtures on the basis of different laboratory performance tests. The high-temperature rutting test data shows that the rutting dynamic stability (DS) index of the UTWC-10 asphalt mixture is much higher than that of traditional wearing course asphalt mixtures, as it has better high-temperature stability. Moreover, anti-sliding performance attenuation tests are conducted by a coarse aggregate polishing machine. The wear test results show that the skid resistance of the UTWC-10 asphalt mixture is promising. The anti-sliding performance attenuation test can effectively reflect the skid resistance attenuation trend of asphalt pavement at the long-term vehicle load. It is verified that the designed UTWC-10 asphalt mixture shows excellent high-temperature rutting resistance and skid resistance, as well as better low temperature crack resistance and water stability than the traditional wearing course asphalt mixtures.
