Through the freeze-thaw splitting test, rutting test, low temperature bending test, comprehensive analysis the affect of coarse and fine ratio on ATB asphalt mixture performance. The results showed that: the ratio of change have a significant effect on water stability, high temperature stability, low temperature stability. Reasonable coarse and fine ratio have a higher degree of stability; Smaller coarse and fine ratio can effectively improve the asphalt mixture water stable performance, with coarse and fine ratio increased, freeze-thaw splitting strength ratio decreases; Larger coarse and fine ratio have an adverse effect on the high temperature stability, dynamic stability after the first increase and then decrease with increasing coarse and fine ratio; Smaller coarse and fine ratio can significantly improve the low temperature stability.

A series of laboratory tests on warm-mix AC-13 dense gradation asphalt mixture with 3% EC120 were carried out by the method of identical volume. A comparative analysis of common hot asphalt mixture was performed. The results indicate that the reduction of compaction temperature of warm-mix modified bitumen mixture is 27.1°C with addition of 3% EC120. The road performances of warm-mix asphalt mixture determined by the method of identical volume satisfied the specification. Compared to the common hot asphalt mixture, the warm-mix modified asphalt mixture has excellent high temperature stability, slightly low moisture susceptibility and better low-temperature crack resistance.

Based on the feasibility analysis of the chloride’s released capability, a certain proportion of the chloride was added into the ordinary asphalt mixture to form a new chloride-stored asphalt mixture. The mixing proportion was determined and its pavement and anti-icing performance were analyzed. The research indicates that: the stored chloride has good releasability. The new asphalt mixture not only has better high temperature stability and low temperature anti-bending capability than the ordinary one, but could also remove the road ice effectively.

In order to improve the road performance of drainage SBS modified asphalt mixture, basalt fiber was added to prepare drainage styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS) modified asphalt mixture. The viscosity-toughness, toughness, and 60°C dynamic viscosity of SBS modified asphalt were tested. The modification effect was evaluated from the perspective of high and low temperature rheological properties by dynamic shear rheometer (DSR) and bending beam rheometer (BBR) tests. The high temperature stability, water stability, low temperature crack resistance, and drainage of basalt fiber SBS drainage asphalt mixture were evaluated and compared with nonfiber SBS drainage asphalt mixture and TPS drainage asphalt mixture. The morphology characteristics of asphalt mixture and the distribution of basalt fiber in the mixture were analyzed from a micro perspective. The results showed the following: the overall performance of basalt fiber is better than that of lignin fiber. SBS modifier content in 7% can meet the requirements of drainage asphalt pavement on asphalt binder. The optimum asphalt content of SBS modified asphalt mixture with basalt fiber content of 0, 0.15, 0.25, and 0.35% is 4.9, 5.05, 5.15, and 5.2%. The fiber is irregularly distributed in the mixture to form a three-dimensional network structure, which has a series skeleton function. It plays a tensile role in the initial cracking of asphalt mixture and prevents further expansion of cracks.

This paper mainly used the Superpave and the Marshall design methods to design the mix ratio of the hot mix plant recycled asphalt mixture. The road performance of AC-20, SUP-20 with 30% RAP content and AC-20 with 50% RAP content was studied to evaluate the water stability and high temperature stability and low temperature crack resistance of the recycled asphalt mixture. Research shows that the road performance of AC-20 mixed with 50% RAP content meets the technical requirements of the same type of asphalt mixture. It is recommended to use the Marshall design method for hot mix plant recycled asphalt mixture design.

This article presents a study to evaluate the performance of the ecofriendly calcium sulfate whisker fiber- (CSWF-) reinforced asphalt mixture as a sustainable pavement material. Asphalt mixtures containing 0.2 wt.%, 0.4 wt.%, 0.6 wt.%, and 0.8 wt.% of the CSWF were designed by the Marshall method. Asphalt mixtures without fiber were also prepared as control samples. The Marshall test, wheel-tracking test, low-temperature bending test, water sensitivity test, and fatigue test were conducted to evaluate the performance of the CSWF asphalt mixture. And the mechanism of fiber reinforcement was discussed. The results showed that the CSWF could improve the high-temperature stability and low-temperature crack resistance of the asphalt mixture. Water stability of asphalt mixtures in the presence of the CSWF was also improved. When the CSWF content was 0.4 wt.% of the total mixture, the performance of the asphalt mixture is the best. Compared with the conventional asphalt mixture, the CSWF asphalt mixture not only utilized power plant waste effectively to preserve ecosystems but also improved the performance of the pavement, which is suggested to be used in sustainable pavement construction and rehabilitation.

Mixing the composite phase change material (CPCM) to asphalt mixture is a new way to solve the worldwide problem of the low-temperature cracking and high temperature rutting of the asphalt pavement. Asphalt mixture with CPCM can remain in the ideal working temperature range for a relatively long time. This paper analyzes the influence of the contents of CPCM on its road performance by laboratory testing. The study shows that mixing CPCM to asphalt mixture had little effect to the optimal asphalt content. For CPCM prepared by polymer shape-stabilized method, the high-temperature stability and the water stability of asphalt mixture increases firstly and then decreases the low-temperature anti-cracking stability decreases firstly and then increases with the increasing of CPCM. For CPCM prepared by carrier-adsorbed packaging process, the high-temperature stability decreases, low-temperature anti-cracking stability decreases firstly and then increases, the water stability increases firstly and then decreases with increasing of CPCM. The results indicate that CPCM has significant influences on its road performance. The optimal content of CPCM is around 0.3%.

The reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) materials with aged SBS bitumen were limited to applied in unmodified asphalt mixture for low level pavement structure by conventional recycling technology. To overcome this, a new recycling procedure was developed to recover the aged SBS RAP as modified asphalt mixture by warm mixing technology. The Marshall method was applied to design Warm Recycled SBS modified Asphalt Mixture (WRMA) with different RAP content (0, 20%, 30%, 40% and 50%). the performance properties of WRMA and hot recycled SBS modified asphalt mixture (HRMA), such as the high temperature stability, water stability and low temperature performance, were evaluated by the rutting test, low-temperature creep test, beam bending test and water immersion Marshall test, respectively. From the testing results, the properties of WRMA was more than HRMA significantly, and the warm recycling technology could effectively increase the RAP content applied in recycled pavement materials.

In the engineering practice dry rubber modified asphalt mixture is easy to strip due to the poor adhesion between the rubber particles and asphalt. This paper describes a case study where the rubber-modified asphalt mixture mixed with hydrated lime, cement to improve the adhesion between the asphalt and rubber particles, and improve the road performance of the mixture. Then the additive dosage was determined through laboratory experiment and the pavement performance was verified. The result showed that: the water stability and high temperature stability could be evidently improved with the asphalt mixture added with these anti-stripping agents. And asphalt mixture with 1.5% hydrated lime had the best anti-stripping performance.
