Rutting is one of the major damage modes in asphalt pavement. Many management departments need to conduct a reasonable assessment of rutting and damage cause analysis to roads. We often use on-site observed means for assessment of road surface rutting. We use methods of on-site core and cutting specimens for laboratory analysis. This paper tell this method of determining the reasons for rutting damage by analyzing the porosity, sub-layer uplift factor, size distribution, whetstone ratio and rutting test results.

This study uses a test section of a highway, a study object, to explore the effect of thickness of the gravel base and asphalt layer on the vertical deformation of the road surface. The thickness of the asphalt layer and graded gravel base is changed. The nonlinear description equation of the relationship between the thickness (h1) of the asphalt layer and the vertical deformation (d1) is established: d1=a41−b4h1. The thickness of the asphalt pavement is then determined to reduce vertical deformation. Numerical calculation shows that the maximum vertical deformation of the foundation is within 8 mm, which is less than the 15 mm maximum vertical deformation of the embankment. This level meets the design requirements.

In order to study dynamic response of rough road surface resulting from different speeds and loads under a certain roughness for purpose of effective enhancement pertinence for structural design of an asphalt pavement and extension of its service life, displacement meters, stress meters and strain meters are embedded at different structural layers on the rough road surface to monitor the dynamic responses of AC pavement. The result shows that roughness can dramatically increase response on an asphalt road surface resulting from load and speed.

This paper presented the effect of addition of Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement (RAP) on performance of mixture with (20%, 30%, 40% and 50%) RAP as proportion of asphalt mix. To compare with virgin mixture marshall flow and stability test was used to evaluated durability performance with (0,1,3, and 7) days immersion and Wheel Truck test was used to evaluated the resist to rutting. The best gradation and optimum asphalt content was selected according to Superpave system. Superpave Gyratory Compactor (SGC) was used to compact mixture with 100-mm diameter. The test results indicated that addition of RAP to mixes showed significant increase on resistance of Durability and Rutting.

This paper will cover some processing routes along with grading and physical/chemical attributes of silica sand. The silica sand in this experiment was divided into four lots, and each of them was processed by the methods of calcining, scrubbing, mulling or rubbing respectively. The test results show that the sand grains which processed by different processing methods are irregular, the acid demand value of sand is lower than that of the base sand, and the grain size distribution of sand is similar to that of the base sand. However, the SiO2 content of processed sand is increased, the impurities content has a downward trend. Compared with the base sand, it can be found that the tensile strength value of molding sand prepared using the processed sands is higher and the bench life is almost no change.

At the beginning,we used the ABAQUS to establish a two-dimensional finite element model of typical asphalt pavement, and analysised the changing axiom of road surface shearing stress under the half sine wave load. Also, we studied on the impact of damping ratio and the driving speed on shearing stress. Finally, by using SPSS13.0 software to compare the impact of speed, the surface layer material damping ratio, lower modulus ratio, the thickness of the surface layer and the thickness of the subbase. The results show that, to reduce the cracking damage caused by oversized shearing stress in asphalt pavement, we should first consider the damping ratio of surface layer material, and the most effective method is to use the road-building material of high damping ratio to prevent cracks, at the same time we should raise the driving speed.

The main objective of this study was to investigate the effects of hot mix asphalt material properties on the performance of flexible pavements via mechanistic approach. 3D Move Analysis software was utilized to determine rutting and cracking distresses in an asphalt concrete (AC) layer. Fourteen different Superpave mixes were evaluated by utilizing results of the Dynamic Modulus (|E⁎|) Test and the Dynamic Shear Modulus (|G⁎|) Test. Results showed that with the increase of binder content, the tendency of rutting in AC layer increased. However, with the increase of binder content, the cracking of AC layer lessened. Furthermore, when different binder grades were evaluated, results showed that with the increase of the upper binder grade number, rutting decreased, and with the increase of the lower binder grade number, rutting increased. Furthermore, analysis showed that with the increase of the lower binder grade number, higher percent of bottom up cracks would result. As a result of the analysis, binder grade should not be solely considered for cracking in AC layer; binder content and aggregate structure play a big role. Finally, results illustrated that the mechanistic approach is a better tool to determine the performance of asphalt pavement than commonly used methods.

In this paper, cement is used to stabilize reclaimed asphalt pavement materials (RAP) and original aggregate with the same gradation. Compressive strength, freezing-thawing resistance and fatigue life of cement recycled RAP mixture (CRAPM) and cement stabilize original aggregate mixture (CSAM) are evaluated. Test results indicate the compressive adhesive strength of cement-RAP is lower than cement-original aggregate. At the same gradation, RAP has negative effect on the freezing-thawing resistance of CRAPM, and can increase the fatigue life sensitive to stress level. Therefore, for using 100% RAP, it is necessary to increase the cement content to properly improve the strength and durability of RAPM in order to satisfy the specification of cement stabilized base materials in china.

The two Baltic countries, Lithuania and Latvia, use asphalt mixtures with granite slag that is imported from other countries to install the top layer of asphalt pavement, which is quite expensive. One of the requirements for aggregates used in road construction is mechanical properties. There are some differences between these countries based on national requirements. The article presents test methods for determining the mechanical properties of aggregates. According to them, the mechanical properties of aggregates were tested: resistance to fragmentation, wear, polishing and to wear by abrasion from studded tyre. Tested aggregates were Lithuanian dolomite quarry stone, which was made based on the developed and common technologies as well as imported granite from Ukraine. The analysis and evaluation of the test results have been carried out by the requirements for mineral aggregates of Lithuania and Latvia. Santrauka Dvi Baltijos šalys, Lietuva ir Latvija, asfalto dangos viršutiniam sluoksniui įrengti naudoja asfalto mišinius su granito skalda, kuri importuojama iš kitų šalių, o tai gana brangu. Vienas iš reikalavimų mineralinėms medžiagoms, naudojamoms kelių tiesyboje, yra mechaninės savybės. Jos minėtose šalyse pagal nacionalinius normatyvinius reikalavimus šiek tiek skiriasi. Straipsnyje pateikti mineralinių medžiagų mechaninių savybių nustatymo bandymo metodų aprašai. Pagal juos atlikti skaldų mechaninių savybių bandymai: atsparumas smūgiams, trupinimui, dėvėjimuisi, poliruojamumui (LST EN 1097-8:2009. Bandymai užpildų mechaninėms ir fizikinėms savybėms nustatyti. 8 dalis. Akmens poliruojamumo nustatymas) bei dygliuotoms padangoms. Ištirtos skaldos yra Lietuvos dolomito karjero skalda, pagaminta pagal patobulintą ir įprastą technologijas, bei granito skalda iš Ukrainos. Atlikta gautų bandymų rezultatų analizė bei vertinimas pagal Lietuvos ir Latvijos reikalavimus mineralinėms medžiagoms.
