Moisture damage is a primary mode of distress occurring in hot mix asphalt (HMA) pavements. Usually, the acid aggregate like gneiss must use some anti-stripping additive to resist water damage. Hydrated lime is best known as an anti-stripping additive since 1910. The purpose of this paper is to look at some aspects of the effects of aggregate chemical properties and hydrated lime on the dynamic mechanics and stripping behavior of hot mix asphalt. Two types of aggregates evaluated in this study were limestone and gneiss. The effects of the aggregates type were evaluated on four different aggregate gradations which were composed with the two aggregates in different proportion. And the hydrated lime has been used for HMA pavements to mitigate moisture-related damage in gneiss asphalt mixture. Laboratory tests for different asphalt mixture include Marshall Test, Frozen-thaw Cycle Test, Dynamic Modulus Test (DMT) and Indirect Tensile Fatigue Test (ITFT). Testing data and analyses demonstrated that different aggregate gradations have different mechanical properties. Hydrate lime has greatly contributed to moisture damage resistance in acid aggregate gneiss and enhanced the dynamic modulus. The modified with hydrated lime mixture composed with coarse gneiss aggregate and fine limestone aggregate also has better performance of the mixture against rutting, fatigue and thermal cracking. It can be concluded from ITFT tests that the fatigue life (load cycle times) of additive hydrated lime asphalt concrete is more than neat ones. At last, we can conclude that the selection and design that modified with hydrated lime and fine limestone aggregate replace acid aggregate could create multiple benefits in asphalt mixtures.

Moisture damage of asphalt mixtures is a major distress affecting the durability of asphalt pavements. The loaded wheel tracking (LWT) test is gaining popularity in determining moisture damage because of its ability to relate laboratory performance to field performance. However, the accuracy of LWT’s “pass/fail” criteria for screening mixtures is limited. The objective of this study was to evaluate the capability of the LWT test to identify moisture susceptibility of asphalt mixtures with different moisture conditioning protocols. Seven 12.5 mm asphalt mixtures with two asphalt binder types (unmodified PG 67-22 and modified PG 70-22), and three aggregate types (limestone, crushed gravel, and a semi-crushed gravel) were utilized. Asphalt binder and mixture samples were subjected to five conditioning levels, namely, a control; single freeze–thaw-; triple freeze–thaw-; MiST 3500 cycles; and MiST 7000 cycles. Frequency sweep at multiple temperatures and frequencies, and multiple stress creep recovery tests were performed to evaluate asphalt binders. LWT test was used to evaluate the asphalt mixture samples. Freeze–thaw and MiST conditioning resulted in an increase in stiffness in the asphalt binders as compared with the control. Further, freeze–thaw and MiST conditioning resulted in an increase in rut depth compared with the control asphalt mixture. The conditioning protocols evaluated were effective in exposing moisture-sensitive mixtures, which initially showed compliance with Louisiana asphalt mixture design specifications.

This study demonstrates an assessment into the different effects of lime as a mineral filler for use in densely graded hot mix asphalt (HMA). Five percent by mass of hydrated lime and lime kiln dust (LKD) were added to an asphalt mixture as its mineral filler. A series of laboratory tests to evaluate stability and flow, resilient modulus and tensile stripping ratio with reference to a control mix (a commonly used HMA) were performed. The test results showed that mixing hydrated lime into a HMA mix could enhance superior performance of hydrated lime-HMA test samples for all tests, demonstrating no moisture susceptibility. Test samples of HMA with LKD also demonstrated moisture resistance and can offer a sustainable alternative to hydrated lime, yielding one quarter of the cost. The control mix proved to be an inadequate choice upon failing the stripping potential test and therefore deemed to be susceptible to moisture.

The paper investigates the effects of different concentrations of crumb rubber (CR) on the pavement performance of the conventional penetration-grade 80/100 bitumen and the dense-graded wearing course asphalt mixture (AC16). A wet process and 0.6mm size CR were used and the control variables included three types of CR of concentrations 5%,10% and 15% by total weight of binder. The evaluations were twofold. Firstly, a comparison of the basic and rheological properties of those modified and unmodified binders was conducted. Secondly, a comparison of the resistance to moisture damage, low temperature cracking and permanent deformation of the AC16 and CR modified AC16 was performed. The results show that all the CR modified binders and mixtures are found to have improved performance as evaluated by a series of laboratory tests. In addition, among three CR concentrations, AC16 modified with 10%CR by total weight of binder exhibits the most satisfactory performance properties with respect to the resistance to moisture damage, permanent deformation and low temperature cracking.

The property of aggregate has a significant effect on the performance of asphalt mixture because of its high proportion. Asphalt mixture prepared by some kind of aggregate cause the inadequate compaction problem, which results in moisture damage due to its large air void. Limestone manufactured sand is considered as one of the useful solution to overcome the compaction problem. In this paper, fine aggregate is substituted by different proportion of limestone manufactured sand (LMS). The effect of replacement ratio on volume properties and pavement performance is studied. The results show that the limestone manufactured sand can improve the pavement performance and is benefit to the compaction of andesite asphalt mixture. Furthermore, this research also provided some valuable parameters for guiding the pavement construction in the future.
