This research aims to determine if the observed improvements using polyethylene (PE) waste in asphalt binder translate into better performance at mixture scale laboratory environment while overcoming stability and homogeneity issues experienced level. is accomplished through a round-robin multinational experimental program covering four continents, with active participation of eleven laboratories within RILEM TC 279-WMR. PE modified AC16 mixtures were prepared employing dry process local...
This research investigated the effect of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) from various sources on damage-related behaviour bitumen in intermediate- and high-temperature domains. For this purpose, base was modified by mass fraction 1.5% HDPE post-industrial recycled pellets post-consumer flakes. The experimental programme consisted multiple stress creep recovery 40 to 70°C linear shear strain amplitude sweep at 10, 20, 30°C. significantly reduced non-recoverable compliance but increased...
The objective of the research was development, optimisation and evaluation thin noise-reducing surface layers in Germany intended to be more durable than porous asphalts, thus providing better long-term acoustical properties. basic approach create a smooth, open-textured with stone mastic asphalt-based aggregate skeleton across whole thickness layer. test pavements Düsseldorf were subjected both optical 3D measurements texture parameters continuous close-proximity method monitoring noise...
Tests on asphalt binder are typically performed in its linear viscoelastic (LVE) range. In this research, the rheological properties of neat and styrene–butadiene-styrene (SBS)-modified binders were examined from 0.01% to 1000% at a high usage temperature, focus was placed their non-linear (NLVE) behaviours. Experimental variations property changes small, medium large-amplitude oscillatory shears revealed. Besides strain amplitude, effects polymer content, short-term aging test frequency...
The research objective was the evaluation of surface texture parameters commonly applied asphalt mixtures without any special requirements regarding noise reduction on one side, and porous thin noise-reducing other. considered three geometrically four acoustically relevant determined by an optical three-dimensional (3D) measuring device based strips projection principle. mean arithmetic height identified as most suitable for geometrical characterization showed best correlation with shape...
Permanent deformation in asphalt layers which manifestation on pavement surface is named rutting represents one of the most significant distresses pavements. Depending level, it can be a huge inconvenience for traffic safety, driving comfort, and overall life-cycle. Rutting may classified into three basic types: one-dimensional or vertical compaction, lateral flow plastic movement, mechanical deformation. As an addition to Superpave? mixture volumetric design three, so called, simple...
