Evaluation of Rutting Resistance and Moisture Sensitivity of Warm-Mix Asphalt Mixtures Using the Model Mobile Loading Simulator(MMLS3)

Investigating the rutting and moisture sensitivity of warm mix asphalt with varying contents of recycled asphalt pavement

rutting resistance evaluation of large stone asphalt mixtures

rutting of hot mix asphalt pavements due to increased number of heavy vehicles, especially in tropical regions, causes several performance problems. large stone asphalt mixtures have more stiffness and shear resistance and so more rutting resistance compared to conventional mixtures. hence, using these mixtures in thick layers of hot mix asphalt pavements at tropical regions could be an appropr...

Ncat Evaluates Warm Mix Asphalt

In addition to lower emissions warm mix asphalt has several advantages over hot mix asphalt such as fuel energy savings, decreased binder aging and an extended paving season (Photo courtesy: Matthew Corrigan, FHWA) The National Center for Asphalt Technology (NCAT) is evaluating warm mix asphalt (WMA) technologies. WMA technology allows the mixing, lay down, and compaction of asphalt mixes at si...
