Prediction of Rutting Formation in Asphalt Concrete Pavement

rutting performance of polypropylene modified asphalt concrete

rutting in asphalt concrete is a very common form of distress in asphalt concrete pavement which unfortunately has been incurable to date. one of the prime reasons of rutting is attributed to the behaviour of asphalt binder at elevated temperature. this study has investigated the performance of polypropylene fibres modified asphalt concrete mix against rutting. two types of asphalt concrete sam...

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

Rutting Based Evaluation of Asphalt Mixes

Pavement rutting is one of the most common and destructive pavement distresses being observed in flexible pavements, which is primarily due to axle loads that exceed legal limit and high ambient temperatures, and also poor mix design is one of the cause of rutting. The drastic increase in traffic volume during last few decades has resulted in premature pavement failures of almost the whole road...

Asphalt Additives to Control Rutting and Cracking

This report presents the results of an investigation of the performance of a variety of materials added to asphalt binders and mixtures to change their properties, particularly with respect to rutting and cracking. The approach included a field trial of seven polymer and particulate modifiers, supplemented by laboratory characterization of the materials used in the field. The modifiers evaluate...
