pavement permanent deformations due to lack of shear strength in mixture are a major reason of rutting. any simple test to determine mixtures resistance to permanent deformation isn’t distinguished in the 1st level of superpave mix design method and prevalent methods for evaluating mixture rut resistance are expensive and time-consuming. two aggregate types, gradations, asphalt cements and fill...

Characteristics of produced concrete become changedthrough changingthe characteristics of materials constituting the concrete. These changes include: The quality of cement, the real ration of water to cement: with neglecting the further water within the aggregates or lack of that, the consideredratio fluctuates and the characteristics of the aggregate which are related to the following dimensio...

Asphalt pavement recycling has grown dramatically over the last few years as the preferred way to rehabilitate existing asphalt pavements. Rehabilitation of existing asphalt pavements has employed different techniques; one of them, cold in-place recycling with foamed asphalt (CIR-foam), has been effectively applied in Iowa. However, Iowa’s current cold in-place recycling (CIR) practice utilizes...

The use of waste materials in road construction is becoming widely spread due to economic and environmental needs. Construction demolition mining residues have been studied for a long time. However, the fine materials, mainly from mine tailing residue, still complex, as they can be used inert into mix or become reactive agent geopolymer mixes. In present paper, an experimental application basal...
