The environmental impacts of producing asphalt mixtures with different percentages of asphalt binder replacement (ABR) are assessed using the technique of life cycle assessment (LCA). In this paper, only the material production phase of the pavement life cycle is considered. To improve the quality of the LCA, a regionalized life cycle inventory (LCI) database for the Northern Illinois region is...

This report evaluates the effectiveness of rubber-asphalt and ebonite-asphalt mixes based on a review of published literature and unpublished reports. It discusses in detail various aspects of these mixes, including: diffe ent applications, physical properties, experiences of state highway agencies, and claimed advantages and problems associated with their use. The addition of ground tire rubbe...

This study presents a finite element (FE) micromechanical modelling approach for the simulation of linear and damage-coupled viscoelastic behaviour of asphalt mixture. Asphalt mixture is a composite material of graded aggregates bound with mastic (asphalt and fine aggregates). The microstructural model of asphalt mixture incorporates an equivalent lattice network structure whereby intergranular...

This study investigated the effect of high asphalt binder replacement for a low N-design asphalt mixture including RAP and RAS on performance indicators such as permanent deformation, fracture, fatigue potentials, and stiffness, was studied. An experimental program included complex modulus, fracture, overlay reflective cracking resistance, wheel track permanent deformations, and push-pull fatig...

Using Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement (RAP) in asphalt mixes has become a common practice in many countries as experience indicated that the recycling of asphalt pavements is very advantageous from different perspectives. Some of the advantages of utilizing RAP include conservation of asphalt and aggregate resources, conservation of energy, and reduction in life-cycle cost. In this study, the suitab...

The objective of this study is to review existing literature in the area of nano-modification of asphalt and proceed to apply nano-materials to asphalt to improve the performance. This study integrates literature review, preparation, and characterization of nano-modified asphalt materials. In the experimental testing montmorillonite, nanoclay at 2% and 4% by weight of asphalt was blended in asp...

Language: English The Challenge At the outset the asphalt paving process seems to be simple. Trucks deliver hot mix asphalt from plants to the construction site. There the asphalt is loaded on asphalt pavers that evenly spread the asphalt. Finally, compactors compact the asphalt to its required density. Despite this relatively structured process our research shows that there are significant dis...

BACKGROUND Asphalt workers are exposed to bitumen fume and vapour, and to exhaust from engines and passing traffic. AIMS To assess the occurrence of respiratory symptoms and signs of airflow limitations in a group of asphalt workers. METHODS All 64 asphalt workers and a reference group of 195 outdoor construction workers from the same company participated in a cross-sectional study. Spirome...

We report on dry asphalt roads acting as 'mayfly traps'; that is, they lure swarming, mating and egg-laying mayflies in large numbers. To explain this surprising behaviour, we performed multiple-choice experiments with Ephemeroptera in the field, and measured and compared the reflection-polarization characteristics of an asphalt road and a mountain creek from which mayflies emerge. We show here...

The National Center for Asphalt Technology (NCAT) completed a roundrobin study in March to determine the accuracy and precision of the NCAT asphalt content tester. The Center has conducted research since 1990 to develop this test method for determining asphalt content of hot mix asphalt (HMA) mixtures by ignition (See the fall, 1994, issue of Asphalt Technology News). In the ignition method, a ...
