The asphalt pavement layer is composed of a mixture coarse aggregate, medium fine aggregate and asphalt. use derived from natural aggregates or rivers which are taken directly without the process breaking stone with crusher (Stone Crusher) resulted in poor quality will affect all Marshall test parameters. Therefore, research usinggravel broken planes, one plane, two many cracked areas on were c...

Stone Mastic Asphalt (SMA) has been broadly used on heavily trafficked roads and motorways in the UK due to its known stability durability. In this study, several sets of SMA mixtures were prod...

Over the last decade, unexpected and sudden pavement failures have occurred in several provinces in South Korea. Some of these failures remain unexplained, further illustrating the gaps in our knowledge about binder chemistry. To prevent premature pavement distress and enhance road performance, it is imperative to provide an adequate characterization of asphalt. For this purpose, the current re...

Field studies were conducted on several attic assemblies having stone-coated metal shake roofs with and without infrared blocking color pigments (IrBCPs) and with and without above-sheathing ventilation. The combination of increased solar reflectance and above-sheathing ventilation reduced the heat flow penetrating the attic floor by 70% as compared with the heat flow penetrating the attic floo...

Waste fibers produced from manufacturing processes are a byproduct commonly deposited in storing yards and/or landfills and thus results in many serious environmental problems in Iran. If these waste materials could be advantageously put to practical use in any application, it would reduce the burden on the environment and landfills. This paper compares the performance of the stone matrix aspha...

Stone mastic asphalt consists of two components coarse aggregate and bitumen-filled mortar (bituminous blend, filler, stabilizing additives like cellulosic or mineral fibers). Such a form hot mix (SMA) was first developed in Germany the mid-1960s to cope with corrosion ribbed wheel destruction. The mixture then known as stone asphalt, which not only immune wheels but also has strong resistance ...
