Abstract: This study was carried out to compare the moisture resistance of two types of mixtures [i.e., hot mix asphalt (HMA) and stone matrix asphalt (SMA)]. To achieve this purpose, three dense and three gap-graded aggregates were ...

Abstract: There are several approaches for improving adhesion and moisture sensitivity in asphalt mixtures, one of which is to coat the aggregate surface with a suitable agent to change the predominant electrical charges at the ...

Abstract: Effects of two of the most important factors influencing permanent deformation of styrene–butadiene–styrene (SBS)-modified and unmodified asphalt—frequency and temperature as well as their interactive effects—are studied ...
