Relating Laboratory and Natural Aging of Asphalt Mixtures Based on Low-Temperature Performance
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Thermal cracking of asphalt pavements is primary distress in cold regions. The Bending Beam Rheometer (BBR) can be used as a thermal cracking prediction tool for asphalt mixtures based on AASHTO TP 125. This study investigates ...
The Representative Sample Size for Field Application of the Bending Beam Rheometer as a Low-Temperature Performance Test of Asphalt Mixtures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The development of tests, standards, and specifications necessitates the establishment of technical validity while concurrently optimizing costs associated with the testing requirements. AASHTO TP 125-16 recommends the ...
Practicality of Driven Parameters of Semicircular Bending Test at Intermediate Temperature
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The semicircular bending (SCB) test characterizes crack resistance by determining the fracture toughness of asphalt mixtures. This test has been favored by many researchers due to the easy sample preparation and the ...
