Experimental Study on Relationships among Composition, Microscopic Void Features, and Performance of Porous Asphalt Concrete
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The performance of porous asphalt concrete (PAC) is dependent on its microscopic void features, which may refer to content and distribution of its constituents. In other words, PAC mixtures with identical air voids may ...
Developing Rules of Adhesive Properties and Mechanism of Ballastless-Track Sealants in Shear-Fatigue Loading
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: There is no method for evaluating the shear-fatigue resistance of sealants installed in the supporting layer of ballastless track, and the degradation mechanism of sealants under shear-fatigue loading has not been studied ...
Evaluations of Asphalt-Based Sealant Used in Concrete Caulking: Rheology, Adhesion Properties, and Microstructures
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: A concrete expansion joint can be damaged due to certain conditions. The performances in terms of temperature sensitivity and adhesion of used sealant materials in concrete caulking have strong relations to the joint service ...
Upcycling Coal Gasification Slag to Enhance the Self-Healing Performance of Asphalt Mixtures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: With the extensive application of coal gasification technology, the production and storage of coal gasification slag continue to increase. Expanding the application scope of coal gasification slag is of positive significance ...
Evaluation and Comparison of Real-Time Laser and Electric Sand-Patch Pavement Texture-Depth Measurement Methods
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In order to measure the texture depth of asphalt pavement automatically and accurately, a data set generated by a real-time laser pavement texture meter (RLPTM) was realized, and a calculation method was developed. Three ...

Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In order to measure the texture depth of asphalt pavement automatically and accurately, a data set generated by a real-time laser pavement texture meter (RLPTM) was realized, and a calculation method was developed. Three ...
Test Method on Adhesive Property of Joint Sealant in Supporting Layer of Ballastless Slab Track
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The current test method cannot predict the properties of a joint sealant accurately, and therefore this paper proposes a new test method to evaluate its adhesive property. Field investigation was conducted to examine the ...
Carbon Fiber Powder as a Microwave-Sensitive Filler in Asphalt Mastic: Improving High-Temperature and Fatigue Resistance Properties
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Improving the microwave self-healing capability of asphalt mixtures contributes to reducing carbon emissions during maintenance and lowering costs over the road’s lifespan. Based on the prestudy of this current work, the ...
