Low Temperature Performance of Sasobit-Modified Warm-Mix Asphalt
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In the summer of 2008, a field trial project using Sasobit-modified warm-mix asphalt (WMA) was established in Alaska, which was Alaska’s first experience with a WMA technology. Previous studies conducted by writers identified ...
Selecting Construction Measures for Mitigating Early-Age Delamination in CRC Pavements Made with Gravel Aggregates
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Gravel aggregates have been used extensively in the Houston District for continuously reinforced concrete (CRC) pavements construction for many years. However, some of these pavements have been subject to early-age ...
Determining the Shapes of Yield Curves for Unsaturated Soils by Modified State Surface Approach
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Attention is increasingly paid to the elastoplastic behavior of unsaturated soils. In the development of an elastoplastic framework for unsaturated soils, it is necessary to determine the initial shape of the yield curve ...
Materials and Temperature Effects on the Resilient Response of Asphalt-Treated Alaskan Base Course Materials
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Asphalt-treated bases (ATBs) are the most commonly used type of stabilized layer in Alaska because of locally available asphalt resources and its relatively lower cost. As an essential material input parameter for pavement ...
Laboratory Investigation of Influencing Factors on Early-Age Delamination in CRC Pavements
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Studies since the early 1990s have been conducted in Texas to gain a better understanding of mechanisms, material properties, and construction practices related to early-age delamination in continuously reinforced concrete ...
Laboratory Evaluation of Sasobit-Modified Warm-Mix Asphalt for Alaskan Conditions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A number of completed or ongoing studies on different aspects of warm-mix asphalt (WMA) have being conducted in the United States, indicating pavement professionals’ strong interest in exploring the application of this ...
