| description abstract | Dense friction course asphalt (DFC) has been used since the late 1980s as the premium surface course on the Ontario Ministry of Transportation’s (MTO) major highways. It was designed for a 12–15 year service life with minimum maintenance, primarily to resist excessive rutting problems associated with heavy commercial vehicles. However, in many cases, major rehabilitation of DFC highways was necessary within 4–7 years of paving. Failures occurred through abundant loss of fine aggregate, potholing, raveling, and occasionally delamination. MTO attempted to solve the problem by increasing the asphalt cement content of DFC, a procedure that proved costly and inefficient. This study used a | |
