Fatigue Resistance of Thin Fiber-Reinforced Surfacing Asphalt Mixes in Laboratory Conditions

Abstract

AbstractFew countries are using the combination of thin asphalt surfaces on bound or unbound granular bases. Thick or full-depth asphalt pavements in smaller economies may be unaffordable, making thin asphalt surfaces a viable option. Given the ...Practical ApplicationsThe four-point bending beam fatigue test was completed to test thin (30 mm) and standard thickness beams (50 mm). There was no significant difference in fatigue resistance between standard-size beams and thin beams containing the ...
