The Effect of Steel Fiber on the Road Performence of Asphalt Concrete

Abstract:

In order to solve the problems relevant to asphalt concrete,such as cracking in low temperature, bleeding in high temperature and water damage,this paper put forward the ideal incorporation of steel fiber with asphalt concrete to reinforce the pavement performance and service life.By analyzing the test results such as rutting test, low temperature bending test,freeze-thaw splitting test and comparing with the stability in high temperature, anti-cracking performance in low temperature and the water stability between steel fiber asphalt concrete and the ordinary asphalt concrete,we can conclude that adding steel fiber with asphalt concrete can significantly improve the performance of road.This paper has reference value for choosing asphalt pavement in areas of low temperature and heavy traffic.
