Research on Resistance to Moisture Damage of Warm Mix Rubber Asphalt Mixture

Article Preview

Abstract:

To verify the resistance to moisture damage of warm mix rubber asphalt mixture, the splitting strength test of warm mix rubber asphalt mixture (WMRAC-13) was conducted under different immersion time and immersion temperature. Test results show that freeze-thaw splitting strength of warm mix rubber asphalt mixture meets the requirement of moisture stability. The immersion splitting strengths in 60°C and 4°C decline with the extension of immersion time. The immersion splitting strengths in 60°C decline faster than those in 4°C. The best fitting function of immersion splitting strengths with immersion time obeys second-order polynomial and power function respectively, and their correlations are the best. The inflection point of attenuation curves is 3th day and 20th day respectively.
