Design and Evaluation of Asphalt Mixtures for Stress Absorbing Pavement Layers

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper deals with the use of special asphalt-rubber mixture, the Stress Absorbing Layer (SAL). Description of SAL and test methods is given in theoretical part of this paper. Several different mixtures were designed and selected ones subsequently tested. Low-temperature properties, rutting test, bending tensile relaxation, stiffness modulus and fatigue properties were determined. These parameters are stated for asphalt-rubber mixtures with aggregate sizes up to 5 mm, 8 mm or 16 mm.
