Method to Determine Asphalt Film Thickness Based on Actual Measurement

Article Preview

Abstract:

Based on the data got from actual measurement of mineral filler and aggregate surface area, this paper is going to present a new method, which is different from conventional approaches, to help to determine aggregate surface area. A formula that can be used to calculate aggregate surface area will be obtained. Currently, many methods are available to calculate asphalt film thickness. These methods are not perfect and deserve a new survey. Therefore, by referring to and analyzing those existing methods, this paper will put forward a revised, updated and instructive calculating formula to guarantee the accuracy of calculation.
