Experimental Study on Foamed Asphalt Warm Mix Technology

Article Preview

Abstract:

Usually, foamed asphalt as cold recycling mixture binder, study on foamed asphalt warm mix technology was limited in China. Aimed at the asphalt foaming characteristic, the paper put forward the best asphalt foaming condition and carried out indoor and outdoor experiment to study the road performance of warm mixed asphalt mixture. The paper proposed the maturation curing time concept and its evaluation method. Results indicated that the warm mixed asphalt mixtures road performance can meet the HMA specification requirement in a lower temperature of construction, and low-temperature crack resistance was better than the tradition hot mix asphalt mixture so the warm mix foamed mixture has a remarkable economic and society benefit.
