Laboratory Assessment of Asphalt Permeability
The test method outlines the procedure for determining the permeability of a water-saturated asphalt specimen in the laboratory using the ponding method. The test method was primarily developed for dense-graded, stone mastic and gap-graded asphalt…
Laboratory Fatigue Characterisation of Foamed Bitumen Stabilised Materials
This report documents a project to develop a new laboratory fatigue relationship to predict the performance of foamed bitumen stabilised (FBS) materials. The project focused on extensive laboratory experiments including indirect tensile testing and…
Use of Road-grade Recycled Plastics for Sustainable Asphalt Pavements: Towards the Selection of Road-grade Plastics – An Evaluation Framework and Preliminary Experimental Results
This report provides a comprehensive overview of the initial development of various testing frameworks for the characterisation of road-grade recycled plastic, the incorporation of recycled plastics in bitumen and asphalt via various methods (wet,…
Asphalt Joints
This Pavement Work Tip details techniques to ensure that joints in asphalt do not create a point of weakness due to poor compaction and that correct shape and ride quality are maintained.
Sprayed Sealing – Uniformity and Neatness
This Work Tip details work practices that help ensure uniformity of Binder Application Rates and neatness of joints in sprayed seals.
Sprayed Sealing – Joint Locations and Effect on Binder Application Rates
This Pavement Work Tip considers traffic distribution and its effect on the suitable location of joints and where the design Binder Application Rates should be varied to allow for the expected traffic volume.
