Development of the Dynamic Shear Rheometer Consistency 6% Test Method for Polymer Modified Binders
This report describes research work into the development of a new test method utilising the dynamic shear rheometer (DSR) to conduct consistency 6% at 60 
Technical Basis of Austroads Guide to Pavement Technology Part 2: Pavement Structural Design
This report documents the technical basis of the 2010, 2012 and 2017 editions of Austroads&rsquo
Properties of General-purpose Cement with Increased Percentages of Limestone
This report presents the results of a research project commissioned by Austroads to investigate whether the currently used Australian general-purpose (GP) cement which complies with AS 3972, and which may contain up to 7.5% limestone as a mineral…
Accelerated Long-term Ageing Methods for Sprayed Sealing Binders: A Field Validation Study
This report presents the results of a field validation study conducted as part of the development of a new long term ageing test for polymer modified binders used in sprayed seals in Australia. Unaged samples of binders were collected during the…
Performance of Asphalt and Spray Grade PMBs in Sprayed Seals
The Australian polymer modified binder (PMB) specification (AGPT/T190) currently requires different binder grades to be used in sprayed sealing and asphalt applications. This study compared the sprayed seal performance of PMBs representing four AGPT/…
Construction Report for Cemented Test Pavements: Influence of Vertical Loading on the Performance of Unbound and Cemented Materials
This report details the construction of two test pavements which were used for an assessment of fatigue performance of cemented materials under full scale, rolling wheel, accelerated pavement testing (APT). The test pavement consisted of a sand…
