Review of Innovative Binder Delivery Systems (Pilot Study)
This report presented a summary of three pilot studies completed on bitumen emulsions, foam bitumen sprayed sealing and warm mix asphalt.Increasing awareness of environmental issues and energy conservation have led to identifying alternative binder…
Australian and International Bituminous Binder Specifications
This literature review covers the development of bitumen specifications and test procedures from Australia, USA, Europe and South Africa. In order to have a better understanding of the imported bitumens into Australia, this report discusses the…
The Development and Evaluation of Protocols for the Laboratory Characterisation of Cemented Materials
The study involved a laboratory assessment of two cemented materials to assess their strength, modulus and fatigue properties. The cemented materials consisted of a hornfels crushed rock and a quartzite siltstone bound with general purpose cement at…
Fatigue Performance of Cemented Materials under Accelerated Loading: Influence of Vertical Loading on the Performance of Unbound and Cemented Materials
This research involved a performance assessment of two cemented pavement materials using the Accelerated Loading Facility (ALF) to simulate heavy axle loading. The assessment involved a number of axle loads from a standard half axle load of 40 kN to…
