Bitumen, an important component used in road construction in Australia and New Zealand, is manufactured from a finite, non-renewable crude oil resource. A number of commercially available alternative binders and bitumen extended binders have been…
This document provides a guide to the selection of modified binders including multigrade bitumens for different treatments and service conditions, and to assist in the use and interpretation of the Austroads Specification Framework for Polymer…
The 2011 Austroads Guide to Pavement Technology Part 5: Pavement Evaluation and Treatment Design includes an interim procedure for the thickness design of foamed bitumen stabilised (FBS) pavements. This project aimed to validate the interim…
