Determining the Foaming Characteristics of Bitumen
Foaming of bitumen permits the bitumen to be evenly distributed throughout a soil or a granular material. It is critical for the bitumen to remain as viable foam for a period to enable it to be successfully blended into the host material.
Resilient Modulus of Foamed Bitumen Stabilised Materials
This method describes the procedure for the laboratory determination of the resilient modulus of test cylinders of foamed bitumen stabilised mixes using repeat load indirect tensile techniques.
Mixing of Foamed Bitumen Stabilised Materials
This method describes the procedure for adding foamed bitumen to a granular material to produce foamed bitumen stabilised material. The method is applicable to materials with a maximum nominal particle size of 40 mm (i.e. 100% passing the 37.5 mm…
Compaction of Test Cylinders of Foamed Bitumen Stabilised Materials Part 1: Dynamic Compaction using Marshall Drop Hammer
This method describes the procedure for compacting cylindrical test specimens suitable for use in the determination of physical properties. The method is applicable to materials with a maximum nominal particle size of 40 mm (i.e. 100% passing the 37.…
Heavy Vehicle Horizontal Stresses and Pavement Surface Performance

This report presents the findings of Austroads Project AT1540 Understanding the impact on pavement surfaces from next generation freight vehicles and developing practical network prediction models and responses. The main purpose of the project was…

Austroads LTPP/LTPPM Study - Summary Report 2015-16

This report provides a summary of activities completed during 2015–16 for the Austroads long term pavement performance monitoring project.

Austroads has funded the long-term pavement performance study since late 1994. The project monitors the…

Revised Interim Works Effect Models

This study sought to extend the understanding of pavement works effects (WE) by extending the scope of WE treatments and evaluation measures previously used.

The study was based on data extracted from Austroads long?term pavement performance (LTPP)…
