Climate change is increasing the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events, posing challenges to the durability of asphalt road pavement systems. Incorporating waste plastics, such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET), into asphalt mixtures has been proposed as a potential approach to reduce bitumen demand and modify mechanical performance ...

Abstract The longevity of porous asphalt pavement is inevitably compromised by the clogging of voids by various particles, leading to a degradation in its drainage function. Numerical simulations with real pore structures were used to investigate the clogging behavior of porous asphalt concrete (PAC) to clearly and intuitively understand its void ...

Estimating Optimum Compaction Level for Dense-Graded Hot-Mix Asphalt Mixtures
A critical step in the design of asphalt mixtures is laboratory compaction. Laboratory compaction should reflect field compaction and should produce mixtures that are economical and possess high structural stability.

Mapping Temperature Zone of Ethiopia for Binder Performance Grading System
Several studies from the Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP) have demonstrated that improving asphalt binder standards by incorporating performance‐based characteristics can benefit road network administrators. This approach provides a better understanding of pavement behavior during its operational phase.

Investigation of the Temperature‐Dependent Precompaction and Flow Behavior of Hot Mix Asphalt
The flow behavior and precompaction resistance were investigated for the first time as part of this study. New laboratory methods were developed and applied for this purpose, some of which were based on already established methods. In order to evaluate the influence of temperature on the paving behavior of the asphalt paver, the flow behavior and ...

Performance of Indiana's Superpave HMA Mixtures
This project followed the performance of a number of hot mix asphalt paving projects for seven to eight years in an attempt to relate laboratory test results to field performance. First, a small scale study compared sampling locations, specific gravity test procedures and compaction devices used on two samples from projects, one with volumetric ...
