Modification of the Properties of Warm Mix Asphalt Using Recycled Plastic Bottles
Construction of flexible pavements with hot mix asphalt (HMA) mixtures consumes huge energy which impacts the resources and the environment of the world. Warm Mix Asphalt (WMA) is an effective alternative as they produced with lower mixing and compaction temperature than those used in HMA production. This technology decreases energy consumption, saves money, and reducing the environmental pollu...
متن کاملLaboratory Study and Investigation on Significance Level of Fatigue Phenomenon in Warm Mix Asphalt Modified with Nano-Silica
The present research aims to conduct laboratory assessment on fatigue phenomenon in warm mix asphalt modified with nano-silica and including reclaimed asphalt pavement materials by the aid of review on self-healing behavior and measurement of validity of laboratory results by modeling via neural artificial network in neutral network of SPSS software. For this purpose, 2% weight of sasobit and 3...
متن کاملInvestigation of Rutting Performance of WMA Mixtures Containing Copper Slag
Copper slag (CS) is an abrasive blasting grit made of granulated slag from metal smelting processes. As copper slags are known to be waste material and cause a lot of environmental problems, it would be a good idea to use them in different sections of industry such as pavement construction. On the other hand, in order to save energy and reduce the amount of pollutants re...
متن کاملEvaluating the Performance of Hot Mix Asphalt with Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement and Heavy Vacuum Slops as Rejuvenator
Due to the high price of crude oil, and consequently asphalt binder, the application of Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement (RAP) in pavement technology is widely considered. The present paper is the result of a laboratory research which was carried out to investigate the effects of adding a rejuvenating agent to Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) with RAP. To this end, test samples comprised of Aged Asphalt Binder ...
متن کاملNcat Evaluates Warm Mix Asphalt
In addition to lower emissions warm mix asphalt has several advantages over hot mix asphalt such as fuel energy savings, decreased binder aging and an extended paving season (Photo courtesy: Matthew Corrigan, FHWA) The National Center for Asphalt Technology (NCAT) is evaluating warm mix asphalt (WMA) technologies. WMA technology allows the mixing, lay down, and compaction of asphalt mixes at si...
