A Breakthrough Concept in the Preparation of Highly-Sustainable Photocatalytic Warm Asphalt Mixtures
The objective of this study is to test the hypothesis that titanium dioxide (TiO2) can function as a photocatalytic compound when used in the preparation of warm-mix asphalt (WMA). The proposed asphalt mixture would combine the benefits of WMA such as reduced energy consumption and emission during production with the photocatalytic properties of TiO2 to trap and degrade organic and inorganic pa...
Using Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement (RAP) in asphalt mixes has become a common practice in many countries as experience indicated that the recycling of asphalt pavements is very advantageous from different perspectives. Some of the advantages of utilizing RAP include conservation of asphalt and aggregate resources, conservation of energy, and reduction in life-cycle cost. In this study, the suitab...
This study demonstrates the use of Class F fly ash in combination with lime or lime kiln dust in the full depth reclamation (FDR) of asphalt pavements. FDR, in the context of this paper, is a process of pulverizing a predetermined amount of flexible pavement that is structurally deficient, blending it with chemical additives and water, and compacting it in place to construct a new stabilized ba...
This paper wants to raise awareness of LCA/CF tools that have been built within European projects in the last 5-6 years and that are freely-available on the internet: asPECT, ECORCE M and CARBON ROAD MAP. The tools will be compared in terms of their architecture and system boundaries considered, as well as on the basis of the results of a comparative carbon foot printing exercise of several hig...
The permanent deformation pavement of roads and streets at tropical zones Abstract (if layers are sufficiently compacted) is due to increase of asphalt layers temperature and consequential decrease of modulus of elasticity. Therefore, the asphalt mixture moves aside of the wheels of heavy vehicles and cause permanent deformations without volume variation. On the other hand, if the asphalt layer...
Road distress results in high maintenance costs. However, increased understandings of asphalt behaviour and properties coupled with technological developments have allowed paving technologists to examine the benefits of introducing additives and modifiers. As a result, polymers have become extremely popular as modifiers to improve the performance of the asphalt mix. This study investigates the ...
Asphaltic concrete for pavement construction in India are produced by using crushed stone, gravels etc. as aggregate. In north-Eastern region of India, there is a scarcity of stone aggregate. Therefore the road engineers are always in search of an optional material as aggregate which can replace the regularly used material. The purpose of this work was to evaluate the utilization of substandard...
An optimal scheme of road paving maintenance was investigated by examining the environmental loading and cost considerations of pavement operations over a 30-year life cycle. Results indicated that the application of recycled materials in pavement construction and repair reduced the effects of environmental loading over the life cycle by approximately 40%. Furthermore, it was observed that envi...
In support of the initiatives for implementing the new MechanisticEmpirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG) in Iowa, a preliminary sensitivity study was undertaken to assess the comparative effect of design input parameters pertaining to material properties, traffic and climate on performance of two existing flexible pavements in Iowa with relatively thick Asphalt Concrete (AC) layers. A total of...
Over the past twenty years; road traffic (both passenger and freight) has grown significantly in Pakistan. Higher axle loads and repetitions have resulted in premature rutting of flexible pavements. Rutting, in the form of shear flow is a typical distress that mainly attributed to increased tire pressure, high temperature and heavy axle loads. Consequently, National Highway Authority (NHA), Pak...
