Due to repeated loads, the pavement structures will experience repeated stresses and strains resulting in permanent deformation even though the working loads are still smaller than the design load. The permanent deformation will lead to cracking and fatigue failure with the life of the pavement. This phenomenon can be reduced by increasing the stiffness, flexibility, durability, stability and

The challenge: perfect a binding agent stiff enough to withstand permanent deformation of asphalt pavement — a.k.a. tire rutting — from exposure to high temperatures and traffic, but also one sufficiently pliable to relax and stretch without cracking from contraction during periods of

Asphalt has a key further attribute in that it can be 100% recycled without downgrading its functionality, and is currently the most recycled construction material in the world. Many other construction materials can claim recyclability but this often involves downgrading, for example as lower grade aggregate.

ANALYSIS OF STRUCTURAL MODELING FOR RECYCLED ASPHALT PAVEMENT USED AS A BASE LAYER A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of the North Dakota State University of Agriculture and Applied Science By Ehab Magdy Salah Noureldin In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Major Department:

A significant amount of recycled asphalt pavement (RAP) material is produced from flexible pavement rehabilitation projects. RAP can be used as a base course material for sustainable pavement construction.

2 1. Introduction 27 Due to increases in traffic28 volume, specifically heavy trucks, in terms of numbers of vehicles 29 and high tyre pressures, above average demands are being placed on existing road pavements. 30 Both horizontal and vertical stresses induced between pavement layers, result in permanent 31 deformation (rutting) and crack formation [1].

Stone mastic asphalt (SMA), also called stone-matrix asphalt, was developed in Germany in the 1960s with the first SMA pavements being placed in 1968 near Kiel. It provides a deformation-resistant, durable surfacing material, suitable for heavily trafficked roads. SMA has found use in Europe, Australia, the United States, and Canada as a durable asphalt surfacing option for residential streets

The rehabilitation investigation revealed that the condition of the pavement prior to rehabilitation permanent deformation was observed but in some areas the surfacing and upper base had graded asphalt plus a bitumen-rubber asphalt overlay or in-situ recycling of the base followed by a

Recycled Asphalt Pavement (RAP) is a removed and reprocessed pavement material containing asphalt and aggregates which can be used as a base course material for pavement The behavior of unpaved RAP bases, such as permanent deformation, percentage of elastic deformation, stress distribution, and strains in the geocell walls was investigated

permanent deformation and 7-day UCS is statistically significant. Given that the principle conclusion from this work is that CTB with high RAP contents can perform satisfactorily as a base material when a sufficient amount of cement is applied, Recycling of the asphalt surface

by modifying cracking and permanent defor-mation algorithms (26). Fatigue cracking is a common distress that affects pavement service life (29). The failure criterion for permanent deformation is expressed by equation [1]: Nf = (ε)− dc f 1 2 [1] where N. d is the allowable number of load rep-etitions to limit permanent deformation, ɛ c is the
