Porous asphalt (PA) is a distinct mixture type that deliberately designed with stone-on-stone
contact of the coarse aggregate fraction and high percentage of interconnected air voids to …

During vehicle hydroplaning, the vehicle is caused to move on a thin layer of water by
accumulated undrained water on the pavement in front of the vehicle wheel. This thin layer …

Porous asphalt (PA) mixtures are designed with a high air void (AV)(ie, 18~ 22%) content
allowing rainwater to infiltrate into their internal structures. Therefore, PA mixtures are more …

The properties of coarse aggregates have a great influence on the mechanical
characteristics of porous asphalt concrete (PAC). The objective of this study is to reveal the …

Open-graded asphalt friction course (OGAFC) is an asphalt course constructed over a dense-
graded and impermeable surface to allow quick drainage of surface water runoff and enable …

Packing in coarse aggregates is the main factor for porous asphalt mixture's (PAM)
resistance to external loading and deformation. Eight PAM gradations were designed, and …

The compaction characteristics of porous asphalt (PA) mixtures are significantly different
from those of traditional dense-graded asphalt mixtures. Compaction efforts are critical for …

Porous asphalt mixture (PAM) is potentially suitable for application in wet environment given
its excellent performance in drainage due to the typical open-graded design, whilst ravelling …

The open structure of porous asphalt mix influences its strength and durability against air,
water and clogging materials. These factors cause loss of adhesion between binder …

Open graded friction course (OGFC) mixes have highly permeable structure, facilitating
effective drainage. However, the performance and durability of these surfaces can be …
