Asphalt foaming techniques have been used over the last couple of decades as an
alternative to the traditional method of preparing asphalt mixtures. Various efforts have been …

Incorporation of electric arc furnace (EAF) steel slag aggregates in asphalt mixes boosts
their performance, but the high bitumen consumption is the primary obstacle that hinder their …

The objectives of this paper are (1) to characterize the mechanical properties of porous
asphalt pavement mixtures containing reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) and a WMA …

An emphasis on environmental stewardship has prompted the use of warm-mix
technologies aimed at allowing for production of conventional asphalt mixtures at reduced …

Nos últimos anos tem sido bastante comum a ocorrência de problemas associados à
deformação permanente nos revestimentos asfálticos aplicados em rodovias brasileiras. O …

Warm mix asphalt (WMA) and recycled asphalt pavements (RAP) are two popularly used
sustainable technologies in pavement industry. Because RAP materials contain aged …

Compaction is a crucial topic for asphalt mixture in that the success of mix design greatly
depends on the compaction method being used, and the asphalt pavement achieves the …

Laboratory Proctor and vibratory table compaction tests are commonly used to determine
moisture-density-compaction energy relationships for soils and are typically limited to one or …

Traditionally, asphalt mixtures were produced at high temperatures (between 150 C to 180
C) and therefore often referred to as Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA). Recently, a new technology …

In Brazil, there are two most recurrent defects found on highways: permanent deformation
and cracking due to fatigue. Among the most varied causes, the formation and propagation …
