Performance of Grooved Warm-Mix Asphalt Pavement Surfaces Under Heavy Aircraft Load and High Tire Pressure

摘要: This paper presents an evaluation of the performance grooved warm-mix asphalt (WMA) under heavy aircraft loading compared with that hot-mix (HMA). Runway surface grooving is often required to provide high skid resistance for braking, particularly in wet conditions where hydroplaning must be minimized. An area potential concern use WMA on airfield runway pavements material response grooving. If binder softer than comparable HMA because reduced aging during production and placement, mixture may more likely experience groove closure or collapse. condition could result issues reduction water discharge also chipping aggregate from edges, which increase foreign object damage. A full-scale experiment was designed evaluate two pavement curing three mixtures. Traffic applied ...
