Characterization Tests for Mineral Fillers Related to Performance of Asphalt Paving Mixtures

摘要: Various studies have shown that the properties of mineral filler, especially material passing through a 0.075-mm (No. 200) sieve (generally called P200 material), significant effect on performance asphalt paving mixtures in terms permanent deformation, fatigue cracking, and moisture susceptibility. However, researchers employed different characterization tests for evaluating materials. This study was undertaken to determine which are most related mixtures. Six materials representing wide range mineralogical composition particle size were used. These characterized by six including Rigden voids, analysis, methylene blue test. Mixes prepared with two fines ratios (0.8 1.5) weight. Mix validation included Superpave shear test deformation Hamburg wheel tracking an...
