Traffic loadings considering temperature for pavement rutting life

摘要: The procedures for obtaining Temperature Conversion Factor (TCF) are described. This factor accounts the pavement temperature variation during full-scale truck trafficking. results from changes in air and distribution of with depth structure. Repeated load triaxial tests at multiple temperatures were conducted to consi der effects on an asphalt mixture terms permanent deformation. TCF was calculated using repeat ed layered strain based field depth. applied convert ESALs ESALS standard temperature, which can be used controlled laboratory accelerated (APT) or material property tests. provided a simple, convenient way traffic loading various its equivalent
