Classification and Principle of Cast-in-Place Asphalt Mixtures
2012-11-21
There are various types of poured asphalt mixtures. Below, we will introduce the classification and principles of poured asphalt mixtures based on their different types.
By binder: petroleum asphalt mixtures, coal tar asphalt mixtures
By construction temperature: hot-mix hot-lay, cold-mix cold-lay, hot-plate cold-lay
By aggregate particle size: extra-coarse, coarse-grained, medium-grained, fine-grained, sand-grained
By aggregate gradation: continuous, discontinuous
By mixture density: dense-graded, semi-open-graded, and open-graded
According to the characteristics of the mixture, the structural types of asphalt mixtures used in road engineering and bridge deck pavements include suspension-dense, skeleton-void, and skeleton-dense asphalt mixtures.
Principle of material strength formation: high-temperature shear strength, cohesion, internal friction resistance, and internal friction angle.
Factors affecting the strength of asphalt mixtures: increased asphalt viscosity leads to increased cohesive force of the mixture; interaction between asphalt and mineral aggregates at the interface; surface area ratio of aggregate particles and asphalt content; and the influence of service conditions.
