The mechanical test included the Marshall Stability, resilient modulus, creep stiffness, and indirect tensile strength (ITS) tests.
Results shows an improvement in Marshall Stability, resilient modulus, and ITS performance was recorded with the replacement of 5% treated WCO in bituminous mixture.
Moreover, laboratory tests results indicated that use of coarse SS aggregate in WMA mixture enhances Marshall stability, resilient modulus, tensile strength, resistance to moisture damage and resistance to permanent deformation of the mixture.
The results showed that the use of steel slag can enhance Marshall stability, resilient modulus, tensile strength, resistance to moisture damage and resistance to permanent deformation of CIR mixes.
Test results show that nanoclay can improve properties such as stability, resilient modulus and indirect tensile strength and result in superior performance compared to that of unmodified bitumen under dynamic creep.
To understand the basis of Tr's resilient binding and stability to high temperatures, in the present study we solved the crystal structures of both apo-Tr and biotin Tr and compared these with existing structures of SA.
Results showed that the Marshall stability, ITS, resilient modulus and dynamic creep of the asphalt mixture were significantly improved with the addition of 6% NCA.
The research showed that adding Gilsonite to bitumen in hot asphalt mixtures considerably increases Marshall Stability and resilient modulus parameter in asphalt specimens.
All samples, including the control AC samples (no CBs), were tested for mechanical and volumetric properties, including stability, flow, resilient modulus, bulk density, maximum density, air voids, and voids in mineral aggregates.
Based on the obtained results in comparison to the reference mix (i.e. a mix containing limestone powder) the coal waste and its ash resulted in higher stability and resilient modulus.
