In respect of latest development of asphalt concrete mixtures for long lasting pavement and heavy vehicles with a focus on sustainability of flexible pavement has this project started. A test road with under designed road sections is planned to investigate the effect of recently developed mixtures in comparison to the conventional mixtures and flexible structures. The alternative mixtures will be selected in cooperation with the road contractors. Changes in pavement performance of the pavement structures will be predicted based on field monitoring, including response measurement and additional laboratory evaluation of mixtures. The objective of this study is to predict differences in the pavement performance of the flexible pavements during initial stage, approximately under initial three years with respect to risk for rutting, cracking and durability of pavement materials. |
