Motivation

§ White House: 65 percent of America’s major roads are rated in less than good condition § Performance tests are starting to become mature and field validation data is becoming available for developing performance related/based specifications § Fracture testing based cracking tests are starting to get adopted § There is need for understanding of effects of aging and temperature on fracture behavior of asphalt mixtures

Semi-Circular Bend (SCB) Test

§ Multiple variants exist

– Early work in Europe – Simultaneous cold (Marasteanu et al. – MN) and intermediate temperature (Mohamed et al. – LA) versions – Recent work from Al-Qadi et al. (IL) à AASHTO TP 105

§ AASHTO TP 107

– Line load control, loading rate = 50 mm/min – Test temperature = 25 deg. C

§ Measurements:

– Displacement – Load

§ Outcomes

– Fracture Energy – Flexibility Index (FI)

Current Adoption Efforts of Fracture Tests

§ Semi-Circular Bend

§ Disk-shaped Compact Tension

– City of Chicago – Illinois Tollways – Wisconsin for High RAM Projects (Hanz et al. NEAUPG 2015) – Minnesota Department of Transportation § Pilot implementation on 7 projects in 2013 § Multi-lab round-robin testing in 2015 (17 projects) § Fabrication and conditioning process effects in 2015-16 (11 projects) § Provisional specification is now available

Current Specifications / Adoption Approaches

§ Illinois Research on SCB Flexibility Index:

§ Single Test Temperature = 25 deg. C § Short term aged specimens following AASHTO R30

§ Wisconsin High RAM Projects

– SCB testing at 25 deg. C – DCT testing at specified PG LT + 10 deg. C – Both SCB and DCT on AASHTO R 30 long term aged procedure § 5 days at 85 deg. C on compacted specimens

§ Minnesota Specification

– DCT testing at 10 deg. C warmer than required 95% reliability PG LT (in other words, without 6 deg. C rounding) – AASHTO R30 short term aging

§ Challenges: Is 25 deg. C temperature suitable for all locations? How to handle reheating and long term aging?

Aging and Temperature Effects on Cracking, Eshan Dave, NEAUPG 10/20/2016

Summary and Conclusions

§ Effect of temperature on fracture behavior of asphalt mixtures:

–Increasing temperature à Lower peak load (lower fracture stress) and Increased ductility –Non unique response between mixtures –Transition from ductile to brittle is mix (binder and other constituent) dependent –Use of single 25 deg. C for all regions may not be a good idea!

Aging and Temperature Effects on Cracking, Eshan Dave, NEAUPG 10/20/2016

Summary and Conclusions (cont.)

§ Effect of aging on fracture behavior of asphalt mixtures:

–New draft aging protocol from NCHRP 09-54 was evaluated here §Big drop in cracking resistance from short term to 14 day aging, small change from 14 to 21 day aging –Aging substantially changes fracture behavior at intermediate temperature –Age conditioning should be included in cracking (fracture) performance test

34

Aging and Temperature Effects on Cracking, Eshan Dave, NEAUPG 10/20/2016

Summary and Conclusions (cont.)

§ Performance testing can provide insight into mixture behavior:

–20% and 40% VT RAP mixes showed similar cracking performance at intermediate and low temperatures –Sensitivity to effects of aging were comparable between 0% and 30% NH and NY mixes –40% RAP VA mixture with “PG HT only” grade bumping led to substantial drop in cracking resistance
