چکیده انگلیسی
Flexible pavement in hot regions often show significant signs of distress, like rutting and shoving. This distress is mostly caused by traffic, an inadequate viscosity of bitumen, and/or an insufficient aggregate angularity. At present, the conventional bitumen viscosity of 60/70 (B60/70) has many disadvantages in hot countries like Libya, where road-surface temperatures can reach up to 70â¯Â°C. This paper reports on the use of Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) as a filler substitute to improve the rigidity of asphalt concrete mixes made with B60/70 bitumen and low-quality aggregates. This new mixture increases the pavement's stability and resistance to high temperatures. To establish the effects of OPC on the performance of asphalt mixtures in hot climates, four different percentages of OPC (0%, 2%, 4% and 6%) are used as filler substitutes in three different mixes. The performance of the three mixes are assessed using the Superpave Gyratory Compactor and the Asphalt Pavement Rutting Analyzer. Findings indicate that mixtures containing higher percentages of OPC as a filler are significantly more resistant to rutting. These experimental results show that Portland Cement Filler Asphalts (PCFA) represents a more stable alternative to conventional asphalt that also reduces thickness requirements, because of the higher resulting modulus of rigidity. This is equally important in hot rural areas like those found in Libya, where they have very few quarries and aggregates are very costly to transport.
