Abstract
The test results provided useful information about the use of studied additives for bituminous mixtures. In details, when selecting a High Modulus Base aggregate gradation, the addition of polymeric additives is proved to improve mechanical performances such as modulus and permanent deformation resistance even when using average quality aggregate and less hard bitumen (more easily available in Southern Italy) than those typically used for these special formulations, with beneficial environmental consequences (saving of high quality, not-renewable resources).
