Prediction of the Mechanical Properties of Aged Asphalt Mixes from FTIR Measurements
Setting a method to evaluate the mechanical properties of an aged asphalt mix using a rapid chemical measurement from small samples, would be of high interest at different steps of a road structure life cycle: at the design step, to optimise the estimates of the service lifetime usually based on the properties of unaged materials; during the service life, to update the residual lifetime expectation of an existing structure according to the actual properties of the in situ aged materials; and at the end of the service life or for maintenance management, to evaluate the recyclability of the materials of the structure. This study was carried out aiming at comparing results from Fourier Transform InfraRed and Dynamic Shear Rheometer tests. Experimental data came from an international round robin test, organised by the RILEM TC ATB, designed to set an ageing protocol on loose bituminous mixtures. The evolutions of the carbonyl index (ICO) calculated from the FTIR spectra are compared to the evolutions of the parameters of a modified Huet Rheological Model (1S2P1D) fitted on the experimental linear viscoelastic data measured on the recovered binder. A significant relationship is observed suggesting that chemical and rheological properties could be correlated. Based on this observation, a method is proposed for predicting the G* values of a binder aged at a given ΔICO level. Subsequently, this method could be used to predict the complex modulus E* of a given mix from the shear modulus G* of the binder using existing binder/mix transfer models.
