Determination of thermal conductivity for mastic asphalt by combining previously performed laboratory work and TASEF ; Bestämning av termisk konduktivitet för gjutasfalt genom kombination av tidigare utfört laborationsarbete och TASEF
Mastic asphalt is a material which in Sweden mainly is used as coating for bridges, parking decks, courtyards and terraces. Mastic asphalt is a material built-up by a combination of bitumen (a type of binder), well-graded aggregate (consists of both coarse and fine ballast), filler, sand and sometimes also fine graded macadam. Mastic asphalt is described as a material which in Sweden have potential to expand further. At the same time, it is becoming increasingly popular to construct buildings with solid timber frames. In 2019, the Swedish market for forestry and algaculture was analyzed, after which cross-laminated timber proved to be the construction-material that increases most in popularity. In constructions, mastic asphalt and timber may be combined. In Växjö Sweden for example, a parking deck called Limnologen is constructed with both timber frames and mastic asphalt as pavement. Another example were mastic asphalt and timber have been combined is an enormous car park built in Studen, Switzerland, which have 2142 parking lots. The aim of this master thesis was to develop a temperature-dependent thermal conductivity (for mastic asphalt BPGJA-11) which resulted in temperature development curves that correlated well with the results presented in Ellinor Sanned’s bachelor thesis “Insulation of timber with concrete and cast asphalt”. Sanned performed laboratory work were two different samples of mastic asphalt was tested in a cone calorimeter. The cone calorimeter was set to 51 kW/m2 and Sanned measured the temperature development beneath the mastic asphalt. The thermal conductivities for mastic asphalt were, in this master thesis, developed by using inverse calculation in the finite element program TASEF (Temperature Analysis in Structures Exposed to Fire). To form a reliable setup in TASEF, a sensitivity analysis was initially conducted. Information regarding thermal properties of mastic asphalt at elevated temperatures was in general considered challenging to find. Due to this, assumptions of the parameters ...
