Long-Term Performance Evaluation of Polymer-Modified Asphalt Concrete Pavements
Following the five-year study performed to investigate the behavior of binders and asphalt mixtures containing polymer modifiers, it was determined that an insufficient amount of time had elapsed to allow any determinations to be made based upon the special field test sections. The study reported herein was to extend that initial time and to study in depth those special test sections, using visual observations coupled with resulting tests performed on samples extracted from the sections and comparisons with the original data developed in the original research. The research includes laboratory testing of field samples, determining the aging effect on the control and modified binders and corresponding effect on the mixtures, and visual evaluations. Retained samples of the original asphalts were also evaluated for potential performance as determined by the performance-based asphalt binder specification developed by the Strategic Highway Research Program. Four hot mix pavement field projects were constructed in the Tyler, Lufkin, San Antonio, and Childress Districts (10, 11, 15, and 25, respectively), and two seal coat projects were placed in the Odessa and Bryan Districts (6 and 17).
