Summary Report on Low Temperature and Thermal Fatigue Cracking
The report presents a literature review of the low temperature and thermal fatigue cracking of asphalt concrete pavements. The report identifies procedures that can be used as a basis for the development of performance-related tests. The report reflects the results of the literature review and an analysis of responses to a survey questionnaire sent to state departments of transportation. Eight test systems and methods are described and documented, and the report critically evaluates them with respect to a mechanistic approach to low temperature and thermal fatigue cracking. From these eight, four were selected for further evaluation: a direct tension constant-rate-of-extension test; a thermal stress restrained specimen test; a C*-line integral fracture mechanics (crack propagation rate) test; and a coefficient of thermal expansion and contraction test.
