For more than 70 years, "MS-4" has served the asphalt industry as its primary reference manual. This new, expanded edition showcases the advances in asphalt technology, covering such topics as superpave courses, asphalt binder, quality control, and rehabilitation of concrete pavements with HMA.
This synthesis documents the performance tests used in conjunction with volumetric properties for mixtures.
The approach suggested by Ghuzlan and Carpenter (34) considers that only a portion of the dissipated energy is ... RDECa = the average ratio of dissipated energy change at cycle a, comparing to next cycle b; a, b = load cycle a and ...
