A standard grading system is used to evaluate the properties and expected performance of an asphalt binder. The most common grading system used in the US today is the performance grading (PG) system. This system prescribes an operational temperature range within which the binder is expected to perform satisfactorily without resulting in rutting, fatigue cracking or thermal cracking as a distress. On the low-temperature and thermal cracking end, this system uses both a metric related to stiffness and rate of relaxation (m-value) to establish a low temperature grade for a given asphalt binder. Although these parameters provide some information on the rate of relaxation and overall rigidity of the asphalt binder they don’t include an evaluation of the tensile strength of the asphalt binder. The tensile strength of the binder can furnish critical information about its resistance to cracking including thermal cracking. The asphalt industry has become particularly interested in the impact of recycled asphalt pavement (RAP) and additives such as rejuvenators on the behavior and performance of the material. The goal of this study was to evaluate the tensile strength characteristics of asphalt binders and composites in addition to their stiffness characteristics. The study was conducted in three parts: (1) the evaluation of tensile strength of asphalt binders with similar performance grades, (2) the evaluation of tensile strength of asphalt binders as a function of the amount of recycled asphalt binder added to the virgin binder, and (3) the influence of recycled asphalt and rejuvenators on the stiffness and tensile strength of asphalt mortars. In addition to these three objectives, this study also developed simplified methods to prepare and evaluate the tensile strength of asphalt binders and mortars as a material characterization tool to screen or evaluate the efficacy of RAP, rejuvenators, and other additives. Results show that similarly graded binders have a significant variability both in terms of their stiffness and strength and that rejuvenators can be used with RAP to achieve a balance of stiffness and strength.

Asphalt mixtures or asphalt concrete are used to pave about 93% of about 2.6 million miles paved roads and highways in the US. Asphalt concrete is a composite of aggregates and asphalt binder; asphalt binder works as a glue to bind the aggregate particles. The mechanical response of the asphalt binder is dependent on the time/rate of loading, temperature and age. An asphalt concrete mixture inherits most of these characteristics from the asphalt binder. Also the asphalt binder plays a critical role in providing the asphalt concrete the ability to resist tensile stresses and relaxing thermally induced stresses that can lead to fatigue and low temperature cracking, respectively. Hence, it is very important (but not sufficient) to ensure that asphalt binders used in the production of asphalt concrete are inherently resistant to cracking, rutting and other distresses that a pavement may undergo. Current binder specification (AASHTO M-320) to evaluate its fatigue cracking is based on the stiffness of the binder and not on its tensile strength. Also, measurements following current specifications are made on test specimens subjected to a uniaxial mode of loading that does not produce the same stress state in the binder as in the case of asphalt concrete. Another challenge in being able to produce binders with inherently superior performing characteristics is the fact that the asphalt binders produced in a refinery do not have a consistent chemical composition. The chemical composition of asphalt binder depends on the source and refining process of crude oil. There is a need to better quantify the tensile strength of asphalt binder and understand the relationship between the chemical composition of asphalt binders and its mechanical properties. The knowledge from this study can be used to engineer asphalt binders that have superior performance characteristics. The objective of this research was to quantify the tensile strength of asphalt binder, develop a metric for the tensile strength and identify the relationship between chemical composition and mechanical properties of asphalt binder. Laboratory tests were performed on binders of different grades using a poker chip geometry to simulate confined state by varying the film thickness, rate of loading and modes of loading. The chemical properties of asphalt binder were studied based on SARA fractionation. The findings from this research showed that the modified correspondence principles can unify and explain the rate and mode dependency of asphalt binder. This study also quantified the relationship between chemical composition, and rheological and mechanical properties of asphalt binder. Finally, a composite model was developed based on the individual properties of chemical fractions which could predict the dynamic modulus of the asphaltenes doped and resins doped binder.

The asphalt binder is an essential component of asphaltic mixtures. The performance of an asphaltic mixture is directly related to mechanical characteristics of the binder. With the development of new material characterization methods for both asphalt binder and asphaltic mixture, there is a need to re-evaluate the relationship between the properties of binders and asphaltic mixtures such that a proper understanding and selection of an asphalt binder can be made to improve the performance of an asphaltic mixture. In this study, the effects of asphalt binder properties on asphaltic mixtures at intermediate temperatures were evaluated based on recent developments on material characterization methods for both binder and asphaltic mixture. Five asphalt binders and five asphalt mixtures containing these binders with one aggregate were tested. Four of the binders were based on a modification of a base binder with different techniques. Complex shear modulus and monotonic constant shear-rate tests were conducted on asphalt binders, whereas dynamic modulus and indirect tensile strength tests were conducted on the mixtures. The effects of modification techniques on the properties of asphalt binders and the relationships between the properties of binders and asphaltic mixtures were evaluated in this study.

A comprehensive laboratory testing program was conducted in this research project to examine the blending between reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP)/recycled asphalt shingles (RAS) and virgin asphalt binders and to evaluate the factors that may affect fatigue and low-temperature cracking as well as moisture-induced damage in asphalt mixtures prepared using these materials. This project included two parts: a binder study and a mixture study. In the binder study, atomic force microscopy (AFM) was utilized to characterize the micromechanical properties of the interfacial zone that develops between the RAP/RAS binders and the virgin asphalt binders. Three virgin asphalt binders with different performance grades (PG 58-28, PG 64-28, and PG 64-22), three RAP sources, as well as manufacturing waste and tear-off RAS were used in this project. A new sample-preparation procedure was developed to simulate the blending between the RAS/RAP and the virgin asphalt binders that occurs during asphalt mixture production. The micro-structure, stiffness and the adhesive properties along the blending zone were evaluated for different combinations of RAP/RAS binders and virgin binders. In the mixture study, several asphalt mixtures were used to evaluate the effect of the incorporation of RAP and/or RAS on the mix performance, including a control mixture (no RAP or RAS), a mixture containing 30% RAP, a mixture containing 5% tear-off RAS, and a mixture containing 20% RAP and 3% tear-off RAS. All mixtures were designed to meet ODOT specifications for Item 442 (Superpave) Type A for heavy traffic intermediate course asphalt mixes. The resistance of the asphalt mixtures to fatigue cracking was evaluated using the semi-circular bend (SCB) and the indirect tensile strength (IDT) tests. The SCB test was performed using the Illinois Method and the Louisiana Method. In addition the potential for low-temperature cracking was evaluated using the asphalt concrete cracking device (ACCD), and the susceptibility of the asphalt mixtures to moisture-induced damage was evaluated using the AASHTO T 283 (modified Lottman) test. The AFM test results indicated that blending occurred to a varying degree between the RAP binders and the virgin binders for all RAP-virgin binder combinations. The average modulus of the blending zone depended on the properties of the RAP and the virgin binders. For all binders, a reduction in the adhesive bonding energy was also observed in the blending zone due to the presence of RAP. However, the adhesive properties of the blending zone were significantly higher than those in the RAP binders. Statistical analysis also indicated that the stiffness of the interface blending zone is affected by the properties of the RAP and virgin asphalt binders, while the adhesive properties of the interface blending zone is primarily affected by those of virgin binder used. A linear regression model was developed to predict the modulus and adhesive bonding energy of the blending zone in terms of RAP and virgin binder properties. The validation of the regression models suggested that these models can serve as a viable tool in selecting the virgin binder to be used in a RAP mixture based on the properties of the RAP binder. Finally, the AFM imaging and force spectroscopy experiments revealed very limited to no blending between manufacturing waste or tear-off RAS materials and the virgin binders considered. The asphalt mixture test results also showed that the use of tear-off RAS in intermediate asphalt mixes significantly reduced their resistance to low-temperature and fatigue cracking as well as moisture damage, which can be attributed to the limited blending observed in the AFM experiments between the RAS and the virgin asphalt binders.
