Four Levels

In this study, field collected loose asphalt-aggregate mixtures were used to prepare cylindrical asphalt concrete specimen using a Superpave gyratory compactor and samples were subjected to four levels of aging. Unaged and aged samples were then tested for complex modulus, relaxation modulus, and creep compliance in the laboratory at different temperatures and loading conditions. To determine broadband characteristics, mastercurves of related viscoelastic material functions were determined by applying time-temperature superposition principle. A comparison study showed that increasing levels of aging have significant effect on viscoelastic functions of asphalt concrete. In addition, liquid asphalt binder corresponding to the asphalt-aggregate mixture was tested for complex shear modulus at various levels of aged conditions, using a dynamic shear rheometer. Results showed that even though the binder shear modulus increases significantly with aging, asphalt concrete modulus does not necessarily show similar increment.
