The use of asphalt as a cementing agent in pavements is the most common of its applications, however, and the one that will be consid ered here.Asphalt products are used to produce flexibl e pavements for highways and airports. The term “fl exible” is used to distinguish these pavements from those made with Portland cement, which are classified as rigid pavements, that is, having beam strength. This distinction is important because it provid es they key to the design approach which must be used for successful flexibl e pavement structures.The flexibl e pavement classification may be further broken d own into high and l ow types, the type usually depending on whether a solid or liquid asphalt product is used. The l ow types of pavement are mad e with the cutback, or emulsion, liquid products and are very widely used throughout this country. Descriptive terminology has been devel oped in various sections of the country to the extent that one pavement type may have several names. However, the general process foll owed in construction is similar for most l ow-type pavements and can be described as one in which the aggregate and the asphalt product are usually applied to the roadbed separately and there mixed or all owed to mix, forming the pavement.The high type of asphalt pavements is made with asphalt cements of some sel ectedpenetration grad e.Fig. ·1 A modern asphalt concrete highway. Should er striping is used as a safely feature.Fig. ·2 Asphalt concrete at the San Francisco International Airport.They are used when high wheel l oads and high volumes of traffic occur and are, therefore, often designed for a particular installation.2 . Theory of asphalt concrete mix designHigh types of flexible pavement are constructed by combining an asphalt cement, often in the penetration grad e of 85 to 100, with aggregates that are usually divided into three groups, based on size. The three groups are coarse aggregates, fine aggregates, and mineral filler. These will be discussed in d etail in later chapter.Each of the constituent parts mentioned has a particular function in the asphalt mixture, and mix proportioning or d esign is the process of ensuring that no function is negl ected. Before these individual functions are examined, however, the criteria for pavement success and failure should be consid ered so that d esign objectives can be established.A successful fl exible pavement must have several particular properties. First, it must be stable, that is to resistant to permanent displacement under l oad. Deformation of an asphalt pavement can occur in three ways, two unsatisfactory and one desirable. Plastic d eformationof a pavement failure and which is to be avoid ed if possible. Compressive deformation of the pavement results in a dimensional change in the pavement, and with this change come a l oss of resiliency and usually a d egree of roughness. This deformation is less serious than the one just described, but it, too, leads to pavement failure. The desirabl e type of deformation is an elastic one, which actually is beneficial to flexibl e pavements and is necessary to their long life.The pavement should be durable and should offer protection to the subgrade. Asphalt cement is not impervious to the effects of weathering, and so the design must minimize weather susceptibility. A durable pavement that does not crack or ravel will probably also protect the roadbed. It must be remembered that fl exible pavements transmit l oads to the subgrad e without significant bridging action, and so a dry firm base is absolutely essential.Rapidly moving vehicl es d epend on the tire-pavement friction factor for control and safety. The texture of the pavement surfaces must be such that an adequate skid resistance is developed or unsafe conditions result. The design procedure should be used to sel ect the asphalt material and aggregates combination which provid es a skid resistant roadway.Design procedures which yield paving mixtures embodying all these properties are not available. Sound pavements are constructed where materials and methods are selected by using time-tested tests and specifications and engineering judgments al ong with a so-call ed design method.The final requirement for any pavement is one of economy. Economy, again, cannot be measured directly, since true economy only begins with construction cost and is not fully determinable until the full useful life of the pavement has been record ed. If, however, the requirements for a stable, durable, and safe pavement are met with a reasonable safety factor, then the best interests of economy have probably been served as well.With these requirements in mind, the functions of the constituent parts can be examined with consideration give to how each part contributes to now-established objectives or requirements. The functions of the aggregates is to carry the l oad imposed on the pavement, and this is accomplished by frictional resistance and interl ocking between the individual pieces of aggregates. The carrying capacity of the asphalt pavement is, then, related to the surface texture (particularly that of the fine aggregate) and the density, or “compactness,”, of the aggregates. Surface texture varies with different aggregates, and while a rough surfacetexture is desired, this may not be available in some l ocalities. Dense mixtures are obtained by using aggregates that are either naturally or artificially “well grad ed”. This means tha t the fine aggregate serves to fill the voids in the coarser aggregates. In addition to affecting density and therefore strength characteristics, the grading also influences workability. When an excess of coarse aggregate is used, the mix becomes harsh and hard to work. When an excess of mineral filler is used, the mixes become gummy and difficult to manage.The asphalt cement in the fl exibl e pavement is used to bind the aggregate particl es together and to waterproof the pavements. Obtaining the proper asphalt content is extremely important and bears a significant influence on all the items marking a successful pavement. A chief objective of all the design methods which have been devel oped is to arrive at the best asphalt content for a particular combination of aggregates.3 . Mix design principl esCertain fundamental principles underlie the design procedures that have been developed. Before these procedures can be properly studied or applied, some consid eration of these principles is necessary.Asphalt pavements are composed of aggregates, asphalt cement, and voids. Consid ering the aggregate alone, all the space between particles is void space. The volume of aggregate voids depends on grading and can vary widely. When the asphalt cement is ad ded, a portion of these aggregate voids is fill ed and a final air-void volume is retained. The retention of thisair-void volume is very important to the characteristics of the mixture. The term air-void volume is used, since these voids are weightless and are usually expressed as a percentage of the total volume of the compacted mixture.An asphalt pavement carries the applied load by particl e friction and interlock. If the particl es are pushed apart for any reason , then the pavement stability is d estroyed. This factor indicates that certainly no more asphalt shoul d be ad ded than the aggregate voids can readily hold. However ,asphalt cement is susceptible to volume change and the pavement is subject to further compaction under use. If the pavement has no air voids when placed, or if it loses them under traffic, then the expanding asphalt will overfl ow in a condition known as bleeding. The l oss of asphalt cement through bl eeding weakens the pavement and also reduces surface friction, making the roadway hazard ous.Fig. ·3 Cross section of an asphalt concrete pavement showing the aggregate framework bound together by asphalt cement.The need for a minimum air-void volume (usually 2 or 3 per cent ) has been established. In addition, a maximum air-void volume of 5 to 7 per cent shoul d not be exceed. An excess of air voids promotes raveling of the pavement and also permits water to enter and speed up the deteriorating processes. Also, in the presence of excess air the asphalt cement hard ens and ages with an accompanying loss of durability and resiliency.The air-void volume of the mix is determined by the d egree of compaction as well as by the asphalt content. For a given asphalt content, a lightly compacted mix will have a large voids volume and a l ower d ensity and a greater strength will result. In the laboratory, the compaction is controlled by using a specified hammer and regulating the number of bl ows and the energy per blow. In the fiel d, the compaction and the air voids are more difficult to control and tests must be made no specimens taken from the compacted pavement to cheek on the d egree of compaction being obtained. Traffic further compact the pavement, andall owance must be mad e for this in the design. A systematic checking of the pavement over an extend ed period is needed to given factual information for a particular mix. A change in density of several per cent is not unusual, however.Asphalt content has been discussed in connection with various facets of the ix design problem. It is a very important factor in the mix design and has a bearing an all the characteristics ld a successful pavement: stability, skid resistance, durability, and economy. As has been mentioned, the various design procedures are intended to provid e a means for selecting the asphalt content . These tests will be consid ered in detail in a future chapter ,butthe relationship between asphalt content and the measurable properties of stability, unit weight, and air voids will be discussed here.Fig.4 Variations in stability, unit weight, and air-void content with asphalt cement content.If the gradation and type of aggregate, the degree of compaction, and the type of asphalt cement are controll ed, then the strength varies in a predictable manner. The strength will increase up to some optimum asphalt content and then decrease with further additions. The pattern of strength variation will be different when the other mix factors are changed, and so only a typical pattern can be predicted prior to actual testing.Unit weight varies in the same manner as strength when all other variabl e are controll ed. It will reach some peak value at an asphalt content near that determined from the strength curve and then fall off with further additions.As already mentioned, the air-void volume will vary with asphalt content. However, the manner of variation is different in that increased asphalt content will d ecrease air-void volume to some minimum value which is approached asymptotically. With still greater additions of asphalt material the particles of aggregate are only pushed apart and no change occurs in air-void volume.In summary, certain principles involving aggregate gradation, air-void volume, asphalt content, and compaction mist be understood before proceeding to actual mix d esign. The proper design based on these principl es will result in sound pavements. If these principles are overl ooked, the pavement may fail by one or more of the recognized modes of failure: shoving, rutting, corrugating, becoming slick when the max is too ‘rich’; raveling, cracking,having low durability when the mix is too ‘l ean’.It should be again emphasized that the strength of flexible is, more accurately, a stabilityand d oes not indicate any ability to bridge weak points in the subgrade by beam strength. No asphalt mixture can be successful unless it rests on top of a properly designed and constructed base structure. This fact, that the surface is no better than the base, must be continually in the minds of those concerned with any aspect of fl exible pavement work.译文：沥青混合料的应用、理论和原则1、应用沥青材料如今在建筑行业广泛使用。
