The Prediction Of Mix Design Properties For Dense Graded Bituminous Mixtures, Robert Ernest Weeks Jan 1965

The Prediction Of Mix Design Properties For Dense Graded Bituminous Mixtures, Robert Ernest Weeks

Masters Theses

"The purpose of this investigation was to ascertain the feasibility of interpolating values of the physical properties of a dense graded bituminous mix between known values. Also the effects of limestone mineral filler on the properties of a dense graded mix are evaluated. The variables in this study were mineral filler and asphalt cement. Control mixes were established at 2, 6 and 10 percent mineral filler and experimental mixes were prepared at 4 and 8 percent filler. The aggregate consisted of limestone and was mixed with an asphalt cement of 85-100 grade penetration. Al mixes were tested by the Marshall …
