12 Binder Tests and Analysis 12
13 Binder Characterization TEST PROCEDURES Performance Grading AASHTO M 320 AASHTO M 332 (MSCR) AASHTO R 49 (Low Temperature PG) Solubility & Separation AASHTO T 44 ASTM D7173 EQUIPMENT RV DSR RTFO PAV Vacuum Degassing Oven BBR DTT ABCD Torsional bar testing 13
14 Additional DSR Testing Parallel Plate (PP) Geometry Frequency Sweep (Master Curve) Linear Amplitude Sweep (AASHTO TP 101) 4mm test Cylindrical Geometry Viscosity: AASHTO T 316 Asphalt Rubber Testing courtesy of Anton Paar & TA Instruments. 14
15 DSR Testing Alternative: Asphalt Rubber Binder Can it fit within existing PG grading system? DSR Testing Geometry Caltrans, University of California Pavement Research Center, Anton Paar Concentric Cylinder (CC) development testing evaluation looks promising CC test geometry may overcome specimen preparation limitations of PP geometry Draft AASHTO standard in development 15
16 Concentric Cylinder Geometry Advantage GTR modified asphalt can be measured with particle sizes up to 2 mm No trimming problems and filling problems courtesy of Anton Paar No edge effects 16
17 Rheological Properties: Master Curve Rheological parameter: Rheological index (R value) Crossover frequency (ω c ) Glover-Rowe (G-R) These parameters can be interrelated from understanding the relationship between loading time (or frequency) and temperature. 17
18 Extended Aging Do current procedures provide similarly aged material compared to long term aging in the field? Binder: PAV procedure (AASHTO R 28) ETG task force evaluating 40 h PAV Rheological parameters are used to assess Mixture: Oven aging (AASHTO R 30) NCHRP 9-54 is underway to investigate the need for extended aging 18
19 Long Term Conditioning: Master Curve - PG Asphalt Rubber More conditioning causes the master curves to become flatter with R increasing and ωc decreasing. 19
20 Low Temperature BBR Test: Binder New Parameter ( T c ) T c is the difference between the critical low temperature determined by stiffness and relaxation criteria from BBR test T c = S critical temp - m critical temp As an asphalt binder ages, T c value becomes more negative Indicating a loss of relaxation properties Important parameter related to asphalt binder durability Threshold of -5 C being evaluated 20
21 Low Temperature ABCD Test: AASHTO TP 92 Asphalt Binder Cracking Device (ABCD) Cracking Temperature Fracture Stress Low Temperature Grade courtesy of EZ Asphalt Technology. 21
