Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement (RAP) is the result of removing old asphalt pavement material. RAP consists of high quality well-graded aggregate coated with asphalt cement. The removal of asphalt concrete is done for reconstruction purposes, resurfacing, or to obtain access to buried utilities. The disposal of RAP represen …
The effect of curing conditions and silica fume replacement on the compressive strength and the initial surface absorption of high performance concrete is reported. The silica fume contents were 5, 10, 15 and 20%, by weight of cement. Four different curing conditions were used: air curing, control curing and two other …
Asphalt pavements form an integral part of any transportation system. The structural capacity of the hot mix asphalt concrete layers depends on many factors including its temperature. Moreover, temperature can be a major contributor to several types of distresses. Therefore, temperature is a significant factor that aff …
