Abstract:Taking three kinds of pavement materials of SMA, Superpave and AC asphalt concretes commonly used in the areas of Hainan as the object, small accelerating loader is selected to carry out the permanent deformation tests of the different paving materials under the different driving speeds. A new rutting prediction model is obtained. The comparison is carried out with the existing ring road test data. It is found that the influence of vehicle speed must be fully considered in the rutting prediction model. The sufficient vehicle speed data must be added in the original test data used for the regression of the model coefficients. For the different paving materials, after fitting with the revised prediction model, the correlation coefficient R2 between the predicted value and the field measured value can reach 0.947, 0.937and 0.928, respectively. The prediction accuracy of the new model is much higher than that of the previous models not fully considering the vehicle speed.
