Abstract:The current research on the anti-skid performance of steel slag asphalt mixture mainly focuses on laboratory test and macroscopic mechanical performance analysis. Few researchers have conducted the test road tests to explore the mechanism of anti-skid performance improvement from a microscopic perspective. To address these issues, the steel slag asphalt mixture is designed, and a control group asphalt mixture using basalt aggregate is set up. Then, a test road is paved, and the side-way force coefficient (SFC) test, the texture depth test, the pendulum value test are conducted on the road. Subsequently, the anti-skid performance test data of steel slag asphalt mixture pavement and basalt asphalt mixture pavement are analyzed. Finally, the canning electron microscopy tests are conducted on steel slag and basalt aggregates to explain the mechanism by which steel slag enhances the skid resistance of asphalt mixtures from a microscopic perspective. The conclusion shows that the anti-skid performance of steel slag asphalt mixture pavement is better than that of basalt asphalt mixture pavement. Compared with basalt aggregates, the surface of steel slag aggregates can absorb more asphalt, and the adhesion between aggregates and asphalt is stronger.
