Abstract:In order to evaluate the applicability of colored asphalt mixture with anti-rutting agent in heavy-duty traffic roads, the pavement performances of colored asphalt mixture with anti-rutting agent (the content 0%, 0.3%, 0.5% and 0.7%, respectively) are tested. The influence of anti-rutting agent content on its pavement performance is analyzed, and the commonly used asphalt mixtures specially for heavy-duty traffic are compared. The results show that the addition of anti-rutting agent can significantly improve the high-temperature stability of colored asphalt mixtures, and the water stability has also been improved to a certain extent, but the low-temperature crack resistance has been reduced to a certain extent. The optimum content of anti-rutting agent in colored asphalt mixture is 0.5 %. When the content of anti-rutting agent is optimal, the pavement performance of colored asphalt mixture reaches the level of asphalt mixture specially for heavy-duty traffic, which can be attempted to apply in the heavy-duty traffic roads.
