Application of High-elastic Modified Asphalt in Steel Bridge Pavement

To　cope　with　the　fatigue　cracking　occurred　to　the　asphalt　mixture　on　steel　deck　avement,it　is　put　forward　that　the　fatigue　life　of　asphalt　mixture　can　be　improved　by　reducing　the　ailure　energy　of　each　hysteresis　loop　of　asphalt　mixture　according　to　the　cumulative　dissipated　energy　and　hysteresis　loop　theory　in　the　principle　of　viscoelasticity　for　asphalt　mixture　Based　on　this　principle,a　kind　of　modified　asphalt　with　high　elasticity　was　developed,and　its　high　and　low　temperature　performances　and　fatigue　performances　were　also　tested　The　result　shows　that　(1)　low　temperature　deformability　of　the　high?elastic　modified　asphalt　mixture　has　remarkably　improved　and　low　temperature　bending　strain　of　girder　at　-10　℃　is　above　10　000　με;　(2)　the　fatigue　life　of　modified　asphalt　mixture　with　high　elasticity　has　greatly　improved　by　4?point　bending　beam　test　compared　with　common　modified　asphalt　mixture　The　fatigue　life　at　1　000　με　deformability　is　about　19　million　times　which　is　about　20　times　longer　than　that　of　ordinary　asphalt　mixture
