The performance of an asphalt pavement is significantly impacted by the properties of the asphalt mixture, pavement structure, and the imposed environmental and traffic loading conditions. In particular, hot mix asphalt (HMA) mixtures are believed to have a critical combination …

Due to the increasing traffic loads and tire pressures, a serious detrimental impact has occurred on flexible pavements in the form of excessive permanent deformation once the critical combination of loading and environmental conditions are reached. This distress, also known as …

Binder is modified by several additives in order to improve its' rheological properties as well as its' performance in asphalt mix. In this study, the used base binder is PG70-22 and this binder is modified by mixing with two co-polymers provided by Dynasol: Solprene-1205® (S120…
