AAPTP 06-01 Research Objectives
• Develop a practical guide identifying
means to prevent and mitigate cracking
caused by environmental effects.
• Develop one or more test procedures that
could be used by a pavement manager to
determine when preventative maintenance
is needed to prevent the development of
cracking (specifically block cracking).

TPF-5(153) Research Objectives
• Primary Objective
– to develop and validate technology that can
be used by highway agencies to determine
the proper timing of preventive maintenance
in order to mitigate damage caused by
asphalt aging
![Page 7: Aging of Asphalt - Amazon Web Servicespavementvideo.s3.amazonaws.com/2012_Pavement_National/PDF...AAPTP 06-01 Research Objectives • Develop a practical guide identifying means to](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022040806/5e4698153fca990f2111b7bb/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
TPF-5(153) Research Objectives
• Primary Objective
• Help highway agencies define a pavement
preservation strategy which optimizes life-
cycle cost with primary emphasis on
countering the deleterious effects of asphalt
aging
![Page 8: Aging of Asphalt - Amazon Web Servicespavementvideo.s3.amazonaws.com/2012_Pavement_National/PDF...AAPTP 06-01 Research Objectives • Develop a practical guide identifying means to](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022040806/5e4698153fca990f2111b7bb/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
AAPTP 06-01 Research Question
• As the Airport Manager…
– What test do I run or what calculation can I do
that will tell me when the pavement is
expected to begin showing significant non-
load related distress?

General Concept
• In-service aging leads to oxidation and
loss of flexibility at intermediate and low
temperatures
– Block-cracking
• when environmental (non-load) conditions
create thermal stresses that cause strain in
the asphalt mixture that exceeds the failure
strain
![Page 11: Aging of Asphalt - Amazon Web Servicespavementvideo.s3.amazonaws.com/2012_Pavement_National/PDF...AAPTP 06-01 Research Objectives • Develop a practical guide identifying means to](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022040806/5e4698153fca990f2111b7bb/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
General Concept
• In-service aging leads to oxidation and loss of flexibility at intermediate and low temperatures
– Preventing or mitigating distress
• identify a property of the asphalt binder or mixture that sufficiently correlates with its flexibility
• provide a procedure to monitor when flexibility reaches a state where corrective action is needed
![Page 12: Aging of Asphalt - Amazon Web Servicespavementvideo.s3.amazonaws.com/2012_Pavement_National/PDF...AAPTP 06-01 Research Objectives • Develop a practical guide identifying means to](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022040806/5e4698153fca990f2111b7bb/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Asphalt Durability
• A durable asphalt:
– has physical properties necessary for desired
initial product performance, and
– is resistant to change in physical properties
during long-term, in-use environmental aging

Asphalt Oxidation
• Physical Changes – Ductility
– Block cracking severity related to ductility at
60ºF (15ºC) – Kandhal (1977)
• “Low-Temperature Ductility in Relation to
Pavement Performance”, ASTM STP 628, 1977
– Loss of surface fines as ductility → 10 cm
– Surface cracking when ductility → 5 cm
– Serious surface cracking when ductility < 3 cm

Recent Aging Research
• Texas A&M Research (Glover, et.al.)
– 2005
– “Development of a New Method for Assessing Asphalt Binder Durability with Field Evaluation”
– Build on work by Kandhal suggesting block cracking and raveling is related to low binder ductility after aging
– Identified rheological parameter related to ductility

Implementation?
• Pavement Manager
– Coordinate the extraction and recovery of
asphalt binder from the mixture and determine
the value of G’/(η’/G’) and/or ΔTc at the time of
pavement construction to establish baseline
values

Implementation?
• Pavement Manager
– Periodically coordinate the removal of one or
more cores and have a testing lab perform a
solvent extraction and recovery to obtain aged
asphalt binder
• Test to determine values of G′/(η′/G′) and/or ΔTc at
an aged state
• As the values approach a critical state, consider
that the risk of cracking is increased and
preventative action should be taken

Summary
• Aging is influenced by multiple factors
– Environment
– Traffic
– Air voids (Density)
– Asphalt Binder
– Aggregate

Summary
• Effects of Aging
– Increase stiffness
– Decrease flexibility
– Surface Cracking
![Page 53: Aging of Asphalt - Amazon Web Servicespavementvideo.s3.amazonaws.com/2012_Pavement_National/PDF...AAPTP 06-01 Research Objectives • Develop a practical guide identifying means to](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022040806/5e4698153fca990f2111b7bb/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
Summary
• Goal
– Identify proper durability parameter
– Monitor parameter with time
– Model expected life to loss of durability and
onset of cracking
– Apply preservation treatment to maintain
durability
