SHEARING STRENGTH OF ASPHALTIC CONCRETE /IN RUSSIAN/

THE INFLUENCE OF INTERNAL FRICTION AND COHESION ON THE SHEARING STRENGTH VALUE OF ASPHALTIC CONCRETE IS INVESTIGATED. A RELATION IS ESTABLISHED BETWEEN SHEARING STRENGTH AND PRESSURE FOR ASPHALTIC CONCRETE VARYING IN GRANULOMETRIC COMPOSITION. STUDIES SHOW THE EXISTENCE OF RHEOLOGICAL LAWS SUCH AS, VARIATION IN SHEARING STRENGTH AS A FUNCTION OF SHEARING STRESS DURATION IN THE CASE OF DIFFERENT MIX-DESIGNS. IF THE LAWS OF VARIATION IN STRENGTH AS A FUNCTION OF THE ULTIMATE LOAD DURATION ARE TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT, THE ADVANTAGES OF GRANULAR-TYPE MIX-DESIGN ARE CLAERLY SHOWN. SHEARING STRENGTH IS GREATER AND MORE STABLE IF THE SHEARING STRESS DURATION IS SUBJECT TO VARIATIONS. /LCPC/RRL/
