INVESTIGATION AND EXAMINATION CONCERNING FUNCTION RECOVERY OF DRAINAGE ASPHALT PAVEMENT

Drainage asphalt pavement functions excellently in providing enhanced safety for driving in rain and for traffic noise suppression. The amount of drainage asphalt pavement used has increased remarkably since 1989. However, drainage asphalt pavement tends to collapse and clog its voids after construction. The main subject of focus on the technology has been how to recover its deteriorated functions and maintain its initial functions for long periods of time. We have confirmed that the research and development of modified asphalt with high viscosity can pave the way for the possible deterrence of clogging of voids in the paving mixture. We have conducted research on the recovery function of drainage asphalt pavement by means of physical and chemical processes. Based on the study results, we have developed a heavy duty recovery function device and conducted in-site test runs on roadways. In this trial, we could confirm the effective performance of the device in recovery of deteriorated functions of clogged drainage asphalt pavement. This paper reports on the basic testing for the development of a function recovery device and on performance trials at sites. (a) For the covering entry of this conference, please see IRRD 895316.
