INVESTIGATION ON HIGH AND LOW TEMPERATURE BEHAVIOR OF ASPHALT BY STATIC AND DYNAMIC CREEP TESTS

Investigations on the deformation behavior of a bitumen B 65 and two polymer modified bitumens were carried out at extreme temperatures. The low temperature behavior was derived from static creep tests with bituminous mortars at temperatures between -10 and -40 degrees C. The resistance against deformation at high temperatures was determined by dynamic loading creep tests with Marshall specimens at 50 and 60 degrees C. The results allowed a clear distinction of the three bitumens and showed the effects of the modification with polymers. This difference was not revealed by the standard test methods.
