| Description |
Ground
tire rubber is investigated as an additive in asphalt pavement
construction. A blend of ground tire rubber and asphalt cement
at elevated temperatures is called "asphalt-rubber".
The blend consists of 18 to 26 percent ground tire rubber by
total weight of the blend. Other systems in which rubber is considered
an elastic aggregate were also studied. These mixtures are not
considered asphalt-rubber because rubber is not blended with
the asphalt cement prior to mixing with mineral aggregates. These
materials are called "asphalt concrete rubber-filled"
for dense graded mixes, and "friction course rubber-filled"
for open graded mixes. |
