| Description |
Different experimental sections have been made in France, in the 1970s, without
significant results. The approach until then seemed too empiric to achieve a
reliable solution which corresponds to a necessity (rain doubles the risk of
accident on dense asphalt concrete pavement). Since 1982, the laboratory
studies implemented in France have shown clearly the advantages of Asphalt
Rubber Binder in porous mixes; A-R gives the following criteria of durability:
- constant draining properties, - good behavior under heavy trucks traffic
(fatigue and rutting resistance), - shearing stress resistance, - insensibility
to bad weather. Works made in France for 5 years confirm the excellent
durability of PARC |
