In recent years, using rejuvenator sealer materials (RSMs) to recover the performance of aged asphalt on the pavement is becoming more and more popular. In this paper, four different RSMs were made and applied to rejuvenate the aged asphalt which experienced a PAV 20H process. Then the dynamic rheological characteristics of different binders were tested by the dynamic shear rheometer (DSR).The results indicated that the four RSM can recover the stress relaxation and fatigue factor of aged asphalt. But the rutting parameter decreased with the introduction of four RSMs.
Rejuvenating seal, widely used due to its economic benefits and convenience, is one of the preventive maintenance methods. The rejuvenating seal materials (RSM) work on the surface course of asphalt pavement. This paper described the effects of RSM on the physical properties and rheological properties of aged SBS modified asphalt (ASMA). Two RSM, R and C, were involved in this research. The dosage of each RSM was 2%, 4%, 6%, 8%, and 10% of ASMA by weight. Physical properties, including softening point, penetration and ductility, were tested. Rheological properties were carried out by means of dynamic shear rheometer (DSR). Results show that RSMs, R and C, have improved the low-temperature performance and fatigue resistance. R has more positive effect on low-temperature performance and fatigue resistance of ASMA compared to values of C.
Prestressed concrete continuous rigid frame bridge is widely used in bridge engineering. Its closure is one of very important working procedure in the bridge construction. In this paper, taking Liangjiang Great Bridge in Xinxu Highway as an example, the methods for determining the Jacking force and displacement are discussed. The implementation of the process and construction technology of closure jacking scheme is introduced in detail. Through the finite element simulation, the stress state of on the structural pusher is analyzed. And the maximum stress of the pier bottom and the displacement of the pier top are obtained. They can verify the feasibility of the scheme. Monitoring results from the site construction verify the safety of the scheme. The method has a certain reference value on jacking closure construction for the similar bridge.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
