History and Future Challenges of Gyratory Compaction: 1939 to 2001

Abstract: History is a dynamic tapestry of facts and perceptions, dates and personalities. This work attempts to capture the events and rationale of those who contributed significantly to the use of gyratory compaction in the design and field management of hot-mix asphalt and discusses the challenges ahead. Throughout the evolution of asphalt mix design several different types of laboratory compaction devices have been developed. In general, the goal of these laboratory devices is to fabricate a specimen for volumetric … Show more

“…Many different reasons could underlay the favorable use of gyratory compactors for soil compaction in the laboratory. First of all, these instruments are more accurate than impact hammers, have greater effectiveness against impact hammers, and its easier to repeat the testing conditions with gyratory compactors [13,14,15]. Flexible pavement systems experience moving traffic loads.…”
