  • Abstract:
    Currently, the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (LADOTD) ; requires ductility tests at 25°C according to AASHTO T51 for emulsions and two ; other tests, namely force ductility ratio at 4°C and elastic recovery at 10°C ; according to AASHTO T300 and AASHTO T301, respectively, for polymer modified ; emulsions. The fact that polymer modified asphalt is strain dependent creates ; questions regarding purchase specifications based on constant strain controlled ; tests. In developing performance grade (PG) specifications for emulsions, one of the ; tests proposed in several reports is the multiple stress creep recovery (MSCR) test ; according to ASTM D7405. This test determines percent elastic recovery and non-recoverable creep compliance and measures the damage behavior in the linear and ; nonlinear range. Compared with the current binder protocol, a repeated creep tests ; protocol (or some other method that varies the frequency and strain and measures ; the accumulated permanent strain of the binder) represents an improvement in the ; theoretical and practical concepts that will better rate the binder properties related ; to performance.
