Asphalt Road Pavements to Address Climate Change Challenges—An Overview

Autor: Arminda Almeida, Luis Picado Santos

Publikováno v: Applied Sciences. 12:12515

Climate change is already happening. It is one of the significant challenges that the planet has to face. Asphalt road pavements cover a large area of the Earth’s surface; consequently, climate change challenges can significantly affect their perfo

Publikováno v: Applied Sciences; Volume 12; Issue 4; Pages: 2146

The use of plastic waste as a bitumen extender added throughout the manufacturing process of asphalt concrete contributes value to that type of waste. Moreover, this type of polymer can improve some mechanical properties of asphalt concrete without w

The behaviour of unbound granular materials (UGM) on pavement granular layers, in spite of several studies already performed on this matter, is not enough characterized, especially under Portuguese conditions due to reasons connected to the heterogen
