Popis: This paper focuses on an optimized research about materials and size of electrode of self-monitoring asphalt concrete. It can be easily observed and analyzed the sensitivity of the test and resistivity fluctuations by studying the changes of output resistivity in different electrode embedded in the self-monitoring asphalt concrete. Based on the above method, we can select the proper electrode for the self-monitoring asphalt concrete. The results indicate that the output resistivity of self-monitoring asphalt concrete have much more fluctuation than which used stainless steel mesh as electrode material when choosing the iron mesh as electrode material. Meanwhile, the results demonstrate that the measured output resistivity of self-monitoring asphalt concrete is the most stable when the electrode size is 40~60% of cross-sectional area.
