| Popis: | In pavement design and analysis processes among mechanistic-empirical pavement design method, defining the Dynamic Elasticity Modulus(E*) of asphalt layers are very important. In analysis processes, predicting the deteriorations and E* requires some special devices and a lot of time. To simplify this process different prediction models and different approaches have been developed to predict E*. These prediction approaches prepared with huge amount of input data gathered both from construction site and laboratory tests to predict the binder and the volumetric properties of the HMA. In this paper four prediction equations have been applied to predict E* and compared the results with each other. The infrastructure model has chosen as an existing highway section with known HMA material properties. The analyses have done for five different temperatures (10⁰F, 40⁰F, 70⁰F, 100⁰F and 130⁰F) by using two different frequency values (4Hz and 10 Hz). The aim of this research study is doing a comparative assessment of four widely used E* prediction models. Results have shown a large bias between compared E*prediction results due to temperature, frequency, and material properties. Higher Frequency and newest models have shown higher E* values. |
