Title: Trials with DBM roadbase with modified binders:
laying,analysis and initial test results
Publisher: Transport and Road Research Laboratory, 1991
Physical description: 14p., charts
Price: Unpriced
Series: Working Paper: WP/MC/22
Notes - general: In the structural design of bituminous roads there is
a need to evaluate the condition made by modifiers to
dense bitumen macadam roadbases. The laying and
early test results of eight roadbase materials all of
nominally the same composition are described. They
differ in that a variety of modifiers are used, some
polymer modified and some with changes to binder grade
and added filler. Initial creep results indicate
significant differences between the materials; the FWD
results are less conclusive.
