2020年7月17日 · With the success of the IDEAL CT testing standard, which is rapidly becoming the cracking test of choice for Balanced Mix Design, Dr. Fujie Zhou of Texas A&M University …

pre-conditioned at a high test temperature. Specimens are loaded monotonically at 50 mm/min using a shear fixture, which loads the specimen at 3 points (one upper and two lower …

2024年7月19日 · The balanced mix design (BMD) approach has emphasized the implementation of simple performance tests such as the indirect tensile asphalt cracking test (IDEAL-CT) and …

The IDEAL-RT test is a rutting test performed at relatively high temperatures on specimens with similar dimensions and loading rates. Figure 1 shows typical IDEAL-CR and IDEAL-RT test …

2022年10月18日 · The test method describes the determination of the rutting tolerance index, RT Index, and other parameters determined from the load-displacement curve. These parameters …

2023年10月12日 · The Ideal shear rutting test (IDEAL RT) was explored as part of this study in the context of surrogate tests. Test specimen requirements and testing conditions are identical …

2020年11月20日 · The ideal cracking test (IDEAL-CT) and the ideal rutting test (IDEAL-RT) are simple, practical and performance-related tests, and both of the tests are good candidates for …

The objective of this project is to evaluate published literature regarding the efficacy of IDEAL-CT and IDEAL-RT test methods to characterize the performance of asphalt mixtures in the field.

2023年9月28日 · IDEAL-RT followed by HT-IDT are the most suitable potential surrogate simple performance tests for HWT to screen better and worse rutting performance.

the indirect tensile at high temperature (IDT-HT) test, rapid rutting (RR) test, and Marshall stability and flow (MS) test, identified from the literature, were evaluated using 17 plant-produced …
