Performance Testing
• Resilient Modulus
• Measure of the mix stiffness related to fatigue and thermal cracking
• Run over four temperatures (0, 5, 10, 22 °C)
![Page 24: Reducing paving Emissions Through the Use of Warm Mix ... · PDF fileTOM BSL* Evotherm HMA 41 % ... • Decreased emissions at HMA plant ...

Performance Testing
Dynamic Modulus
• Measure of stiffness of mixture at high temperature (Rutting)
• At intermediate temperature (Fatigue)
• Repetitive compressive load applied to sample at specified temperatures at various loading frequencies

Performance Testing
• The test data shows that for both the warm mix (WMA) and hot mix (HMA) the resilient modulus and dynamic modulus were statistically the same based on Analysis of Variance

CONCLUSIONS FROM TRIALS
• Mixes designed according to SHRP & Marshall• Reduced fuel consumption • Plant gas and particulate emissions lowered
significantly• Worker fume exposure reduced • Lower temperature mixes workable at paver• Field densities easily within specification• Jointing excellent
![Page 28: Reducing paving Emissions Through the Use of Warm Mix ... · PDF fileTOM BSL* Evotherm HMA 41 % ... • Decreased emissions at HMA plant ...

Summary• Applicable to wide variety of aggregate & binders• Suitable for use with modified binders (SBR, SBS,
EVA to date in lab work)• Excellent moisture resistance observed (90-100%
is routine)• Field work showed no production or construction
difficulties• Thin lifts possible, good feathering and hand work• In-service performance has been excellent to date
