Abstract

Premature failure in asphalt concrete pavement has been the main concern for pavement construction companies and engineers in recent years because of the large rise in traffic volume and loads and the temperature extremes in the summer and winter. The use of modifiers in asphalt concrete mixtures has attracted much attention to increase the performance and lifespan of pavements. As nanotechnology developed, several researchers concentrated on how these materials can help increase pavement serviceability by minimizing rutting and moisture damage. This study evaluates the Hydrated Lime (HL) effect by two methods (wet and dry hydrated lime) on the durability of the warm mix asphalt. The first method, HL, has been supplemented to the asphalt binder with three ratios (0.5%, 1%, and 1.5%) by weight of asphalt (Wet HL). Then, the second method was added via the aggregate weight as a replacement filler using three percentages (1%, 2%, and 3%) (Dry HL). The mechanical qualities, including Marshall Mix design, moisture susceptibility, and permanent deformation, were evaluated through experimental tests. Results showed that the mechanical characteristics and the fineness of the HL particle sizes are positively correlated.
