New Method for Pavement Rutting Prediction

André-Gilles Dumont, Mehdi Ould Henia

In recent years, pavement rutting rate has increased significantly due to constant traffic intensity increment. These solicitations affect the bituminous layers that can quickly attain their permanent deformation limit resistance. This phenomenon can lead ...

A new laboratory methodology for optimization of mixture design of asphalt concrete containing reclaimed asphalt pavement material

André-Gilles Dumont, Sara Bressi

The reduction of virgin bitumen added to asphalt mixtures containing Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement (RAP) is based on the typical assumption that all the aged binder function in the same way as the virgin binder. However, recent studies conducted by the author ...

International Journal of Pavement Engineering

André-Gilles Dumont, Nicolas Bueche, Sara Bressi

This paper evaluates the variability of binder rheology for different ageing levels and the influence of ageing at different testing temperatures. Three different ageing levels were applied on a single type of bitumen with a penetration grade of 70/100.The ...

An advanced methodology for the mix design optimization of hot mix asphalt

André-Gilles Dumont, Sara Bressi

The bitumen quantity to add to asphalt mixtures depends on the surfaces of aggregates and filler to be coated. The formulas currently available in the literature have limitations such as considering all the fillers with the same specific surface or the agg ...

Defining a braking probability to estimate extreme braking forces on road bridges

Katrin Beyer, André-Gilles Dumont, Marc-Antoine Fénart

A probabilistic approach is necessary to estimate the magnitude of the braking force that compares in terms of return period with the vertical traffic loads present in bridge design codes. A data set from a Danish Field Operational Test served as support t ...

A framework for characterizing RAP clustering in asphalt concrete mixtures

André-Gilles Dumont, Sara Bressi, Michel Pittet

Recycled Asphalt Pavement (RAP) is commonly used in asphalt for road rehabilitation or new constructions. Nevertheless, some physical and chemical phenomena that occur during production, laying and compaction of mixtures containing RAP are not yet complete ...
