Permanent deformation of asphalt concrete modified with waste plastic

Permanent deformation or rutting is one of the most common forms of road pavement distress. It is typically associated with hot weather and heavy trafficking. According to the recent Stern Report, global climate change will have significant effect on temperature, and so improved understanding of how asphalts behave under different temperature conditions will continue to be an important aspect of mixture design and development. This paper compares two methods of assessing permanent deformation of asphalt concrete modified with waste plastic at a range of test temperatures. Analysis found that both methods gave similar ranking of performance and that the mixtures modified with waste plastic had better resistance to permanent deformation over the temperature range evaluated.
