Abstract:

The thesis deals with the matter of usage of special asphalt binders for production of asphalt mixtures containing recycled materials in asphalt plant. For comparison analysis of characteristics of special binder used in roads is necessary to compose different mixtures of asphalt – one with binder containing R-materials, and another benchmark mixture with binder used in common mixtures without recycled materials. Investigation of features of mixtures with different binders is carried out by selected performance tests of asphalt mixtures. Evaluation and comparison of the results is described in the final section of the thesis.

Keywords:

Asphalt mixtures, binders, test samples, stiffness module, fatigue characteristics, resistance against creation of permanent deformations, low-temperature properties, performance tests, production of asphalt mixtures, recommendations for asphalt mixtures
