Abstract

Asphalt paving composites normally contain about 6 percent of a bituminous hydrocarbon binder and the remainder an inorganic aggregate comprising particles of sand, crushed rock, limestone or other minerals which may be indigenous to a particular region. Although it is recognized that prolonged exposure of asphalt pavements to moisture can cause a pronounced loss of strength and accelerate the deterioration of road surfaces, there does not appear to be any generally acceptable solution to the problem.1, 2
