چکیده
|
Water damage is a vital factor affecting the durability of gap-graded asphalt. there is an urgent need for a pragmatic and reasonable test to evaluate this parameter. previous research has proposed that tensile strength ratio is a promising test for this application. therefore,the aim of this paper is to evaluate the effect of moisture damage on gap-graded asphalt mixture incorporating electric arc furnace (eaf) steel slag and copper mine tailings (cmt). four material mixtures of eight mix designs were investigated. each mix was conditioned in water for 24-hour and 48-hour before testing. the study adopted retained strength index (rsi),durability index (di) and tensile strength ratio (tsr) to describe the durability of gap-graded asphalt incorporating eaf steel slag and copper mine tailings. the results reveal that all the mixes fulfill the prescribed criteria. also,there is a strong correlation between the retained strength index and the durability index with a strong coefficient of determination,r 2 of 0.9543. the results of the study further showed that gap-graded asphalt mixture incorporating eaf steel slag and copper mine tailings did not seem to pose any problem. © 2016 penerbit utm press. all rights reserved.
