IRJET- Review on Performance Study on Mastic Asphalt at Rotary Section (original) (raw)

Development of road network is major pillar of the economic growth. Flexible pavements are being constructed on a very high volume in the India. As a developing nation and the second highest populated country in the world, there is need of high-volume duty roads. At certain critical locations like rotary, toll plaza and bridge deck slab etc. use of mastic asphalt is widely adopted. The performance of mastic asphalt as substitute to normal bituminous mixes at critical location such as rotary, bus stops and intersections need to be studied. This shall help in decision making with respect to choice of surface course. This paper presents a critical review on the use of the mastic asphalt as a wearing surface which possibly has significantly higher resistance against rutting and other deteriorations. It also has higher stiffness of the matrix, resistance against stripping and aging behaviour of material.
