Experimental Research on Surface Characteristics of Epoxy Asphalt Concrete Pavement

To evaluate the surface characteristics of epoxy asphalt concrete pavement,the permeability test,dynamic friction test,Cantabro test,Hamburg test,and laser texture scanning test were conducted.Results show that the coefficient of water permeability of epoxy asphalt concrete is zero,the british pendulum number is 83.6,the mass abrasion rate is 12.5%,the mean profile depth is 0.305 mm,and the estimated texture depth is 0.432 mm.Results show that the water is held into steel deck,because the waterproof performance of epoxy asphalt concrete pavement is excellent.The skid resistance is qualified for the design of bridge deck pavements,but skid of a vehicle occurs when the speed of the vehicle is high on rainy days.Raveling happens under high-temperature water and tire contact loading.The smoothness of epoxy asphalt concrete pavement is good.The surface characteristics of epoxy asphalt concrete pavement satisfy design requirement.However,skid and raveling occur under adverse weather conditions.
