  1. Bituminous Stabilized Materials Guideline Project Initiated By: Gautrans Sabita

  2. G1 base on cemented subbase > 100 mm Asphalt on cemented subbase > 400 mm Cemented Base G1 or G2 base on unbound subbase 300 to 350 mm Cemented base & subbase The Need for Recycling Alternatives 10% 20% 30% 40% 40% 50% 60% Percentage of Designs in TRH4 Catalogue for > 3 msa

  3. Current Guidelines: Main Deficiencies Mix Design • Lack of a suitable curing method • Lack of a suitable Shear Strength test • Lack of criteria to assess durability & flexibility Structural Design • Very Conservative designs • Need to expand knowledge base and incorporate long term field data

  4. Phase 1: Inception Study Structural Design Mix Design Phase 2: Development of Methodologies Structural Design Mix Design Selection Criteria Phase 3: Guideline Compilation & Review Mix Design Guidelines Structural Design Issues Construction Issues Guideline Finalization & Review Project Structure

  5. Tasks for Phase 2 • Mix Design • Adapt triaxial test and classification limits • Develop durability test and classification limits • Standardize specimen preparation, curing, compaction & testing • Structural Design • Expand LTPP database • Develop and calibrate material classification method and pavement design method

  8. Structural Design Method Vision: • Depend on Rational Inputs: • Determined from field tests using a specific procedure • Direct linkage with specifications • Clarity and Transparency • Traceable validation • Implements design fundamentals • Straightforward Implementation • Requires no specialist software • Reliable and Robust

  9. Prediction: How will rut depth, riding quality etc develop over time? Requires simulation Optimization: What can be done to minimize costs at reasonable risk? Sensitivity: What layers/parameters are most critical to prevent premature failure? Life Cycle: How will the pavement fail? How can it be rehabilitated? Reliability: E.g.:Is this design suitable for traffic of 3 to 8 mesa? Design Outputs & Expectations Design Method Outputs Cost, Effort & Experience Needed

  10. System Performance Indicators Shear Potential System Behaviour Indicator ??? Area = Shear Potential “Fingerprint” Development Approach • Range of Traffic Accommodated • Rut situation, RQ situation • Cracking situation • Need for rehabilitation 200 mm BSM 1 130 mm C4 > 200 mm G6 CBR 7-15%

  11. Design Catalogue Structures Failed Condition Warning Condition Good Condition Cumulative Traffic “Fingerprint” Indicator

  12. Conclusion • Structural Design: • Concept finalized March 2007 • Pilot implementation & refinement Mar ’07 to Jan ‘08 • Mix Design Protocols (2007) • Focus on Shear & Durability • Improved criteria and classification limits • Longer term testing and implementation of new tests…(2008+)
