Abstract :
Combined with the application of granite asphalt mixtures in the pavement project along the Ma-Wu Expressway. In this paper, the amount of 20%, 40%, 60%, 80% cement was in equivalent replacement of common filler. The effects of cement on low-temperature property of granite asphalt mixtures were investigated by indirect tensile strength and three-point bend test, obtained the variation of cement with different admixture amounts influence on granite asphalt mixtures, than the optimum mix amount has been found. Experimental results showed that the cement additive improved the low-temperature property and the optimum mix amount of cement was 40%∼60%, which possesses guiding significance for ensuring bituminous pavement project quality.
