FRM Modified Asphalt Concrete
Overview
- FRM modified asphalt concrete is a product in which the PG is improved by adding modifiers to the normal asphalt concrete.
- PG is classified based on traffic volume into 70-22-34, 76-22-34, and 82-22-34.
- Maximum aggregate sizes of 19mm, 13mm, 10mm, and 8mm for 5cm of paving thickness, and 6mm for 2.5cm of thin-layer paving are recommendable.
- Additive quantity of use by PG (per ton of asphalt concrete)
70-22 : 3kg, 76-22 : 4kg, 82-22 : 8.5kg
Features
- Improvement of asphalt thermo-sensitivity
- Enhancement of adhesive strength
- Increase of resistance to plastic deformation during the summer season
- Prevention of low-temperature cracking during the winter season
- Thin-layer paving is suitable for the repair of aged asphalt pavements and the overlay for the top layer of cement pavements.
- Increase of durability of road pavements
- Applicable for surface layers of bridges (PG82-28)
