Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a crack-resistant, high-strength, high-grain size recycled asphalt stabilized crushed stone material, its preparation method, and pavement structure, belonging to the field of recycled asphalt pavement materials for highway engineering. Background Technology
[0002] Asphalt pavement is the main structural form of high-grade highway pavement, generating a significant amount of asphalt pavement solid waste (RAP) annually due to major and medium-scale repairs. To protect the environment and reduce mining, the high-value and resource-based recycling of asphalt pavement materials has become a global focus in recent years. Plant-mixed hot recycling is the most widely used RAP recycling technology, but the RAP content is relatively low, generally not exceeding 30%. Cement-stabilized crushed stone, with its low price and high load-bearing capacity, has been widely used in asphalt pavements as a base structure. However, with recent economic development and the increasing heavy traffic, cement-stabilized crushed stone semi-rigid base asphalt pavement structures are subjected to repeated wheel loads during use. Cement-stabilized crushed stone materials are highly susceptible to micro-cracks, and they are also prone to drying shrinkage and thermal shrinkage cracks. The combined effect of these two factors easily leads to reflective cracking of the pavement, resulting in overall damage to the asphalt pavement.
[0003] To address the common problems of reflective cracking and poor durability in semi-rigid base asphalt pavements of high-grade highways, extensive indoor research has been conducted on asphalt-stabilized large-diameter crushed stone base courses, and related test roads have been paved. As a type of flexible structural layer, asphalt-stabilized large-diameter crushed stone base courses possess strong flexibility and deformation capacity; as a stress-dissipating layer, they can significantly improve the pavement's resistance to reflective cracking. However, this type of large-diameter asphalt-stabilized crushed stone material uses virgin aggregates instead of recycled asphalt, resulting in a higher cost—40% higher than cement-stabilized crushed stone—and therefore its usage is very limited. Secondly, the maximum particle size of asphalt-stabilized crushed stone base courses is generally 25-30mm, resulting in a structural load-bearing capacity that is about 20% lower than that of semi-rigid base courses, making them prone to rutting.
[0004] Given the technical problems existing in the current technology, it has become an urgent technical problem to be solved to develop a high-strength, crack-resistant, high-proportion recycled asphalt stabilized crushed stone material. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The problem the invention aims to solve
[0006] To address the existing technical problems in current technologies, this invention focuses on increasing the content of solid waste materials in plant-mixed hot recycled asphalt pavement. It provides a high-strength, crack-resistant, high-proportion recycled asphalt-stabilized crushed stone material to tackle the issues of easy cracking and damage in semi-rigid base asphalt pavements and the high cost and insufficient load-bearing capacity of traditional asphalt-stabilized crushed stone. This recycled asphalt-stabilized crushed stone material exhibits excellent mechanical and fatigue properties. Compared to cement-stabilized crushed stone materials, it reduces material costs and improves fatigue durability, offering significant advantages in terms of environmental friendliness, economy, and durability. It effectively solves the problems of easy cracking, short service life, and low utilization rate of solid waste materials in existing semi-rigid base asphalt pavements.
[0007] This invention uses large-diameter crushed stone (greater than 30mm and less than 50mm) and selects solid waste materials from asphalt pavement to replace materials with a diameter of less than 25mm to form a dense skeleton structure, thus creating a large-diameter recycled asphalt-stabilized crushed stone material. This improves the pavement structure's resistance to reflective cracking and its structural bearing capacity. It constructs a skeleton interlocking structure with fine aggregate densely filling the large-diameter skeleton's porosity. Through reasonable structural design and construction application, it overcomes the problems of low resource utilization rate of asphalt pavement solid waste, short pavement service life, and high construction energy consumption, providing technical support for low-carbon, high-value recycled pavement structures made from asphalt solid waste.
[0008] The present invention also provides a method for preparing recycled asphalt-stabilized crushed stone material. This preparation method is simple and easy to implement, can make full use of solid waste materials from asphalt pavement, and is suitable for mass production and has wide applications.

[0042] <First Aspect>
[0043] A first aspect of the present invention provides a recycled asphalt-stabilized crushed stone material, comprising: a base material, supplementary asphalt, and a recycling agent; wherein,
[0044] The substrate comprises asphalt pavement solid waste material and large-diameter crushed stone with a particle size greater than 30 mm and less than 50 mm. Based on the total mass of the substrate (100%), the content of the asphalt pavement solid waste material is 68%-82%; the content of the large-diameter crushed stone is 18%-32%; and...
[0045] The solid waste material of the asphalt pavement contains used asphalt, and the content of the recycling agent is 7%-9% of the used asphalt;
[0046] Based on the total mass of the substrate as 100%, the content of the supplementary bitumen is 0.86%-1.44%.
[0047] The recycled asphalt stabilized crushed stone material of the present invention has excellent mechanical properties and stability. It forms a rigid skeleton by using large-diameter crushed stone with a particle size greater than 30mm and less than 50mm, combined with dense filling of solid waste material from asphalt pavement, to construct a skeleton-dense structure, which significantly improves splitting strength and reduces deflection value, and can effectively resist rutting and deformation under heavy traffic.
[0048] Asphalt pavement solid waste materials
[0049] In this invention, based on the total mass of the substrate as 100%, the content of asphalt pavement solid waste material is 68%-82%. The 68%-82% content of asphalt pavement solid waste material in this invention is significantly higher than the content in existing recycled asphalt mixtures. By using a large amount of asphalt pavement solid waste material, a skeleton interlocking structure can be constructed, allowing the asphalt pavement solid waste material to densely fill the large-particle-size skeleton porosity. Compared to cement-stabilized crushed stone materials, material costs are reduced by more than 15%, and fatigue durability is increased by more than 30%. This demonstrates significant advantages in terms of green environmental protection, economy, and durability, effectively solving the problems of easy cracking, short service life, and low utilization rate of asphalt pavement solid waste materials in semi-rigid base asphalt pavements in my country.
[0050] Specifically, this invention selects recycled asphalt stabilized crushed stone materials with a particle size of less than 25mm to replace the original materials with a particle size of less than 25mm to form a dense skeleton structure, thereby preparing large-particle-size recycled asphalt stabilized crushed stone materials, improving the pavement structure's resistance to reflective cracking and structural bearing capacity, constructing a skeleton interlocking structure, and densely filling the large-particle-size skeleton with fine aggregates to reduce void ratio. Through reasonable structural design and construction application, it overcomes industry problems such as low solid waste resource utilization rate of asphalt pavement, short pavement service life, and high construction energy consumption.
[0051] In some specific implementations, the asphalt pavement solid waste material includes asphalt pavement solid waste material with a particle size of less than 8 mm, asphalt pavement solid waste material with a particle size of greater than 8 mm and less than 12 mm, and asphalt pavement solid waste material with a particle size of greater than 12 mm and less than 25 mm. Furthermore, by using asphalt pavement solid waste material with a particle size of less than 8 mm, asphalt pavement solid waste material with a particle size of greater than 8 mm and less than 12 mm, and asphalt pavement solid waste material with a particle size of greater than 12 mm and less than 25 mm, the voids in the large-diameter crushed stone can be fully filled, achieving dense filling, thereby constructing a skeleton-dense structure, further improving splitting strength, and reducing deflection value.
[0052] Specifically, the mass ratio of asphalt pavement solid waste material with a particle size of less than 8 mm, asphalt pavement solid waste material with a particle size greater than 8 mm and less than 12 mm, and asphalt pavement solid waste material with a particle size greater than 12 mm and less than 25 mm is (4.0-5.0):(1.5-2.0):(2.5-3.2). When the mass ratio of asphalt pavement solid waste material with a particle size of less than 8 mm, asphalt pavement solid waste material with a particle size greater than 8 mm and less than 12 mm, and asphalt pavement solid waste material with a particle size greater than 12 mm and less than 25 mm is (4.0-5.0):(1.5-2.0):(2.5-3.2), the function of the asphalt pavement solid waste material can be most effectively exerted.
[0053] Furthermore, in this invention, the moisture content of the asphalt pavement solid waste material is below 3%; and based on the mass of the asphalt pavement solid waste material as 100%, the content of the old asphalt is 3-5%. By using asphalt pavement solid waste material, this invention allows for the full utilization of the old asphalt within the material, requiring only a small amount of supplementary asphalt to obtain recycled asphalt-stabilized crushed stone material.
[0054] In some specific implementation schemes, the crushing value of asphalt pavement solid waste materials with a particle size greater than 4.75 mm and less than 25 mm is below 26%. When the crushing value of these materials is below 26%, they are less likely to be crushed under repeated vehicle loads, forming a stable interlocking skeleton structure with enhanced compressive strength. Asphalt pavement solid waste materials with a particle size greater than 4.75 mm and less than 25 mm can be obtained through screening.
[0055] This invention utilizes the flexible deformation capacity of solid waste materials from asphalt pavement, and through gradation optimization and precise compaction processes, reduces reflective cracking after traffic commencement, increasing fatigue durability by more than 30% compared to cement-stabilized crushed stone.
[0056] By using the recycled asphalt-stabilized crushed stone material of this invention, high-value recycling of solid waste materials from asphalt pavement can be achieved, reducing solid waste accumulation and mining.
[0057] Large-diameter crushed stone
[0058] The large-diameter crushed stone of this invention has a particle size greater than 30 mm and less than 50 mm. This invention uses large-diameter crushed stone as the main skeleton of the recycled asphalt stabilized crushed stone material, thereby forming a skeleton interlocking structure. The interlocking effect between the large-diameter crushed stones can resist load deformation and is beneficial for the dense filling of solid waste materials in asphalt pavements.
[0059] In this invention, based on the total mass of the substrate as 100%, the content of large-diameter crushed stone is 18%-32%. When the content of large-diameter crushed stone is 18%-32%, it is beneficial to form a skeleton interlocking structure, which enables the dense filling of solid waste materials in asphalt pavement, thereby obtaining the desired recycled asphalt stabilized crushed stone material.
[0060] In some specific implementation schemes, the crushing value of the large-diameter crushed stone is below 26%. When the crushing value of the large-diameter crushed stone is below 26%, it ensures that the crushed stone possesses good resistance to crushing, forming a stable interlocking skeleton, effectively improving the bearing capacity and deformation resistance of the pavement structure, while avoiding excessive particle crushing and gradation loss during construction compaction, ensuring a uniform and dense structural layer. The moisture content of the large-diameter crushed stone is below 2%.
[0061] Other components
[0062] This invention also includes supplementary asphalt and a recycling agent. Since asphalt pavement solid waste materials contain old asphalt, only a small amount of asphalt needs to be added, and appropriate recycling agents are used to obtain recycled asphalt-stabilized crushed stone materials.
[0063] In this invention, the asphalt pavement solid waste material contains recycled asphalt, and the content of the recycling agent is 7%-9% of the recycled asphalt. The invention does not impose any particular limitation on the recycling agent; it can be a recycling agent commonly used in the art. Specifically, the recycling agent can be one or a combination of two or more of the following: RA-25 type recycling agent, Runqiang-RA102 asphalt recycling agent, JM-RA recycling agent, etc.
[0064] Since solid waste materials for asphalt pavement contain a significant amount of old asphalt, only a small amount of additional asphalt is needed. Specifically, based on the total mass of the substrate (100%), the content of the additional asphalt is 0.86%-1.44%. The type of additional asphalt is not particularly limited in this invention; it can be any asphalt commonly used in the art, such as 70# road petroleum asphalt.
[0065] The recycled asphalt stabilized crushed stone material of the present invention is suitable for heavy traffic sections (such as national and provincial trunk highways) and old road repair projects, and can maintain stable performance in complex climate areas such as high temperature (road surface temperature above 70°C) and rainy areas.
[0066] <Preparation Method>
[0067] A second aspect of the present invention provides a method for preparing a recycled asphalt-stabilized crushed stone material according to the first aspect of the present invention, comprising the step of mixing the components of the recycled asphalt-stabilized crushed stone material;
[0068] Preferably, the preparation method includes the following steps:
[0069] Heat the solid waste material of asphalt pavement to 130-150℃, heat the large-diameter crushed stone to 180-200℃, and heat the supplementary asphalt to 155-165℃.
[0070] The heated large-diameter crushed stone and solid waste material from asphalt pavement are first put into a mixing pot and dry-mixed for 30-60 seconds. Then, a recycling agent is added, followed by the addition of heated supplementary asphalt and wet-mixed for 30-60 seconds. The material is discharged after the temperature is controlled at 160-170℃ to prepare recycled asphalt stabilized crushed stone material.
[0071] The mixing method of this invention can solve the problem of segregation in large-particle-size mixtures, resulting in a low standard deviation of smoothness. This allows for a thinner base course in subsequent road structures.
[0072] <Second aspect>
[0073] A second aspect of the present invention provides a road surface structure, which comprises, from top to bottom, a top layer, a bottom layer, a base layer, a first water-stabilized base layer, and a second water-stabilized base layer; wherein the base layer comprises recycled asphalt-stabilized crushed stone material according to the first aspect.
[0074] This invention improves the pavement's resistance to reflective cracking and its load-bearing capacity by using recycled asphalt-stabilized crushed stone as a flexible base layer, i.e., a stress-dissipating layer, between the asphalt surface layer and the semi-rigid base layer.
[0075] In some specific implementation schemes, the construction process of the recycled asphalt stabilized crushed stone material includes the following steps:
[0076] Paving steps: Paving is carried out using a paver. Preferably, the paving temperature is not lower than 155℃, the loose paving coefficient is 1.20-1.30, and the paving speed is 2-3m / min.
[0077] Compaction steps: A combined compaction process is used to compact the base course.
[0078] In some specific implementations, the compaction step includes initial compaction, intermediate compaction, and final compaction; wherein, the initial compaction includes vibratory compaction using a double-drum roller, the intermediate compaction includes compaction using a rubber-tired roller, and the final compaction includes static compaction using a double-drum roller.
[0079] In some specific implementations, in this invention, the initial compaction can be achieved by vibratory compaction with a double-drum roller for 2 or more passes at a speed of 2-3 km / h, with an initial temperature ≥150℃; the secondary compaction can be achieved by compaction with a rubber-tired roller for 7-8 passes, followed by vibratory compaction with a single-drum roller for 2-3 passes, and vibratory compaction with a double-drum roller for 2-4 passes, at a speed of 4-5 km / h; the final compaction can be achieved by static compaction with a double-drum roller for 2 or more passes at a speed of 3-4 km / h, with a final surface temperature ≥110℃.
[0080] In some specific implementation schemes, the road structure consists of, from top to bottom, a top layer, a bottom layer, a base layer, a first water-stabilized base layer, and a second water-stabilized base layer; wherein, the top layer is an SMA-13 type asphalt mixture; the bottom layer is an AC-20 type asphalt mixture; the base layer is a recycled asphalt stabilized crushed stone material layer according to any one of claims 1-5; and both the first water-stabilized base layer and the second water-stabilized base layer are cement stabilized crushed stone layers.
[0081] The present invention does not impose any particular limitation on the construction process of other layers; any feasible construction process in the field may be used.
