Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of highway engineering, and particularly relates to an inverted asphalt pavement structure. Background Technique

[0002] In recent years, the construction of asphalt pavements in China has also shown a trend towards long-life asphalt pavements. However, China is not willing to completely abandon the semi-rigid base structure that has been used for a long time. Instead, it is more inclined to improve this structure. The inverted structure is one of the mainstream practices. The inverted structure refers to the inversion of the base layer, that is, using inorganic binder stabilized materials with higher stiffness in the sub-base layer, and using flexible graded crushed stone or asphalt stabilized materials in the base layer. In current relevant patents in China, the design of the inverted asphalt pavement structure mostly involves the inversion of the upper and lower layers inside the asphalt layer and the base layer. Substantially, it is still in the form of a semi-rigid base asphalt pavement structure, not a true inverted asphalt pavement structure. It also does not consider the need to set a seal layer on the graded crushed stone layer during construction in rainy weather, and lacks the design of the cushion layer and the improvement layer, and fails to fully display the inverted asphalt pavement structure, and cannot effectively solve the problem of reflective cracking of asphalt pavements.

[0003] Nowadays, in the project of assisting in the construction of Africa, Chinese enterprises need to follow French standards for road structure construction, and this premise is to be familiar with the pavement structure. The inverted asphalt pavement structure was proposed by France in 1988 to solve the problem of reflective cracks in semi-rigid bases. Therefore, in order to address the deficiencies of existing research results and effectively solve the problem of reflective cracking of semi-rigid base asphalt pavements, it is necessary to propose an inverted asphalt pavement structure based on French standards.
