The invention relates to a design method of an ultra-compact
asphalt mixture. The design method comprises the following steps: S1, selecting the grading type of the
asphalt mixture, the number and particle size specification of composition specifications of coarse aggregate, and the types and specifications of fine aggregate and mineral
powder filler; s2, acquiring
physical property parameters of the selected aggregates; s3A: generating a plurality of groups of mineral aggregate proportions, establishing a main skeleton
discrete element model of each mineral aggregate proportion, and calculating a mineral aggregate void rate and a main skeleton tight loading density of a coarse aggregate main skeleton; s3B, calculating the designed
void ratio according to the grading type and the coarse aggregate composition specification; s4, respectively calculating the
asphalt dosage of each group of mineral aggregate proportion; and S5, calculating the
powder-binder ratio and the
oil film thickness of each group of mineral aggregate proportion, and selecting the mineral aggregate proportion of which the
powder-binder ratio and the
oil film thickness accord with a preset range as specific parameters of the asphalt mixture. According to the design method of the super-compact asphalt mixture, the super-compact asphalt mixture can be designed.
