Author:Verhaeghe, Benoit MJA; Myburgh, PA; Denneman, EDate:Sep 2007The paper seeks to redress the concerns expressed at the eight Conference on Asphalt pavements for Southern Africa (CAPSA) that the design of hot-mix asphalt did not adequately address prevention of rutting. It presents a consolidation of ...Read more
Author:Anochie-Boateng, Joseph; Denneman, E; Verhaeghe, Benoit MJADate:Jul 2011The South Africa National Road Agency Ltd has entered into a research and laboratory testing agreement with the CSIR to support the revision of the South African Pavement Design Method (SAPDM). The research includes characterising a bitumen-rubber ...Read more
Author:Nokes, WA; Harvey, JT; Du Plessis, L; Long, F; Stolarski, PJDate:Aug 1997By combining the results of both the HVS and laboratory tests, interpretations of pavement performance are described and recommendations for pavement design and construction have been made to Caltrans.Read more
Author:Steyn, WJvdM; Denneman, E; Mahlangu, SDate:Jul 2008In this paper the focus is on the comparison between the permanent deformation behaviour of the standard HMA mix and one rut resistant HMA mix of which the grading differs from that of the standard HMA mix. The permanent deformation has been ...Read more
Author:Denneman, E; Steyn, WJVDM; Maina, JW; Sadzik, ESDate:Oct 2008This paper is based on a study into the rutting performance of HMA which forms part of the larger research initiative. The objective of this phase is to identify and develop appropriate test protocols and associated acceptance criteria for ...Read more
Author:George, Theresa B; Anochie-Boateng, Joseph; Jenkins, KJDate:Sep 2020In South Africa research is currently under way to determine the suitability of using locally available recycled crushed glass as a partial fine aggregate substitute in the production of asphalt mixes. This paper characterises the laboratory ...Read more
Author:Theyse, HLDate:Mar 1999Transportek has been involved in accelerated pavement testing (APT) with a fleet of Heavy Vehicle Simulators (HVSs) over the past two decades. During this period, a vast amount of pavement response and performance data has been accumulated, ...Read more
Author:Anochie-Boateng, Joseph; Tutumluer, E; Carpenter, SHDate:2008Oil sand, or tar sand, is a generic name given to bituminous sand deposits that are rich in bitumen or asphalt content to the extent that oil can be extracted from these deposits. The typical 8% to 15% presence of bitumen in the soil composition ...Read more
Author:Anochie-Boateng, Joseph; Maina, JDate:Jan 2012The South Africa National Road Agency Limited together with the CSIR are undertaking a research and development project to support the revision of the South African mechanistic-empirical pavement design method. An important part of this project ...Read more
Author:Mabuse, MM; Anochie-Boateng, Joseph; Komba, Julius J; Ndambuki, JMDate:Jul 2013The effect of aggregate shape properties such as angularity, texture, sphericity, roundness, flat and elongation on the performance of asphalt mixes have not been thoroughly investigated using direct measurement techniques. This is partly ...Read more
Author:Anochie-Boateng, Joseph; Tutumluer, EDate:Feb 2012Oil sands are natural deposits of bituminous sand materials that are mined and processed for crude oil. They are routinely used in oil sand fields for building temporary and sometimes permanent roads serving mining and hauling activities. ...Read more
