  Influence of Microcrack Healing on Interface Bond Shear Strength of Asphalt Concrete

  By Saad Issa Sarsam, Samah Abdulrazzaq AL Nuaimi

  Abstract: The flexible pavement layers are susceptible to cracks throughout its service life under the repeated loading and environmental impact. However, microcracks can heal itself through rest period and variation in temperature. In this investigation, the influence of microcrack healing on the interface shear strength of asphalt concrete was assessed. Two types of tack coat (rapid curing cutback RC-70 and cationic medium setting emulsion CMS) and three application rates have been …
