Evaluating Rutting Susceptibility of Bituminous Mixes using Indigenously Developed IIT KGP Rut Tester
Abstract: Rutting is the major mode of distress affecting the service life and performance of bituminous pavements. Rutting occurs due to excessive stresses on subgrade, inadequate strength of bituminous mix, inadequate thickness of pavement layers or poor construction methods. Among these causes, quality of bituminous mix is one of the main factors that contribute towards rutting failure. The link between laboratory testing and potential field performance of bituminous mixes is very …
