Marshall Stability Test

Marshall Stability Test adopted by US Corps of Engineers is a semi-confined compression test which is

comparable to a triaxial test with a cell pressure of about 0.7 kg/sqcm.

Hveem Stabilometer and Cohesiometer Tests

Hveem Stabilometer embodies main characteristics of triaxial test. It requires kneading compactor.

Types of Bituminous Mixes

 Dense graded

 Open graded

Desirable Properties

 Stability: resistance to deformation

 Density: degree of compaction

 Durability: resistance against weathering

 Flexibility: extent of deformation before failure

 Resistance to skidding

 The Marshall Test is made to obtain optimum binder

content for the type of aggregate mix and traffic intensity.

 This stability test is applicable to hot-mix design using

bitumen and aggregates with maximum size of 25mm.

 Stability: The Marshall Stability of the mix is defined as a

maximum load carried by a compacted specimen at a standard test temperature at 60°C and at the rate of 5 cm per minute.

 Flow value: The flow value is the deformation the

Marshall test specimen undergoes during the loading, upto the maximum load, in 0.25 mm units.

(7)

Design Steps

 Select grading to be used.

 Select aggregates to be employed in the mix.

 Determine the proportion of each aggregate required to produce the design grading.

 Determine the specific gravity

 Make up the trial specimens with varying bitumen contents.

 Determine the specific gravity of each compacted specimen.

 Make stability tests on the specimen.

 Calculate the percentage of voids, VMA and the percent VFB in each specimen.

 Select the optimum bitumen content.

 Check the values of Marshall Stability, Flow, Voids in total mix, VFB with optimum bitumen content.

Apparatus

 Marshall Mould: Cylindrical moulds of 10 cm diameter, 7.5 cm height with interchangeable base plate and

collar.

 Sample Extractor: a jack or compression machine

Prime Coat (Clause 502)

 It is a low viscosity bituminous emulsion on untreated absorbent base in preparation for a bituminous course.

 Uses

 To plug the capillary voids

 To coat and bond loose materials on the surface  To harden or toughen the surface

 To promote adhesion between the layer being primed and the

(45)

Tack Coat (Clause 503)

 It’s a low viscosity liquid bituminous binder to an existing

bituminous surface.

 Uses

 It is used to ensure a bond between the new construction and

the old surface.

 When an additional course is applied within a couple of days

on a freshly laid bituminous layer that has not been used by traffic or on an old bituminous rich surface in warm weather, the Tack Coat may be dispensed with.

(46)

Liquid Seal Coat (Clause 513)

 It comprises of an application of a layer of bituminous binder over an existing bituminous surface, followed by a cover of stone chipping.

 Uses

 The application of Liquid Seal Coat over an existing

bituminous surface is for the purpose of sealing the voids in the bituminous surface.

(47)

Bituminous Penetration Macadam (Clause 505)

 It is a compacted layer of coarse aggregates into which bituminous binder is introduced. The binder penetrates into the layer through the voids and binds the stone

aggregates. Key aggregates are spread on surface and rolled so as to fill in the surface voids in the coarse

aggregate layer.

 Uses

 It is not advocated for use in heavily trafficked situations.  It is used in the remote area where it is difficult to transport

mixing and laying equipments.

 It may be used as a temporary emergency material to repair a

(48)

Built-up spray grout (Clause 506)

 It consists of two-layer composite construction of

compacted crushed coarse aggregate with application of bituminous binder after each layer and key

aggregates on top for the second layer.

 It is similar to Penetration Macadam but with less interlock and binder.

 Uses

 It is used only for emergency repair work and other temporary

(49)

Surface Dressing (Clause 510)

 A thin film of bituminous binder is sprayed onto the road surface, covered with a layer of stone chippings and

well rolled.

 Uses

 Used for relatively lightly trafficked roads, over gravel or other

untreated road bases to reduce dust nuisance.

 To protect freshly laid WBM, WMM.  It acts as a water-proof seal.

 To increase the skid resistance of smooth surface.  To act as a temporary bituminous surface on newly

constructed roads so as to allow for settlements due to traffic before costlier bituminous layers are provided.

(50)

Fog Spray (Clause 518)

 A Fog Spray is a light application of a slow-setting emulsion diluted with water on an existing surface.

 Uses

 To renew an old bituminous surface that has become dry and

brittle with age.

 To seal small cracks and surface voids

 To inhibit ravelling and whip-off of chippings by traffic on newly

 Types

 Open graded (Bituminous Macadam, BM)
